hair magic confirmed 🔮when your guest sends a selfie and calls you a hair wizard…
over here feeling charmed 🪄

The honest truth is this:
This journey hasn’t been easy — not for him, not for me.
Sobriety asks for a kind of courage most people never witness.
And being married through it means feeling everything: the history, the old hurts, the resentment that sneaks in, the unspoken words, the moments where patience feels like the hardest thing in the world.
And the bigger truth?
We’re still in it.
It’s not a one-time choice tied up with a bow.
It’s a living, breathing path that needs constant tending —
nurturing, honesty, space, repair,
yelling when it’s real,
crying when it’s needed,
and love and reverence woven through it all.
We’re still walking it — together and individually — always learning how to meet each new layer.
When he chose sobriety… I chose to walk the path with him.
Not as a shadow, not as a savior — but as a partner, shoulder to shoulder, choosing the work, the healing, the devotion it would take to rebuild and reimagine our life.
One of the most beautiful parts of his journey has been watching him find nature as his church —
the place where he returns to his body instead of escaping it.
Where the woods steady him.
Where the mountains clear him.
Where the trails give him back to himself.
This has become his grounding, his medicine, his way home.
And now — 13 years. 12/12/2012
A date aligned with portals, patterns, and divine timing.
It is one of the deepest honors of my life to walk this path beside you, Jamie.
I’m forever grateful we chose sobriety — both of us — and everything that choice continues to reveal.
So today…
we CELEBRATE YOU.
We HONOR YOU.
Thirteen years of choosing you.
Choosing life — real, grounded, embodied life.
Choosing presence instead of escape.
Choosing the highest timeline available.
Opening doors to new beginnings — for yourself, for us, for our whole family.
I love you endlessly — through the light, the fire, the process, the continual becoming — through every version of us across every timeline in this brilliant multiverse. 💫

Ritual isn’t just for birthday candles…
It’s in your hair flip, your morning coffee, your favorite braid - each act is a tiny spell of self-love.
In my chair, a haircut isn’t a “service.”
It’s a pause, a little fire, a lot of becoming. 🔮💛

Carrying her own daylight ✨even in these grey skies . A little trim, a little magic, and suddenly the day feels brighter.

Lately the reflections have been loud. Winter, the PNW medicine, all these memories rising like fog off the river. And then I read a line that stopped me in my tracks:

“Is that all aging is? Leaving things you knew and once loved behind to become something brand-new?”

I’ve never felt the dread around age that so many people talk about. Age has always been a sensation to me — an energy, not a number. A way of moving through time (if time is even real at all). But here on this earthly plane… I can feel it, the same way the trees feel the seasons and the rivers feel their own reshaping.

And maybe that’s the point.
Not aging, but unfolding.

A long, slow opening into deeper versions of myself — the ones winter coaxes forward in whispers and the ones that come roaring out of the dark with their own feral truth.

There’s a quiet permission rising in me lately, and it comes with its own wild edge:
I’m allowed to keep changing.
I’m allowed to be tender and untamed.
Soft with myself, and still wild enough to break old patterns open.
Gentle in my remembering, and fierce in my becoming.
Both the comfort and the catalyst.

I’m allowed to outgrow, to molt, to surprise myself.
Allowed to let the past versions rest with gratitude, while the next version claws its way toward the light.

This season feels like permission —
permission to be new,
permission to be honest,
permission to be both the quiet winter moss
and the wild river beneath the ice.

Maybe that’s the real medicine of moving through time:
letting myself be everything I am, tender and feral,
all at once.

Proof that a haircut is 50% technique and 50% soul alchemy 😉✨
She came in ready for a shift… and she walked out glowing.
A brand-new vibe activated and a full-body exhale.

Gray strands are a sign the body is keeping you safe.
Whether you let them shine or blend them with color, honor the wisdom woven into every strand.

After two years, a baby, and two moves, she found me—even after I had moved salons myself—because she loved her hair and how it made her feel. She asked for a photo together after taking a selfie for her husband, and my heart melted. Some connections truly circle back at just the right time.

Why Ritual Turns Beauty from Performance into Experience
1. Ritual slows the nervous system enough for sensation to return.
Most hair services happen while we’re rushed, braced, or “on.”
When we add ritual — a breath, a pause, a brushing moment — your body softens.
And once the body softens, feeling has space to return.
Performance lives in tension.
Presence lives in softness.
Ritual creates that softness.
2. Ritual brings us into the moment instead of watching from the outside.
Performance is external: How do we look? What will others think? Are we doing it right?
Ritual draws attention inward: What do we feel? What’s moving in us? What wants to shift?
When we are inside your own experience, beauty becomes sensory and emotional — not a presentation.
3. Ritual helps us drop the “beauty script.”
We walk into salons with years of internalized messaging:
• How we should look
• What we should fix
• What’s acceptable
• What’s too much or not enough
Ritual interrupts that autopilot.
It says: Let’s pause the script and meet the real us.
And in that pause, we begin to feel instead of perform.
4.Ritual reconnects us with our own intuition.
Without ritual, we often choose based on trend, fear, habit, or comparison.
With ritual, we can sense:
• What expression feels true
• What our body is drawn toward
• What version of ourselves is emerging
It’s no longer about impressing anyone — it’s about alignment.
Beauty becomes felt because it’s chosen from within, not from approval-seeking.
5. Ritual brings meaning into the physical act.
Brushing becomes grounding.
Cutting becomes release.
Styling becomes embodiment.
The mirror becomes a moment of seeing, not evaluating.
Meaning turns the experience inward.
Meaning lets beauty land as a lived sensation, not a performance.

There was something quietly meaningful about this one, and I felt it.
Not because of the length or the shape, but the energy.
There was a tenderness in the room—a quiet unfolding that felt like witnessing someone meet themselves with just a little more softness.
And the way she looks to the side in the after felt like a soft moment of remembering herself again.💫

Every grief has a message.
Every grief marks a threshold.
Grief breaks down what the heart can’t hold alone, and in that dissolving, our compassion grows for ourselves and for the people around us.
Often grief is not pulling us backward — it’s inviting us forward.
