Hair By Shelsea

It took a cancer diagnosis for her to finally take care of herself.

She hadn’t had her hair done since 2018.
Not because she didn’t care… but because she was busy taking care of everyone else.

I see this so often.🥹
Moms who keep putting themselves last.
Who wait until there’s a ‘reason’ to finally do something for themselves.

But here’s the truth—
Taking care of yourself shouldn’t come after everything else.
It’s part of how you show up for everything else.

This appointment wasn’t just about hair.
It was about feeling like herself again.

You don’t need a life-altering moment to start taking care of yourself.

Send this to a Mom who needs to be reminded to add themselves to the top of their to-do list!

It was time…

My daughter Amelia struggles with hair growth and hair health. As a college athlete and a natural blonde it takes a beating. Typically blonde hair has less strength than darker hair bc melanin = keratin and keratin = strength. That’s not always the case but it is here. It was time to cut some length off to where here hair had a fighting chance to grow.

But in the meantime I thinks she’s rocking this new length!

A lot of dimension added back in.

Full color twice a year-ish.

Simple but intentional

Here’s a thought… how about we work with the grey instead of against it?

Instead of thinking of it as the end of your youth, think of it as a crown of glory. 👑

You can still look beautiful, vibrant and youthful and still have a few greys showing. Yes I’m a hair colorist and still saying that!

2016 was a very pivotal year for me! This is the year that I moved from my doing a couple clients a week in my home to a real salon!

I had also been working for my families beauty school for a bit and I was literally making one clerical mistake after another and realized I was not working in my strengths whatsoever! 🙈

It became very clear to me that my passion was still out there on the salon floor. YouTube and Instagram became a huge source of inspiration!

The girls were 9 and 6 and with both of them in school full time, I was SO excited to start my new business. And learned everything there was to learn at the time! I was OBSESSED quite frankly and couldn’t get enough of all things hair and hair color. My family will tell you I’m still pretty obsessed with watching hair videos all day and traveling to learn from whoever is inspiring me at the time! As long as I’m still behind the chair, that will not change!

And 10 years later the rest is history! So grateful how far I’ve come since that time. 🙏🏻

What changed for you in 2016?
