What I mean when I say, “I’m a judgement free zone”:

• I refuse to judge the stylist who did this work. We ALL make mistakes and I just hope she’s given the opportunity to learn from hers.

• I refuse to judge my client for seeing someone else! Life was happening for both of us and our schedules just couldn’t align for some time.

• I refuse to judge the establishment that didn’t make this right for her because their poor customer service is exactly what led her back to my chair.

I don’t need to talk poorly about what she came in with. It’s my job to hear what happened, validate how she feels about it, come up with a plan to fix it, and then execute the plan.

My work and experience speaks for itself!

If you’re unhappy with your hair, whether it’s cut or color, I want to help!

Happiest Ostara! ☀️ aka Spring Equinox!

Warm weather is on its way and I couldn’t be happier about it.

Besides planning your garden, it’s also the perfect time to think about highlights, a fresh cut, or a deep conditioning treatment after winter.

Throwback to when my client said, “I don’t know, do whatever you want”!

Decision fatigue is real and sometimes we know we want to try something new but committing feels overwhelming.

What if red hair doesn’t look good on me?

What if I hate it?!

Can I really pull off a bob?

This is when it really matters to have an experienced stylist who understands face shape, color theory, skin tone, and the maintenance level of their clients.

I’ll ask all the right questions to make sure we’re both confident in your hair transformation. I’ll also give you options based on your budget, commitment level, and lifestyle.

If you’re in the greater Lansing area and are looking for a stylist willing to give you options, let’s chat!

With 20 years in this industry here’s the business I will ALWAYS stand on!!!

1️⃣ The integrity of your hair is my TOP priority when doing any blonding service!

What this means:
• We may not achieve your desired results in one session.
• You may have homework after your first appointment in order to keep your hair healthy as we work together to reach your goal.
• I will NEVER intentionally damage your hair for the sake of being as blonde as possible.

2️⃣ Age does NOT determine the length at which you should wear your hair!

What this means:
• There is no determined age at which you need to cut your long hair shorter.
• Long hair doesn’t make you look like you’re trying too hard to look young if it’s cut well and you take care of it.
• Short hair can be sassy and cute at any age. No “Baptist Bubbles” here!

3️⃣ I work for YOU!

What this means:
• I don’t care how your man likes your hair!!!
• I don’t care what your sister thinks!!
• I want YOU to love your hair and I don’t care what anyone else thinks as long as you’re happy!

If you agree give me a 🙌🏻

When it comes to blending gray there are lots of options and those options often have to shift as we see more gray but aren’t ready to fully embrace it.

My goal when I approach gray blending is to make it as easy as possible for you to let it go when you’re ready.

It’s my job to ask questions about your hair goals and make recommendations based, not only on where your hair is today, but where we’re headed in the future.

You may never decide to fully stop coloring your hair. But if you do, it’s my job to make that transition as easy as possible.

The blendiest highlights EVER! ✨

Audrey wanted help making her streak of gray look more intentional while also having subtle all-over brightness.

She wanted it to grow out seamlessly and look as natural as possible. She’s a busy homeschool mom and doesn’t have time to come in to have her color touched up all the time.

I think we nailed it!!!

This color is going to last her months and look even better as her hair gets kissed by the sun this summer. ☀️

If you’re in the Lansing area I want to see you in my chair!

Due to my recent time off of work for surgery, Michele hasn’t been in my chair for quite a while. She was maintaining her color at home by just touching up her roots.

As you can see, she had some excess fading throughout her ends, warm roots, and some banding that you can’t see.

I was able to shift her color formula to give better gray coverage. I also put some depth back into her ends to cancel warmth, fix the banding, and better complement her complexion.

I love helping women find their best hair color and style! If you’re feeling less than thrilled about your hair I want to help. Book a consultation (link in bio) so we can come up with a plan for you to love your hair.

You know 🪻Spring🪻 is in the air when everyone wants a bob!

She came in feeling like her hair was flat, thin, and lacking style.

She left with full, bouncy, manageable hair that’s easier to style and brings out her natural waves.

If you’re ready for a new look for Spring, come see me at My Salon Suites in the Frandor Shopping Center.

You want to cover your grays but you don’t want it to be boring…

Babe, I’ve gotchu!!!

Warmer tones are one of the hardest things to get right when you’re also dealing with a lot of gray. Hot roots can happen SO easily!

Thankfully, I’ve been at this gig for a long time and carry the confidence and know how to get it right.

If you need gray coverage but don’t want it to be dull or boring, come see me at My Salon Suites in Lansing. Link to book in my bio! ✨
