I really believe that in this industry we can never stop growing. Since I started at Butchers in April, I’ve felt such a sincere passion for my career again. I’ve always loved my job, but it just feels different lately.

That being said, I tried something a little different with my mom when she was visiting. We’ve been doing highlights and a root tap to grey blend since 2020, but her hair is really fragile, so having to lift the tap, and avoid overlapping on her fine hair is not the best. She also never feels blonde enough, but her hair can’t take more.
•
She had a full head done a few months ago, so this time, I decided to shift focus. I did a half head of slices, air touched. This will make it easier to avoid overlapping in the future AND avoid doing a root tap! Underneath I only did six hairline highlights for when her hair is up, but I went through and tediously picked up each dark piece in her ends to balayage.
•
What we achieved is giving her a much brighter, and softer feel, while avoiding any overlap, and setting ourselves up for safer future applications. What I achieved is giving my mom her blonde dreams 🩷

Literally couldn’t have done it without ! We used the fabulous new high lift enlightened, and miraculous oil, as well as all the botanical repair along the way!
