second time around with this vivid pink, swipe to see our before from our first session 🩷

her first appointment with me was a color correction, so our biggest goal was getting her hair onto a more even, workable canvas. now that we’ve had some time to build on that foundation, we can keep pushing the brightness and creating a more seamless, vibrant result.

this is why vivid color corrections can be a process, sometimes the best way to get brighter, more even color is to work with the hair over multiple appointments rather than trying to force everything in one session.

and this time we added the pink brows too, because if we’re going pink… we might as well make it pop 🎀

if you’ve been wanting a bright, customized vivid color but you’re worried your current color history might make it complicated, let’s talk about what’s possible for your hair.

some people come into your life and completely change the direction you’re headed without even realizing it 🤍

i met Sam while i was still in cosmetology school. i was looking for someone who specialized in curly hair, found her work, and immediately knew i wanted to learn from her. i messaged her asking if i could shadow and assist her, and somehow that turned into years of working together, two salons, and one of the friendships i’m most grateful for.

i’ve learned so much from watching the way she does hair, cares for her clients, and shows up for the people around her. she is one of the kindest people i know, an incredible stylist, and someone i’ve always looked up to so much in this industry.

and now she’s officially a boy mom AND a girl mom 🥹 welcome to the world, Monroe! we already miss you so much around the salon, but i’m so happy for you and this little family you’re building. love you endlessly 🤍 🗝️Curly Hair Specialist | Samantha Deignan

fall is the perfect time for a rich dimensional brunette 🤎

believe it or not, this client is naturally a level 8 blonde, but we love taking her darker. by formulating her color to fade softly, she can enjoy a deeper brunette without being left with a harsh line as her natural color grows in.

a little darker, a little richer, and still keeping her future grow out in mind.

if you’re a natural blonde wanting to try a brunette for fall, we can create a color that feels like you and works with your maintenance goals ✨

a few random facts about me since there are some new faces around here 🫶🏻

i was born in minnesota, have two black cats that are sisters, 30+ tattoos, and have been out of the country 5+ times. i love thrifting, spontaneous plans, traveling, and pretty much anything that gives me a good story to tell. summer + fall are definitely my favorite seasons, and i’m a little too invested in perfume + body care.

if you’ve been thinking about booking with me but haven’t made the jump yet, take this as your sign ✨ i’d love to get to know you and have you in my chair!

if you’ve never had your hair colored with Innersense Color Purity, here’s what makes it different:

Color Purity is ammonia free + fragrance free and formulated without PPD, PTD, or resorcinol, while still delivering the coverage, shine, and longevity you expect from professional color.

it also uses nourishing ingredients like moringa, tamanu, and shea butter throughout the color system, so we’re not just thinking about the shade we create, but the experience your hair is getting during the process.

and no, choosing a cleaner color system doesn’t mean sacrificing your results. Color Purity has 40+ intermixable shades, allowing me to customize your formula instead of giving you a one size fits all color.

that’s what makes it worth the investment. you’re getting professional, customizable color without compromising on the things that matter to you or your hair.

once you experience the difference, it’s hard to go back ✨

i’m all about creating the right color for your hair, your lifestyle, and how you want to maintain it ✨

this was her second time in my chair for a lived in look. the first appointment, we intentionally kept her more dimensional and natural. this time, we were able to take her significantly lighter while still keeping enough depth and softness for a seamless grow out.

because good blonding isn’t just about how your hair looks when you leave the salon. i’m thinking about how it will look 2, 4, and 6 months from now, how your hair will hold up, and what we’ll want to do at your next appointment.

that’s why I don’t believe in a one size fits all blonde. your color should be custom built around you, not a formula copied from someone else’s hair.

if you’ve been wanting to go lighter but still want a low maintenance blonde that grows out beautifully, this is your sign to book your consultation ✨
