I'm working on each client like they are my last client haha. I'll miss the salon so much if we all have to close down for a bit.

Beauty Brunette. I turned her natural hair into highlights!

Salon and Spa by Christian - BeKind updated their website address.

Another day, another beautiful blonding session.

From blunt to beachy.
Can you believe this blend was achieved without me using a drop of color? has the best selection of hair shades.

The best part? It only took two hours (could've done it in one without all the catching up) and she gets to re-use the hair!!

These blue waves make me miss summer already. Love me some mermaid hair! Can't wait to see the fade

Met an amazing client today
SWIPE all they way right FOR THE BEFORE

Her previous apt (not at our salon) wasn't exactly what she wanted- so I created a low maintenance balayage from it!

Protected her hair with every step of the way.

Brightening with Balayage. Low and slow is the only way I go! But I'll make each step along the way look amazing 😁

Beige Balayage. If you can pull off warmer tones it's so much less maintenance!

Apple Red

Vanilla and Violet

Born to be Blonde. Thanks for keeping us healthy. Thank you
for keeping us smooth.

Clarifying treatment and a blended balayage. Makes for a fun Friday!

Another for the books!

CONFESSION. Sometimes it's hard to stop touching my clients hair.

Warm Waves 🤩

Everything about this photo shows who I am as an artist. Vibrant color with low maintenance and minimalistic styling. Corrective color (home haircolor) to golden magenta.

PULP RIOT and Faction 8 mixed with all over application blonde and tone. Coated with and .

Blonde AF Nordic White blended w/ a meld to her natural root..

And imagine what it would look like under a ring light, styled, curled, and with a filter over it 😂. Love that my client understood that the process takes time.

Happy I got to retouch this one again! Stunning, especially in person.

No bright lights. Just natural beauty! Had a balayage today that I treated and styled with .

From brass to ash! Didn't have time to style (super busy day), but it was gorgeous.

HAIR EDUCATION 📖
During my consultation- my client mentioned she had hard water (being from a small town in MN I'm very familiar with this). She previously had a color and highlights, but had a lot of mineral build up from her water at home (scroll right to see the before). She wanted her ashy hair back, but due to her hair being so long and previously lightened- I didn't want to lighten it again... because long hair isn't pretty unless it's healthy folks!
🤔💭
We skipped the lightener and started with a hard water treatment. This cleared a lot of the residue and made a great canvas for my brass buster formula.
😀😀
NO lightener, NO damage, and a beautiful head of healthy blonde hair. I hope as fellow stylists we ask the correct questions (sometimes clients will blame the last stlyist they went to for brassiness!). Thankfully, this client knew what the issue was, but sometimes we need to educate! Clearly the stlyist who lightend her hair last did a beautiful meld! We also cut about 4 inches off and we both thought it was stunning 😍

Blonde and Tone/Color Correction. So happy to be a part of transformations like this every day.

And she's back to red. Looks amazing!

Partial foil- needed to blend quite a bit of regrowth. She had so much hair so I didn't get time to style, but wow what a beautiful service. Toned her highlights to an ashy 10 (salon lights are really warm in this photo).

And we have a rockstar! Lightened globally w/ my favorite gentle lightener and . Followed with deep conditioning treatment and her hair felt amazing. Toned w/ 9V, 9B, 9N, and 00.

Varied Violets. I'm so grateful that people are beginning to recognize my vibrants and to keep getting booked with services like this. I'm having a blast doing them!
