Beauty n Ink By Traci

From a little girl so shy and quiet, to a full grownup in college, a senior about to graduate!🥹💕

Being part of my clients’ lives through the years is such a blessing. So proud of you, beautiful—bright future, fabulous hair, and God guiding your steps! 🎓✨

OKAYYYYY… can we talk about this transformation?!🥰🤌

The blonde is the BEFORE and this rich, dimensional brunette with all those beautiful layers and natural curls is the AFTER.
And babiiiiiiiii… she is GLOWING!
Her skin tone, her eyes, those curls—everything came alive with this color!🔥

She brought me 3️⃣ inspiration pictures, each with something different she loved. Sooooo, I combined all three ideas, created a custom color just for her, and understood the assignment! Lolllll 😂👏

For my stylist friends, I mixed 5.45 + 5N in equal portions with 20 volume and processed for 30 minutes—and the richness and shine are absolutely EVERYTHING🤎

What makes this transformation even more special is the beautiful woman underneath the hair. We met about a year ago as neighbor/stylist/client, but somewhere along the way she became my friend. 🥹 She gives me free rein over her hair, trusts my vision, and lets me create—and I’m so thankful she does because LOOK what we created together!

She was completely in love with it, and honestly, so was I🥰

Yes, my hands created this color—but the talent, creativity, and ability behind those hands came from God. So every compliment and every bit of glory goes right back to Him🙌

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others…”
—1 Peter 4:10

Trust the process, trust your stylist…and when God gives you a gift, USE IT! 💛✂️
