Untouched canvas - subtle chunky highlight

Diana came in with virgin hair, aka a hairdressers dream, & an inspo pic of some bright blonde chunky pieces. After further consultation, we decided a more subtle & blended version of this was what she wanted, & if she ever wanted to go heavier with the highlights we can. At the end of our appointment we both were satisfied with the result & had to obvi have a lil photoshoot 📸

Let me know if pic 2 is aesthetic or not I can’t decide😛

First Bride of 2026👰‍♀️

5:45 starts aren’t easy for everyone, but Kara and her crew made it a breeze. We had the best morning and even w/ the weather being worrisome, it all turned out perfect. I’ve known Kara for majority of our lives, plus her & her HUSBAND have literally been together since middle school, so to see her enter this new chapter is a full circle moment for sure. 🥹

Congrats to the newly weds!! I can’t wait for a year of fun Saturday mornings 🤍💍

No big changes, just a lil maintenance👩‍🔧

I hadn’t seen Alexa in since right before Thanksgiving, so she was due for a trim & medium foil highlight refresh✨ Even with us having such a large gap between appointments, not a ton of foiling was needed due to her prior consistency in my chair— her base was pretty perfect, we just needed to tweak the details such as face framing & lowlighting where it’s gotten too bright.

I’m personally loving the more natural color w/ subtle customization that I’ve seen trending so far this year! What do you think? 💭

Visual recap of the last lil bit 📸🧚🏼‍♀️

After the new year, my motivation regarding social media went down📉 With the weather warming up I can start to feel my spark return thankfully 😅 I know I’m not the only one in a slump especially when the world is as crazy as it is, & one thing I’ve tried to remember to do is give myself grace. Sometimes it may be too much and I end up doomscrolling when I should be editing, BUT at least I’m not forcing myself through additional stressors on top of whatever else may be coursing through my noggin🧠
Be easy on not just yourself, but those around you, & soak up ALL the sunshine available to charge up for THE BEST SUMMER EVERRRRR 🤪🫶🏼
(istg if we don’t all make it a 2016 remake I’m gonna be disappointed)

My goal of social media consistency in 2026 still stands- we’re just getting started bbg 🤏🙂‍↕️

She is an absolute ball of sunshine wow ☀️
I have no words other than I’m simply obsessed with this hair & the sweet girl wearing it 🤗

Rachel blessed me w/ the BEST canvas ever— untouched, natural hair 😱🤩🤭
After a lil while of teasing and foiling, my beautiful canvas was enhanced & highlighted, and we LOVED IT!
Initially, Rachel thought we could’ve gone a tad darker with the gloss, but later texted me that she was vibing with the current tone & would wait til later. I cannot wait to see how we customize her look over time & overall I’m 10/10 pleased with our results ☺️

I recorded this entire process so anticipate a video… one day… I don’t know when 🤪❤️

give me an untouched canvas & let me werk

Taryn hadn’t touched her hair in quite a bit, & wow wow was I excited to have her in my chair 🤪 she wanted to be blonde, not too warm but not too ashy, & keeping some of that natural dimension throughout. She also wanted some more movement throughout her hair so we added some face framing & layers. We finished off with a good blowout, a touch of iron work, and of course a lil photoshoot 🥳

I’m so so excited for another year full of foiling and end results like this one 🫶🏼
