Back to school with new bangs & a fresh haircut!!

She was so cute when she said her bangs were just Taylor Swifts!!

Also, I didn't color her hair, just another example of how lighting, styling, & the colors you're wearing will affect the way your hair color looks!

βœ¨πŸ’‡β€β™€οΈ Lighting Matters! πŸ’‡β€β™‚οΈβœ¨

Hey, beautiful souls! πŸ’– Did you know that the lighting you’re in can dramatically affect how your hair color looks? 🌟

These two photos were literally taken less than 2 minutes apart, one inside at my chair & the other outside in semi-shaded sunlight.

🌞 **Natural Light:** This is the most flattering and true-to-color light. Your gorgeous shades and highlights will shine their brightest here!

πŸ’‘ **Indoor Lighting:** Warm or cool artificial lights can make your hair color appear different. Warm lights might give your hair a richer, golden tone, while cool lights can bring out ashy or cooler undertones.

πŸ“Έ **Flash Photography:** This can sometimes wash out colors or make them look more intense. Perfect for those bold color moments!

Next time you’re checking out your new look, try to see it in different lights. It's all part of the magic! ✨

Got any questions about how lighting affects your hair? Drop them below or ask me during your next appointment. Let’s keep those locks looking fabulous, no matter the light! πŸ’«

🌟 Happy Birthday to this kid 🌟

I hope you are having the most magical day, full of laughter, cake, and all the things that make you smile. I wanted to write you this letter to tell you a few things about the wonderful journey ahead.

First, always remember to keep your heart open to love and kindness. The world is a big, beautiful place, and you have so much to share with it. Your creativity and caring nature will touch many lives, and you'll find so much joy in helping others.

You're going to discover a love for hairdressing, which is a special way to make people feel beautiful and confident. Your talent will bring you close to many wonderful people, and you'll learn so much from each of them. Keep asking questions, keep learning, and never stop sharing your knowledge.

You also have a big love for cats, dogs (well all animals really, and many will,"follow" you home before your grownπŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ) and gardening. These will become your little pieces of paradise, bringing you peace and happiness. Whether it's playing with your furry friends or watching your garden grow, these moments will remind you of the simple joys in life.

Family and friends will always be your greatest treasures. Spend as much time as you can with them, creating memories and sharing love. They will be your support and your joy through all the ups and downs.

So, enjoy every moment, little one. Keep smiling, keep dreaming, and keep being the wonderful you. Your journey is just beginning, and it's going to be amazing.✨

I'm still so much this little kid, messy hair, funky clothes that may not be cool to most, but I still love them. I'm glad I haven't changed too much!

It's been an amazing journey so far, i can't wait to see what's in-store for the future!

Nourish Your Locks; Healthy Hair Tips

As your hairstylist, I’m passionate about helping you achieve gorgeous, vibrant hair. Beyond styling and treatments, proper nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy locks.

Here are some tips to enhance your hair’s natural beauty:

1. Hydrate: Just like your skin, your hair needs hydration. Drink plenty of water to keep your strands moisturized from within.

2. Balanced Diet: Incorporate nutrient-rich foods into your meals. Vitamins A, C, E, and biotin promote hair health. Include leafy greens, eggs, nuts, and whole grains.

3. Protein Power: Hair is primarily composed of protein (keratin). Ensure you’re getting enough protein through sources like lean meats, fish, and legumes.

4. Omega-3 Fatty Acids: These healthy fats support scalp health and prevent dryness. Find them in salmon, walnuts, and flaxseeds.

5. Iron and Zinc: Iron deficiency can lead to hair loss. Consume iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils, and red meat. Zinc aids in hair growth and repair.

6. Avoid Crash Diets: Rapid weight loss can impact hair quality. Opt for gradual, sustainable changes.

Remember, beautiful hair starts from within. If you have any questions or need personalized advice, feel free to reach out any time or during your next salon visit!


Wishing you luscious locks,
Diane K

✨ Why Toner is Your New Best Friend! ✨

Hey beauties! πŸ’‡β€β™€οΈπŸ’•

Did you know that sometimes, achieving that fresh, new look doesn’t require a full dye job? That’s right! A toner might be all you need to transform your hair and bring out its best. Here’s why:

1. **Neutralize Unwanted Tones:** Whether it’s brassiness in blondes or unwanted warmth in brunettes, a toner can work wonders in neutralizing those tones and giving you a more polished look.

2. **Refresh Faded Color:** If your hair color is starting to fade but the base is still good, a toner can revive and refresh your color, making it vibrant and shiny again without the commitment of a full color treatment.

3. **Add Dimension and Shine:** Toners can add depth and dimension to your hair, enhancing its natural hues and giving it that gorgeous, multi-dimensional shine we all crave.

4. **Less Damage:** Since toners are less harsh than full dyes, they cause less damage to your hair, keeping it healthier and more resilient.

5. **Quick and Cost-Effective:** A toner session is usually quicker and more affordable than a full color service, making it a perfect option for those looking for a quick refresh.

Next time you're feeling like a change, remember, sometimes less is more! Book your toner appointment today and let’s make your hair dreams come true. 🌟

πŸ—£CONFESSION TIME!

🚫 I didn't do ANY color for the first 6 YEARS of my career!! I'm not kidding. 🚫

I was fu***ng terrified of it. 😱

My BS (beauty school) teachers mixed everything for me. They never explained anything or why they were mixing those products. I understood bleaching and toning- BARELY- and that was all I knew how to do, and I wasn't very good at it either. It wasn't until I started at a salon that I was required to learn color & I attended a Goldwell 101 class. From that moment on, it was like a light bulb πŸ’‘ went on, and I understood very basic color theory.🀯

After attending that class, I was determined to unlock all the secrets, I immersed myself in a journey of education, and voilΓ β€”the breakthrough moments arrived! πŸ“šπŸ’‘ Now, armed with a profound understanding, I'm geared up to elevate your color experience to dazzling heights.

πŸ” Delving into the enchanting world of undertones and mastering the symphony of complementary shades, it's a whole new realm of artistic expression. Imagine your hair as a canvas, and together, we'll paint a masterpiece that speaks volumes about your unique style and personality. πŸ’β€β™€οΈβœ¨

Excitement courses through me as I weave this newfound wisdom into each strand, creating hues that resonate with your essence.

Ready for a vibrant transformation? Let's embark on this enchanting, colorful journey together! πŸŒˆπŸ’‡β€β™€οΈ
