Katelyn Rae Hair

Today I emptied my station and walked out of the salon for the last time as a stylist. That chair has been a special place for me for years. I couldn’t begin to count how many people I have cared for in that chair. It’s been where I have created beautiful looks and where many have laughed and cried. I’m very thankful to have had such a great space to work in. Thank you and all the girls I worked with that were only extremely professional and inspiring. Thanks to my wonderful guests for giving me an amazing career. Words cannot express my love for you. Thank you to my husband who shared caring for our son which allowed me to work without having to hire childcare. He did many late nights and very long Saturdays with our little crazy boy at home. Anyone who’s a partner of a hairstylist knows when we say we’re getting out at 8 pm sometimes that means 10 pm. He’s been very patient with the quirks of being a hairstylist husband. I’ll miss the creative outlet and the social opportunities Ive had while caring for my guests but I’m excited to spend time with my family and welcome our little girl into the world very soon.

As I get closer to the delivery of my second child many have been asking about the timing of my maternity leave. It’s with a lot of consideration, a heavy heart and much excitement that I’ve decided to put the shears and brushes down to focus on the care of my family.

This career has been more amazing than I could have ever imagined. I received the most incredible education. I’ve worked with many talented and wonderful stylists. I’ve been blessed with clients that are irreplaceable in my heart. Being a hairstylist has been the most rewarding career I could have dreamt for myself both creatively and emotionally. I love creating looks for my guests that fit them and their hair perfectly. I have Also loved walking through life with my guests (for some over a decade). I’ve seen you grow and evolve through your lives. I’ve laughed with you and held you while you cried. I’ve help cancer survivors grow back their hair and I’ve done your hair for your weddings. For a few I’ve said goodbye on this side of life and wept over the loss of you or for those that have lost. You all have also walked with me through life. All the ups and downs and twists and turns. There’s been so many. I’m so blessed. I’ll miss you all individually so much. From the bottom of my heart thank you.

As for my leave, my last day will be April 1st. Please reserve your appointment as soon as you can. I want to do my best to get everyone in at least one more time. If you struggle to find a time that will work for you please get a hold of me. I will be releasing all color formulas for your future stylist to help with your transition.

Love you all so much!!! I can’t thank you enough. ❤️❤️❤️

How gorgeous is Andrea!?! We went for a rich fall softly dimensional brown and it looks so beautiful and natural on her.

Last weekend I had the pleasure of doing the hair for my husband’s cousin’s wedding who has become a good friend. You should have Seen the wedding venue and the bridal cabin!! One of the prettiest places I’ve done hair. They were both on islands in a gorgeous lake. Sometimes I get to do what I love, for people I love in places that are breathtaking. What a blessing!

Another client selfie for you! Coming in 🔥HOT🔥 for the first day of fall!

How gorgeous is this girl?!? It’s been a joy to watch her grow up into a lovely young woman and learn to love her curls And embrace volume.

Root smudge and lowlights today to make a high maintenance blonde low maintenance and more ready for fall. The entire color was done with conditioning Demi permanent color. It’s healthier, shinier and more cost effective.

This gorgeous girl isn’t a natural red head (you wouldn’t know) But her curls are and they’re super healthy and beautiful.

Gotta love a pretty butter blonde. 😍

How gorgeous is this emerald queen?!? She gave us both sexy Disney villain vibes and we love it!

This girl is on fire! 🔥 🔥 🔥

Ok… I never encourage a hat after an appointment but how cute is this blunt platinum Bob under a baseball cap? The lovely Kayla hadn’t had her blonde touched up since before covid… This meant about 6 in of roots. It was quite the overhaul but it was totally worth it 😍

Gorgeous honey balayage 😍

Beautiful bride came in to practice for her special day. I absolutely love Vintage glam waves. 😍

I’ve had a few people reach out for an update on my covid diagnosis. I am coming back to work tomorrow. I tested positive a week ago tomorrow but I had symptoms days before that. I have completed my 5 day quarantine which is what is required by Wayne county. I’ll be 2 days pasts that tomorrow. I’m thankful for vaccinations and how it helped me and my family handle covid quite well. I know this virus has been terrible for others. If you do feel uncomfortable, that’s ok, You’re welcome to rescheduled. I’m very glad to be done with covid and I’m excited to get back to work.

Today 10 years ago I became a professional hairstylist! It’s been an amazing decade.

Thank you ! For those of you that don’t know she offered me an apprenticeship and got me on my feet. She’s an amazing salon owner in Lansing and an even better friend. She’s hired me back every time I’m in the area, even when a position wasn’t open. Your the most pure and constant supporter of everyone you meet!

Also thank you for getting my butt back to Detroit after life circumstances had me convinced my career was over. I absolutely wouldn’t have the life I have now, professionally and personal, without you. You’re a wonderful friend. Your salon has become a comfortable, yet oh so cool environment for my guest. You make me laugh constantly. I’m very blessed by the space you’ve made for us and the trust you’ve allowed me to have in you as a friend.

Lastly, thank you to anyone who’s trusted me with their hair and their time throughout the years. I quite literally wouldn’t have a career (and a vibrant one at that) without you all. I’m so beyond blessed by you all. I love you and I can’t wait to continue to serve you.

Next Thursday, February 17th, I’m working 11am till 5pm!! Please feel free till fill up my schedule with your lovely faces! It’s going to be beautiful to see ya during the day. Free conditioning treatments to those that book that day.

In light of the current health climate Anthem Hair and Health is going back to requiring masks for all. This is for the health of our staff, our guests and their families. Thank you for understanding and we look forward to seeing you!

How stinking cute are Norma’s bangs?!?

Inspiration on the left…. Lavender, silver, periwinkle swirl. Amanda started with red box color two appointments ago and committed to the process. We’re both beyond happy.😍

This smile is the I haven’t had a good haircut in years and I’m feeling great smile. This kind of smile is my favorite compliment after a haircut.

Isn’t Nina gorgeous 😱😍

Becky needed a big change. I had so much hair envy when we finished. Who doesn’t love a good s**g. 😍
