If, at this time last year, you would have asked me to place a bet on what I’d be doing right now I would have 100% bet against anything having to do with the salon.
In January of 2022, I increased my prices and cut my clientele in half, so I could have a chance to “explore other opportunities”. I dove into finance, learned about the potential of web 3, started writing my memoir, took a crack at real estate, rolled the dice with dropshipping online and even entertained becoming a spiritual guide. I loved every minute of it. Especially the part where I rediscovered my passion for all things related to hair.
So here I am. My condensed schedule behind the chair will stay the same. But I’ll be spending more time online doing what I can to help you love all things related to YOUR hair by sharing what I’ve learned from this industry over the past 27 years. You can thank my explorations from last year for helping me finally feel comfortable sharing my knowledge with you.
I’ve been reserved in discussing what I’ve accomplished in my career, because I never wanted to come across as being too boastful, or arrogant. The truth is, though, I know and have done a lot… and I’m damn good at what I do. From fucking hair up at The Haircuttery in the Altamonte Mall, to doing hair for a Harper’s Bazaar cover shoot on the top of the Met Life building in midtown Manhattan…and tons of crazy things in between, I’m ready to write about it all. I’ll discuss multi-step routines for the "high maintenance" lovers and for those of you who prefer to be lower effort, I’ll share tips and tricks to help you get the most out of your haircare routines. And I’m really excited to discuss light maintenance for middle-aged hair, because it turns out I like to talk about myself ;)
You’ll find much more than beauty products discussed here, too. Since our hair is a reflection of our inner well-being, I’ll share lifestyle tips and other health-focused information focused on helping you feel your best, so you can look your best.
Lastly, we are so fortunate to learn so much from our clients, so from time-to-time we’ll share exciting news from our community, too.
Check back next week for my first dive into our favorite product line and why we chose them. Spoiler alert, they work wonders AND take care of our planet.
Toodles for now <3
