Would you ever wear pink hair? It’s one of my favourite vivids as it fades out the most favourably 🩷🫧✨

Well, its official. I enrolled in masters technique and will be intensively learning, practicing and leaning deeper into my passion of starting at the end of the summer ✨
Wish me luck!
I’m beyond excited to further my skills as your dedicated IBE stylist 🤍

Swipe to see exactly why we say not all extension installs are built the same.
The tension and scalp issues are signs of an overall *bad* install. I’m glad to have been able to help give this lovely client a more comfortable extensions install with higher quality hair.
Today we removed the previous hair and beads, did a clarifying shampoo, detox scalp treatment to remove the buildup caused by the thick wefts and poor sectioning , hydrating mask, and installed 2 rows of brand new custom coloured hair using the method.
Do your research with your extension artist.
If you have something that looks like those before photos and you’re looking to experience a life changing install - slide into my DMs ✨ I want to help you!

No one needs to know 🤐

Would you rather:

Be blonde by any means necessary,

Have healthy hair that suits your skin tone and a more customized overall look?

Writing long or educational captions sometimes just isn’t it for me (mostly because I love doing the hair and taking the pics😉)

Good morning and happy Friday☀️ let’s get it!

The power of a toner and fresh haircut ✨

Summer is booking rather quickly, so I definitely suggest booking your next appointment online to avoid disappointment of not getting your hair freshened up around your special events!
I always offer pre booking before you leave your appointment for this reason. I can’t wait to see you and hear about how your summer is going so far 🥰

She’s summer ready 🤍
What’s your favourite shade of blonde on yourself? A key deciding factor between cool, warm, or neutral bright, is what type of jewelry you tend to lean towards and what looks best on your skin. Gold = warm. Silver = cool. Both? Bright neutral ✨

Invisible Bead Extensions® was specifically created to solve 3 major problems encountered with the different types of hand-tied methods available.

PREVENTS DAMAGE
to the client’s hair and scalp from tension, over-direction and haphazard installs.

ELIMINATES DISCOMFORT
due to the contact of beads on the scalp and the common “clamp and crank” beading approach.

STYLING VERSATILITY
which means no more exposed beads, bonds, or braids when wearing hair up.

I’ve been practicing and performing the IBE method for 2.5 years and I’ve easily installed more than 450 rows in that time! I can confidently say that I’m the best person to install your extensions for you, I wear them myself and I know exactly what’s comfortable and what’s not.

Are you ready to upgrade your hairstyle?

Moody 🖤
Posting this beauty to the feed since you loved her on my stories yesterday!
One of this years trends that I’ve noticed, outside of mega blondes and hair extensions, has been solid, rich, warm full colour requests.
Obsessed is an understatement.

Book your appointment and allow me to bring your hair dreams to life!
See you soon beautiful ✨🖤

This babe is summer ready with a fresh full highlight ✨

Is your hair as summer ready as you are? With this beautiful weather upon us, the perfect finish to every summer outfit is a beautiful hairstyle that will last you through the summer months!
With so many events, let’s get your hair slayed and ready ☀️
A balayage is a lower maintenance look that will last you 3-6 months if you’d like to stretch out your appointments! If you don’t mind 8 week touch ups I’d recommend a face framing service in between larger appointments to keep you looking fresh at all times.

I have online booking available 24/7 or you can DM me and I will happily help you out!
Unsure what to book in for your hair goals? I offer complimentary in depth consultations, where we will meet and chat about your hair and lifestyle, and come up with a customized plan for your unique goal!

When you book an appointment with me, you can expect a unique experience in our hair studio. Here’s what sets us apart:

🧡Personalized Attention: I focus solely on one client at a time, ensuring you receive my undivided attention. No double booking here.

🧡Efficient Service: I understand your time is valuable. While major color or extension transformations may take longer, I work fast and efficiently to minimize your salon time. You can enjoy your “me time” while balancing other personal care appointments.

🧡Work-Friendly Environment: Our salon offers high-speed wifi, allowing you to connect your laptop and work from the comfort of our studio. With only two chairs, you’ll experience a quieter atmosphere compared to larger salons.

🧡VIP Treatment: On certain days when my business partner is off, you have the option to be the only client in the salon, enjoying an extra special VIP experience. As a 2 chair salon you will never be as overwhelmed as you’ve been at larger salons!

🧡Education and Product Recommendations: I’m here to educate you on managing your new hair and recommend the best products for your specific needs. If you’d like to purchase products during your appointment, we have retail options available. In case we’re temporarily out of stock, I’ll provide enough to last you a few hair washes until we restock.

🧡Snacks and Drinks: As a fellow “hangry” person, I keep snacks and drinks readily available for you to enjoy during your visit. Feel free to help yourself to the jar at my station.

🧡Customized Hair Maintenance Plan: Together, we’ll collaborate on a hair maintenance plan that fits your lifestyle and schedule. Whether you prefer salon visits every few weeks, months, or annually, I have the perfect plan for you.

🧡Transparent Pricing: You’ll find all my pricing listed on our online booking page. Additionally, I’ll inform you in advance of any price adjustments, such as for gray coverage or cuts.

At our hair studio, we strive to provide a unique and exceptional experience tailored to your needs.
