Three years in a row is crazy 🥹 
Forever pinching myself to have the opportunity to be able to meet incredible people and be some sort of vessel of encouragement to being the best, healthiest, happiest version of yourself - even if it is through hair 😂 

(Let’s be real most of our sessions are either therapy appointments or philosophical lectures, good hair is just a perk 🤣) 

Needless to say I love you all more than I can put in to words and I am overflowing with universal gratitude. 🫶🏻🫶🏼🫶🏽🫶🏾🫶🏿

Sometimes the most minimal alterations result in some of the most beautiful transformations. We all know I’m a huge fan of big blonding sessions but the best results often come from just enhancing what you already have 😊🥰🫶🏼

This post is months overdue but I just wanted to make a heartfelt appreciation post. I didn’t even know I was a nominee until there was about a week left of voting for the winners. To say that I was shocked when I found out I was at the top for votes is an understatement.. If you’ve given me the pleasure of having you as a guest in my studio, you already know that I treat each appointment as more of a hangout/therapy session rather than a hair appointment. I view all of you more as friends rather than clients. The amount of tears cried in my chair because of heavy, personal conversations and the amount of belly aching, wheezing laughs had just reminds me how incredible, strong and uplifting each and every one of you are. Yes, I may have won this award thanks to my guests but I want this appreciation post to also reflect how proud I am of all of you!!!! 🤍🩶🤍

This individual keratin bond transformation is one of my favorites. It helps that she’s beautiful too 😍🔥🥵⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣
