Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💗

Breast cancer has touched my family and friends in ways that have stayed with me. As a hairstylist, I’ve learned that our chair can become a safe space for women going through chemotherapy the hair shedding, emotional ups and downs, tears, laughter, and everything in between.

We all have special gifts. If you know someone going through this season, pour into them. Check on them. Encourage them. Pray for them. Love on them.

Braids are the ultimate gym cheat code. But leaving trapped sweat to dry on your scalp is a fast track to itching, buildup, and odor

Extend your style and protect your scalp with this quick 3-step post-workout reset

Blot the sweat: Use a microfiber towel to gently blot your parts. Never rub. Friction causes frizz.

Neutralize bacteria: Wipe your parts with a cotton pad soaked in witch hazel or a tea tree scalp spray to remove dried sweat salt.

Replenish moisture: Sweat dries out your skin. Mist with a water-based leave-in spray, then seal with a lightweight oil

Sometimes rest is exactly what the soul needs. ❤️ I soaked up every moment with my babies before they headed off to college

💗 My heart is so full 💗

I had the honor of hosting my first annual Glow Up Dinner, a night honoring the legacy of my mother by celebrating cancer survivors and the incredible people who care for them. There was so much love, strength, and joy in the room that it's hard to put into words. It was truly a night I'll never forget.

A heartfelt thank you to the Pink Palmetto Project South Carolina Cancer Alliance for giving me my spark back for philanthropy. This initiative has changed my life in more ways than I could have ever imagined, and I'm so grateful to be a part of this mission.

A special thank you to Sullivan's Metropolitan Grill for sponsoring such a beautiful dinner. Every detail was amazing, and you did not disappoint.

To my daughter, Makayla—thank you for being the best volunteer in the world. Watching you serve with such love made me incredibly proud. McKenzie for the beautiful flyer and video.
