Which one are you most excited for — Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year’s? 👇🏻

I don’t do vivids… buuuut I’ll make an exception for the right reason and the right person. 💕

Every September, we do this. Pink hair in preparation for Breast Cancer Awareness Month — and this year marks YEAR 8! 🎀

Eight years of pink. Eight years of tradition. Eight years of showing support in a way that’s become completely ours.

And can we talk about that transformation?! From that gorgeous icy white to PINK with a purpose. 🩷

Some traditions are just too special not to keep.

Year 8 in the books. 🎀🩷

Okayyyy this is a GOOD one! 🙌💕

🍂 NEW SEASON. NEW HAIR. ✂️✨

Pardon the wet hair in the before pic… 😂 but this makeover actually started during her PreTreat clarifying treatment!

We got to talking, and somewhere between the shampoo bowl and the chair we decided…

“Let’s do a new hairdo.” 👀✂️

So we didn’t just change the cut — we changed the COLOR, too! 🤎

We warmed things up and gave her a richer, more fall-friendly color, then took off some length and added movement with a whole new shape.

And THIS is what I mean when I say it’s hair makeover season! 🍂

Sometimes a new season calls for more than a trim. Maybe it’s:
✨ A completely different cut
✨ A new color or warmer tone
✨ Less length + more movement
✨ Or just something that makes you look in the mirror and think “Yep. THAT’S what I needed.”

And sometimes you don’t even have to know exactly what you want when you walk through my door. 😉

Bring me your inspiration, your “I want something different,” or your “what would you do?”

We’ll figure it out together. ❤️

Because this isn’t just a new hairstyle for cooler weather…

It’s a new hairdo for a NEW SEASON. 🍁✂️

Who’s ready for their fall makeover? 👀

🍂 It’s officially starting to look like HAIR MAKEOVER SEASON! ✂️✨

I’ve been cutting her hair for…well, we decided it’s been FOREVER 😂❤️ And one of my favorite parts of having a longtime client is that we can have the conversations:

“Okay…let’s cut some hair off.”
“How much are we talking?” 👀✂️
“A LOT.” 😏

And then we catch up on life, laugh, solve the world’s problems…and somehow I get to send her out with a whole new look. 😉

Sometimes you don’t need a completely different color or some crazy transformation. Sometimes you just need to change the shape, take off some length, add some movement, or finally try the haircut you’ve been thinking about.

🍁 Cooler weather has a funny way of making us want a little change…

So if you’ve been looking in the mirror thinking “I kinda want to do something different…”

I’M IN. 🙋‍♀️✂️

Let’s think outside the box a little. Bring me your inspiration photo, your “I don’t know what I want but I want SOMETHING” energy, or just tell me “take some hair off.” 😂

Your next hairdo might be hiding in plain sight.
Book your fall appointment and let’s see what we can come up with! 🍂🤎

🍂✨ A little warmer… and I’m LOVING it! ✨🍂

We went just a scosh warmer than we normally do, and this dimensional blend of soft caramel, honey and warm blonde tones is giving ALL the fall feels. 🤎

Glossy, dimensional, soft waves… and just enough warmth to make the color feel extra rich without losing that beautiful brightness.

And can we PLEASE talk about these MUCH better temps this week?! 🙌🏼 THANK GOODNESS!! 😂🍁

I think this color is the perfect way to welcome fall. 🤎

And hey… if you’re loving your hair, don’t keep it a secret! 😉 If your friends or family are admiring your new do, send them my way. I’m always grateful when my clients share the love and introduce me to someone new. 🥰

✨ Same beautiful you… just a whole new vibe! ✨

This transformation was ALL about embracing her natural texture and giving those curls room to shine! 😍

A fresh cut can completely change the way your hair looks, feels, and moves—and this one brought out SO much beautiful curl, shape, and movement. 💕

✂️ Less weight
🌀 More definition
✨ More movement
🤎 A whole lot of confidence!

It’s hard to believe it’s been that long. I still remember that day and the feeling that our world had changed forever.

Today we remember the lives lost, the families changed forever, and the heroes who showed us what courage looks like.

25 years later… we remember. We honor. We never forget. ❤️🇺🇸
