My favorite hairstyle as a busy mom and business owner.
This sleek ponytail is perfect for a dirty hair day or really any morning you might not have a lot of time.

3 favorite products:
IGK dry shampoo( a must have!)
TIGI wax stick(killer for the craziest fly aways)
Matrix hairspray(holds all day)

Tools you will need
Shower cap(so important so your hair doesnt get wet) *do not put your hair up tight like this if it is wet. It will cause breakage! Hair is mu ch more fragile when it is wet*
Comb
Teasing brush(you can get these at Sally’s)

This is my go to hairstyle for busy mornings and long days. I can do this in 5-minutes and not have to worry about it for the rest of the day.

Mamas, who can agree that the wintertime can make you feel SO down and drab and sometimes a change is the best thing in the world?!🙋‍♀️

I have been and know myself that sometimes even the smallest change can really make a difference in mood and mental health!

Blanca gets her balayage done every 3-4 months and this appointment really wanted to try curtain bangs. How cute is she?!!

Highlights that blend gray and grow out seamlessly.
My goal is for your hair to still look good when you come in for your next appointment.

Kacie is a busy mom of 2 and works full time. She gets her highlights done every 8-10 weeks and it takes about 2-2.5 hours. She works while her hair is done(which you are always welcome to do!) and leaves with refreshed butter blonde highlights that blend her grays and brightens up her light brown hair.

Each appointment is intentional and productive.
No wasted time!

You don’t come here just for your hair.
You come for a break from real life.
To sit in quiet or adult coversation.
To be seen, heard, and guided, not rushed or needed.

This is for the season where you’re giving a lot.. and choosing, just for a few hours, to receive.

No guilt.
No noise.
Just someone else serving you, intentional beauty, and leaving feeling like you again.

When you’re ready.. this chair is waiting.🩷

This balayage is for my girls who only get their hair done once a year.

You want to look polished in a very low maintenance way. I got you!

Do you love how your hair gets naturally highlighted in the summer from the sun? This is the perfect highlight to get that literally looks SO natural and sunkissed. You feel me?

Balayage hits all the right places and grows out seamlessly. Low maintenance, natural highlights at their best!

Who wants a polished put together look minus the maintenance? comment below👇

I don’t know how many times i have said “i don’t have time to get my hair done” or “I dont have time for myself”.

As a busy mom, wife and business owner i totally understand this, because i live this.

I created my business and highlighting services with this in mind.
👉quick efficient appointments designed with intention and care.
There are no 6 hour appointments(no one has time for that). 2.5-3.5 hours TOPS, depending on your service.

👉long lasting results.
80 percent of my clients get their hair done every 4-6 months and it STILL looks good when they come in.

Pictures above👉 Jess gets her hair done every 3-4 months, 2.5 hour service.

Make the time for yourself. I promise its worth it! Book your highlight appointment today➡️link in bio

We have all been here! Whether your curls dont hold or you look like Shirly Temple(yes im old). Using the correct size curling iron matters. It can save you a ton of time, money and 100% confidence having the right tool.

I personally curl my hair once a week with a 1.25 barrel wand. I like it start as tigher curls because i know my hair will naturally fall over time and i like them to last a couple of days.

How do you like your curls? And what problems are you having? Comment below👇Happy to help!!
Each if my clients have the option to learn how to curl their own hair by checking the box in your pre appointment questionnaire!

First time natural balayage for this busy mama of 4‼️‼️
had never colored her hair before😮
I was so excited to grt my hands on it!
She won the balayage giveaway in December and it was honestly perfect timing for a change after the birth of her 4th baby🩷.

Not wanting to have to get her hair done often we decided on a very subtle natural highlight to bring out what the sun normally does to her hair in the summer.

👉full balayage
👉glaze 9m
👉cut off 4 inches of hair and added long layers and angles to the front.

Love these beautiful results! The baby slept the WHOLE appointment and mom felt leaving confident and pampered. Win win‼️‼️
