When your hair dreams become a reality. 🤍

Today was such an honor meeting Lauren Jarvis-Gibson and her sister, and getting to work at Copper Falls for the first time. Their wedding truly looked like every single detail was so intimate, intentional, and completely them.

So grateful I got to be a small part of such a beautiful day.

POV: You picked a random 2027 wedding date and I told you it’s been booked since February 😂

Okay… maybe I’m being dramatic. But 2027 is booking up, and I’d rather you get your date secured now than wait until your dream hair team is already unavailable.

2027 brides, if you have your date, this is your sign to get your hair booked.

Inquire through my website to reserve your date.

The first clip in this video is from my first month of beauty school, and seeing that version of me next to the work I’m creating today is honestly crazy.

I had some seriously delusional confidence back then 😂 but I was also SO passionate about learning, practicing, and perfecting my craft. I wanted to get better with every head of hair I touched, and I think that mindset has stayed with me all these years.

Now, getting to create bridal hair for women on such an important day is something I’m incredibly grateful for. Looking back at where I started and seeing how much my work has evolved makes me so proud of the journey.

Still learning. Still growing. Still obsessed with the craft. 🤍

Grey coverage. This is the most high maintenance service in my opinion!

Here’s why:

A lot of people don’t realize that full grey coverage usually comes with a very harsh line of demarcation. Once your hair starts growing out, you can see exactly where the color ends and the grey begins, especially with darker colors. Even just a couple weeks of growth can feel super noticeable.

It also usually means committing to touch ups every 4 to 6 weeks to keep everything looking fresh and blended. Missing even one appointment can completely change the look and make the grow out feel much more obvious.

Another thing people don’t talk about enough is how stubborn greys around the face and hairline can be. Those areas tend to be the most resistant, which means they can fade faster or not grab color as evenly as the rest of the hair.

And for clients with finer or thinning hair, solid grey coverage can sometimes make the contrast between the new growth and colored hair appear even stronger, which can draw more attention to sparse areas as the roots grow in.

This is why softer grey blending and dimensional color has become such a popular option lately. It grows out softer, requires less maintenance, and creates a much more natural transition between appointments.

YOU DON’T HATE YOUR GRAY, YOU HATE THE GROW OUT!
