La Vite Salon

🎨 Beautiful color starts before I mix a bowl. I look at your skin’s undertones, your eye color, and the colors you feel best in. The right blonde shouldn’t just look pretty in a photo—it should make you light up.

🧠 Foil placement is intentional. I think about where your hair parts, how it falls around your face, and what the back of your head will look like months from now. If all the brightness is placed in one area, grow-out can leave a big dark spot in the back. Then you’re paying for another full foil just to fix what was missed.

✨ My goal is color that still makes sense between appointments. Once we’ve reached the level of brightness you want, many clients can maintain it with a root refresh and tone around every six weeks, then book a full blonding service about two or three times a year. Your schedule depends on your hair and your goals, but thoughtful placement can mean fewer long appointments and less money spent over time.

🤎 This is Cashmere Crème Blonde: a soft, ashier root with creamy ribbons of brightness placed where they’ll move beautifully and grow out softly. Some angles look warmer in the light; others show that cooler depth. That dimension is what makes it hers.

🤎 If you love fresh color but don’t love feeling like you need another appointment the second your roots show, lived-in color might be your thing.

🎨 Instead of taking every highlight right to the root, I keep some of your natural depth and place brightness where it makes your hair glow. Then I soften the blend so it grows out beautifully.

⏳ The first appointment can take time because we’re creating a color that’s yours. The payoff is a softer grow-out and fewer full color appointments over the months that follow.

🌿 I use natural and organic color from Italy and Australia, chosen for high-quality ingredients and no PPDs. Beautiful color matters to me, and so does what I’m putting on your hair.

🍂 Fall and the holidays are such a good time for a refresh. If you’ve been saving hair photos and wondering whether lived-in color would work for you, DM me “FALL” with a photo of your hair now and one inspiration photo. I’d love to talk through it with you.

The chunky highlights of the early 2000s are making a comeback… but not in the way you remember them.

The biggest difference? Today’s version is completely customized.

I don’t copy a trend and put it on every head of hair. I look at your natural texture, your haircut, the way you wear your part, your maintenance routine, your skin tone, and even how your hair reflects light. All of those details determine how bold, soft, wide, fine, warm, or cool your highlights should be.

That’s the difference between a color that looks trendy for a few weeks and one that looks like it was made specifically for you.

As trends come and go, I actually love stepping outside of the “everyone has the same hair” mindset. Whether it’s chunky ribbons, dimensional brunettes, lived-in blondes, coppers, or something completely unique, hair should reflect you, not just what’s popular on social media.

If you’ve been saving inspiration photos but aren’t sure they’ll work for your hair, let’s talk. Half of my job is creating a version that fits your lifestyle while protecting the integrity of your hair.

Sometimes the right color doesn’t just change your hair, it changes how you feel when you look in the mirror.

Send me a DM if you’re ready for something different. I’d love to help you create a look that’s uniquely yours. 🤍

✨ DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE CHOOSING A “BLONDE SPECIALIST.” ✨

This may ruffle a few feathers, but your hair is too important not to say it.
A stylist isn’t defined by how blonde they can make a natural level 7 in one appointment.

A true blonding specialist understands the science behind lifting ALL hair safely.

Can you take a natural level 2 or 3 to a beautiful blonde? Absolutely.
Can it be done in one appointment? Most of the time, no and it shouldn’t be.
A true specialist creates a long-term plan that protects the integrity of your hair while allowing you to enjoy beautiful shades at every stage of the journey.

🤍 Soft caramel.
🤍 Expensive beige.

🤍 Bright blonde.

Beautiful hair is a marathon, not a race.
One of the biggest mistakes I continue to see is overlapping lightener.
Cosmetology 101 teaches us that once hair has been lightened, you should avoid repeatedly applying bleach over the previously lightened sections unless there’s a very specific reason and technique for doing so.

Why?

Because previously lightened hair especially levels 9 and 10, is already the most fragile part of the strand.
Repeated lightening can lead to:

•Severe breakage
•Elastic, gummy hair
•Banding
•Split ends
• Hair snapping near the scalp

And when that happens, we’re often talking about losing inches of hair, not just needing another toner.

💔 This beautiful guest visited another stylist while traveling and, unfortunately, experienced significant damage from overprocessing.
So what did we do?

🚫 NO bleach.

🚫 NO color correction.
Instead, we rebuilt the foundation.

✨ One Keratin Complex Smoothing Treatment.

Watch to see the transformation.
A Keratin Complex treatment helps:

✔️ Smooth and seal the cuticle
✔️ Reduce frizz dramatically
✔️ Improve manageability
✔️ Reduce breakage caused by mechanical stress
✔️ Cut blow-dry time nearly in half
✔️ Leave the hair looking healthier and feeling incredibly soft

For compromised blondes, I often prioritize rebuilding the hair before considering additional chemical services. Healthy hair always comes first.

This before and after is from ONE treatment.
Results typically last 3–5 months, and many clients maintain them 2–4 times per year.

Hair is an investment.
My goal has never been to get you the lightest blonde in one day.
My goal is to make sure you still have beautiful, healthy hair years from now.
If you’ve been searching for a stylist who values the health of your hair just as much as the final color, I’d love to welcome you into my chair.

✨ Because beautiful blonde starts with healthy hair.

📍Appointments are scheduled in advance, so don’t wait to reach out if you’ve been thinking about making a change.

CHUNKY HIGHLIGHTS ARE BACK. 👏🏼

And honestly? I’m here for it.

The craft may be a seasoned one, but it’s a skill I still love putting to work—especially in a world where it can sometimes feel like everyone is asking for the exact same hair.

✨ Bold dimension. Chunky highlights. Deep lowlights. High contrast. ✨

It’s time to bring back the classics—but make them modern, blended, expensive-looking, and completely your own.

Because your hair doesn’t have to follow every trend.
It doesn’t have to look like everyone else’s.
And it definitely doesn’t have to fit the mold.

Bring back individuality. Bring back contrast. Bring back HAIR with personality. 🔥

Who else is ready for the return of chunky highlights + dimensional lowlights?! 👀

There’s hair extensions… and then there’s true Slavic hair. ✨

Every set I install comes from a single donor, which means the cuticle stays aligned for incredibly soft, natural movement and long-lasting wear. No mixed hair. No floor hair. No return hair. Just premium, buttery-soft hair that blends beautifully.

Whether you’re looking for:
• More length
• Fuller density
• Extra volume
• Or all of the above—I custom color match every install so it looks like the hair grew from your own head.

This gorgeous client has trusted me with her hair for over 8 years. 💛 She’s been with me through every stage of my extension journey and has worn many different brands over the years. After working with so many types of hair, I can honestly say this is the highest quality I’ve ever offered.

Beautiful hair shouldn’t feel out of reach, which is why I also offer financing with no hard credit check.

Sometimes the best investment isn’t another purse or another pair of shoes… it’s feeling confident every time you look in the mirror.

DM me to schedule a consultation and let’s create the hair you’ve been dreaming about.

There is something so satisfying about creating blonde that looks beautiful today and still looks beautiful months from now.

For this appointment, we softened the grow-out, blended her natural gray, brightened her blonde, and gave her a fresh cut that added movement without sacrificing the length she loves.

My goal is never to create hair that needs constant maintenance. I want you to leave with color that grows out naturally, keeps dimension, and still feels effortless weeks later.

Healthy hair will always be the priority. Beautiful color is simply the finishing touch.

If you’ve been thinking about embracing your gray more gracefully or want a blonde that doesn’t leave harsh lines as it grows, I’d love to help you create a plan that’s customized for you.
