I highly recommend prebooking your next appointment before you leave the salon to make sure you get in on time before the holidays!

New chapter in life = new hours!

If you didn’t know, doing hair is not my only job. I recently added a third job into my schedule, and with that will be a slight change in hours.

Don’t worry! I will be available Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday starting at 3pm and taking appointments as late as 6pm! Don’t want to be out too late? Message me and we can work out a morning appointment!

I will be available some Saturdays as well, those will be on an appointment only basis since they will be a little more unpredictable.

October spots have been filling fast! I highly highly recommend prebooking to guarantee your spot if you can!

Hey 👋 long time no see,
Slightly sappy post ahead:

This summer has been a wild ride for me filled with many ups and many downs. Life felt so chaotic and I quickly felt very overwhelmed and burnt out. I completely lost all motivation to grow my business or myself as a person, so for a while I took a step back and just let myself rest.

During that time, I hit my two year anniversary of being in the salon, and soon I will hit my four year anniversary of starting cosmetology school. It’s crazy to look back and see how far I’ve come. From starting my first cosmetology school, creating my first brand, quickly realizing that brand doesn’t fit me and then creating one that does, transferring schools, graduating, interning at what would become my first salon, my first client, my first business card, starting nail services, making some incredible friends, creating some beautiful hair and nails and some messes in the process, and everything in between. If you told me five years ago that this would be my life now, I probably wouldn’t believe you.

Slowing down over the summer has really made me remember just how much I love what I do. Although I do think a break was nice, I’m ready to get back at it in full force and to help you express yourself again.

Anyways, TLDR: I’m back, stay tuned for some announcements within the next few days, book with me and let’s create together 🎨🪩

Curly Hair treatment and a “stereotypical new mom cut” as she called it 🤣❤️

We gave her a goooooood chop and a curly hair treatment to make her hair feel lighter and easier for her to manage!

No idea what to call these nails, but definitely had fun creating them!

We said they looked kind of like a Mexican restaurant in a good way 🤣
