Day 5 of Me Posting My Work Till All The Cool PA Girls Find Me

I’ve always thought it was funny that people call green a “bold” hair color.

We spend our lives surrounded by it. It’s in forests, gardens, moss, wildflowers, and every little leaf that comes back each spring. Somehow, when it grows from the earth, it’s calming. But when it grows from someone’s head, it’s considered daring.

As someone who loves gardening and finds so much inspiration in nature, I think green deserves more love. There are so many shades, from soft sage to deep emerald to the brightest chartreuse, and every one tells a different story.

Maybe that’s why I love creating green hair so much. It feels a little wild, a little magical, and a reminder that some of the most beautiful things in nature were never meant to blend in.

If you’ve ever wanted green hair, consider this your sign. 🌱💚

Mail days are my favorite days. 📦✨

A huge thank you to OLAPLEX for sending over the NEW No. 7 Bonding Oil™ Shine Serum, the original No. 7 Bonding Oil, and a Lemon Lime poppi treat! I can’t wait to put this new launch to the test. 💛

The new No. 7 Shine Serum is a lightweight, bi-phase mist that combines a hydrating serum with nourishing oils to help refresh your hair between wash days. Just shake, spritz, and you’re left with instant shine, hydration, and up to 450°F heat protection without weighing your hair down or disrupting your style.

A few things I’m especially excited about:
✨ Weightless shine + hydration
✨ Helps reduce breakage for healthier-looking hair
✨ Safe for all hair types, color-treated hair, and extensions
✨ Vegan and free of sulfates, parabens, phthalates, and protein

I’m looking forward to trying it out behind the chair and seeing how it performs on different hair types. I’ll be sure to report back once I’ve had some hands-on time with it!

Thank you again, Olaplex, for thinking of me. I can’t wait to see this one in action! 💖

If you can’t find me while your color is processing... don’t panic. 😂

I promise I didn’t abandon you. I just firmly believe that a watched pot never boils. 🤣

Here’s the thing: while your color is processing, it’s oxidizing. During that time it can go through all kinds of weird phases. Purple. Orange. Murky. Too dark. Too bright. Sometimes it looks absolutely nothing like the final result.

Now, logically, I know that’s completely normal.

Emotionally? The second I glance over and catch your hair in one of those awkward in-between stages, my brain goes, “✨What if this is the final color?!✨”

So for everyone’s sanity (mostly mine 😅), I let the timer do its job and trust the science.

If I’m hiding in the back while you’re processing, just know I’m not avoiding you... I’m protecting my own peace. 😂

Have you ever caught your color halfway through processing and immediately thought, “Umm... is that supposed to look like that?” Let me know below! ⬇️

Sometimes inspiration comes from a breathtaking sunset. Sometimes it’s a painting, a flower, or a photograph...
..and sometimes it’s a tiny image tucked inside a plastic prize ball. 🌙✨

When Zoe asked Lauren and me what inspired this wig, the answer was simple: we pulled a capsule from my inspiration machine. Inside was a NASA photo of a moon (or distant planet), and that became the jumping-off point for everything we created.

The fun part? The inspiration machine is almost finished!

The idea is for clients who come in saying, “I don’t know what I want... surprise me!” Instead of scrolling Pinterest for an hour, you’ll get to pull a mystery capsule and let fate decide your inspiration. Think of it like a flash tattoo, but for your hair. Some capsules hold color palettes, others feature placement ideas, and a few contain fun surprises. Every one is meant to spark creativity and help create something uniquely yours.

Apparently, trusting the mystery machine paid off because this collaboration was nominated for a One Shot Hair Award! 🥹💛 If you’re not in the hair industry, it’s one of the highest honors a hairstylist can receive, similar to the Academy Awards or the Grammys in our profession.

Voting is officially open now through August 5th, and if you have a moment, it would mean so much to Lauren and me if you’d vote for our collaboration. You can vote up to five times per category (five is the maximum, not a requirement), and every ❤️ saves automatically. The link is in my bio!

Thank you for always encouraging us to dream big, get a little weird, and create outside the box. Sometimes the best ideas are the ones you’d never think to look for. 💛

There are moments in this industry that still don’t feel real, and this is one of them.
Later today at 11:59 AM CT (12:59 PM EST), voting officially opens for the One Shot Hair Awards, and seeing our work among this year’s nominees is something I’ll never take for granted.

Creating alongside LAUREN HERZOG//ALLENTOWN PA//BALAYAGE ARTIST//VIBE CURATOR has been one of the greatest gifts this industry has given me. Being nominated together for our collaboration means more than I can put into words. It represents years of friendship, creativity, trust, and dreaming up ideas that somehow turned into something bigger than us.

I’m also so incredibly proud that Lauren and Kelly were nominated for the color they created on me. Watching people I love and admire receive recognition for their artistry is just as exciting as receiving it myself.

If you have a few minutes today, we’d be so grateful if you’d consider voting for us in the Collaboration category. 💖

A few quick things to know:
✨ You can vote up to 5 times per category (five is the maximum, not a requirement).
✨ If you’d like to send 2 of those votes our way, it would truly mean the world to us.
✨ Your vote is saved the moment you tap the 💖. There’s no submit button, so every heart counts immediately.

✨ You can vote in just our category, or explore and vote in as many categories as you’d like.

I’ll add the voting link to my bio as soon as voting opens.

If you’re searching for specific artists, simply search our Instagram handles (Zhana Zdepski - Lehigh Valley Hairstylist , LAUREN HERZOG//ALLENTOWN PA//BALAYAGE ARTIST//VIBE CURATOR , or Kelly Martin - Bethlehem, PA Hair- Pulp Riot ), and you’ll see all of our nominations in one place.

Whether you’ve supported me by liking a post, sharing my work, trusting me with your hair, or simply cheering me on from afar, thank you. Every opportunity I’ve had has been because people like you believed in what I create. I don’t take that for granted for a single second.

Thank you for being part of this journey. 💖
