BLONDES
Blonding is my specialty: babylights, foils, platinum card, balayage, foilayage. Let’s talk lifestyle: If you crave a lived-in blonde, or a higher-maintenance blonde, I am here to guide you to your hair goal. I also offer a full range of color services, but blondes really pull on my heart strings.
STYLING
The style is the icing on the cake. If there is no icing, the cake isn’t finished. I love styling, it’s actually one of my favorite parts. This is when your color, haircut and makeup all come together. After the finishing touches are complete, you’re going to be ready to rock your most confident self.
HAIRCUTS
Don't let split ends control your length goals, trims are essential! Whether you are looking for a totally new look, or are in for a maintenance visit, I’m all about it! This is the quickest way to feel fresh and amp up your natural beauty. Plus, all of my haircuts include styling.
EXTENSIONS
Extensions are for anyone who wants to add length, thickness or just add a little more fun! I offer two different brands: Bellami Hair Extensions and HaloCouture. Both are made of 100% human hair and give all of those luscious mermaid vibes. Book a consultation to find out more.
