Hair by Kim

Main Character Energy 👻🔥

Blonde and red ghost roots, soft-blended into bold color, finished with 24” Bellami extensions in dark brown for all that length and movement. Not my typical lived-in world, but I loved every second of this one.

Third session results.

With dark, thick hair, achieving a seamless lived-in balayage is often a process—not a one-appointment transformation. We took our time over multiple sessions to lift gradually while maintaining the integrity of her hair.

For this session, we created a soft honey brown balayage with subtle dimension and a blended root for a natural, sun-kissed finish. The goal was beautiful color that not only looks great today, but continues to grow out softly and effortlessly for months to come.

Lived-in color is all about longevity, low maintenance, and customized results.

Layered cuts that move with you ✨

This look is all about intentional styling — starting with root spray for lift and direction, then blow-drying inward to encourage that soft bend and natural curl under. I only set the top section with rollers to build height and shape right where it counts, then let it fully cool so the volume holds.

Finished with texture spray to add grip, separation, and that effortless, lived-in movement that makes every layer pop.

Short, layered, and built for movement ✂️

This cut focuses on creating shape and lightweight volume without losing softness. Short layered haircuts are great for adding natural lift and making styling feel effortless while still looking polished.

To maintain the body and structure of this look, I recommend a trim every 3 months. This helps keep the layers from growing out, losing their shape, or getting too heavy over time.
