A lil faux blow out never hurt anybody 🌟

We did a full highlight and cut and then I used my Olivia Garden 1.25 inch curling iron to give a pinned blow out look in half the time!

The last photo was my highlight/diffusing skills march of 2025, the first 3 are from today!

I used to think diffusing was so difficult but after finding a routine I love that works for almost all curl types, not only do I feel more confident but my clients feel more confidence as well. I also am able to give education for you guys as clients to take home and use on yourself which makes your life much easier and not so complicated ➰❤️

Curly girly all day long ➰

She only wanted to add layers, and not touch her length because this was her first curly cut and she was so so nervous! But I talked her through the whole process step by step and didn’t cut some parts until she told me she was comfortable. Sometimes that’s just what we have to do as curly girls, because haircut trauma is REAL!!!

But it came out beautiful and so healthy and shiny looking and feeling which is always my goal when you sit in my chair!

Is a caption even needed?

No but fr this f*cking devoured 🍽️

What to ask for:

Full Lived-in Blended Highlight, still wanting some dimension, with a bright cool toned blonde! (!!Results will vary depending on your natural base!!)

For the haircut, longer layers with the shortest point at the shoulder, with face framing that starts around the lip and a more V shape in the back and a blow out for the styles 🤝

Dimensional, Natural, and Bright ✨

This is why I love lived in blonde, if you’re wanting something like this but with your own twist check out the link in my bio!

Mama blonde ✨

A super cute and quick partial foil and a toner!

I used oligo 10GV + 10V + GG to create this natural Barbie blonde 🩷

5 years ago I clocked out of cosmetology school for the last time, completely unsure of where this industry was gonna take me, and not sure about where I even wanted it to take me honestly.

Today I had a new client drive 2 hours to get her hair done by me. She didn’t know me from a hole in the wall, she didn’t know anyone who could vouch for me. All she could do was look at my work, look at my reviews, and trust that I could deliver what she needed. Thats a feeling I can’t fully describe, it lets me know I’m doing something right, every stressful test, every doubt, every mistake lead me here. I can’t say I was born to do hair, but I do believe I was born to help people, I love being able to solve the problem, educating, and just supporting the people who pour so much into me and my career. 5 years truly does pass in the blink of an eye and I’m so excited to see where the next 5 take me 🥂✨

Diving into our appointment, she had been covering her greys but also wanting to be bright blonde, and she felt that after multiple appointments in other areas that something just wasnt working, so we sat and talked and worked through everything that could possibly be an issue. We decided no more permanent color 🚫 and we were gonna do a heavy full impact Blonding session. Then to combat the grey we did a root smudge with Oligo Professionnel toners and 13vol to help blend the grey and only cover about 30% for a smoother grow out. I toned her all over with 9AI 9GI and AV to give a golden beige but BRIGHT result. Safe to say she was glad she made the drive , definitely 100% worth it!

Then I styled with Aluram Pro high shine blow out spray, and a dab of the new Frizz control creme from IdHAIR North America which I am absolutely obsessed with right now.

Another curly girl in desperate need of getting RID of the triangle shape!

We also added in some super cute bangs and face framing and ofc showed her how to diffuse at home ❤️
