Whoa!!! Just swipe to see that before! Amazing transformation by April!
We’re hairstylists...so when we see good hair, we have to get our hands in it
We LOVE this visual created by @lisalovesbalayage! This color took her 8 hours to achieve and hundreds of dollars for the client. That’s why we try to educate you All as best we can on the process of going lighter with balayage. You can have that fierce light blond in one appointment but it’s going to mean you are in salon for a whole day and a lot of
We had a blast today with @morinebangle! So much in depth knowledge of color theory and Advanced Aveda formulating! Can’t wait to use this on our guests! #aveda #avedasalon #avedaartist #haircolor #haircolormagic #lupevoss

Tomorrow is one of my favorite days of the month in salon. Did you know each month we not only sit down as a salon to brainstorm and improve, but we also meet with each team member individually. We like to review numbers and goals from the previous month, discuss strengths and area to improve as well as set goals for the coming month. We love our staff and not only want them to succeed as stylists but in life as well. We work on budgeting, saving, attitude, technical skills as well as how to best read and serve our customers. What makes us different, is we only hire when all out other stylists are at least 80% booked or more. This gives them the opportunity to grow quickly, not feel any competitiveness (but rather teamwork), and have a consistent schedule. We love our guests but it’s fun to show you all how much we love our staff too! ❤️❤️
Those of you that know me know I have a passion for all things curly hair! I love researching new methods and techniques to get the best out of your curls. A lot of research lately has been talking about cutting out sulfates and silicon’s in your products. I’ve been conscious with the Aveda products I’ve been using, at reading labels. Loving the results! Instead of rinsing the conditioner out after my last wash, I left in in(only on midstrands and ends) and layered my go to products on it(swipe to see my fav). My curls are less frizzy and have more definition and shine

*not my words, but couldn’t have said it better myself* “I am a hair dresser” “Oh how cool! I would love to sit around and play with hair all day” “Thanks I really love it” “I wanted to do that too but I had to get a real job” I chose my profession, yes I said profession. I have an education; believe it or not I am not dumb. I have a license that probably looks similar to the one in your accountant’s office. “So in beauty school they just teach you how to braid hair and stuff?” “Yes, we did learn how to braid, along with all the bones and muscles in the body, along with chemistry, electricity, along with business, along with anatomy and physiology” “Oh wow, I don’t see why you need all that just to cut hair” I was taught how to properly help you achieve the look you are wanting while maintaining the integrity of your hair. But I have also dropped my head in defeat because I couldn’t get Sara’s hair to move from black to white in two hours. Then drove home in tears because I knew Sara was a walking un-happy billboard for my business. And although I did everything I knew to do Sara isn’t happy. In tears because I knew Sara would tell everyone who would listen about how “that stupid hairdresser” ruined her hair, while leaving out that she was dishonest about the history of her hair. I do get upset when I hear “I’m going to hair school; I already know everything so I just need to be certified. Since I’m so good I might as well get paid for it” If you are that good I am happy for you. But having the “I already know everything” mentality is going out the window the first time a screaming 2 year old sits in your chair. When he moves and screams louder with every cut you make. I have walked out the back door of the salon more than once wondering if his mother was going to put a review about me on Google, or Yelp or if I would get my own Facebook rant. Because her little boy looks terrible because of the “horrible experience” he had with “that stupid Hairdresser” I have cried with clients while touching up their roots for their parents, or worse their child’s funeral. I have curled little girls for the Daddy/Daughter dance listening to them tell me how they are going to look just like Cinderella! While I hope to get home in time to at least get a picture of my little boy before he leaves let alone have time to do his hair. I hear “I would love to go into work at 10”. Yes I open at 10 that doesn’t mean my day starts at 10! Just because we “close” at 6 doesn’t mean we leave at 6. I hear “I would come to you but your prices are too high”. Again I have an education that wasn’t free. I have booth rent, I have to pay for any and every product I use on your head. If my thinning shears pull your hair it’s because they need sharpening, that’s not free. And I have to use Ken to sharpen them because the last time Dave did it they got bent, and had to be replaced. Those aren’t free. I can’t turn away a client because they are sick I just have to pray I don’t catch it. Health insurance doesn’t come in our lack-of-benefits package. And it’s a good thing that in school we stopped playing with each others hair long enough to learn business because I am the only one looking out for my retirement. So the next time you may be in a hair chair think of the person helping you. The person who had the courage to bet on themselves and walk away from job security, guaranteed income, insurance, a 401k plan, and family dinner to stand behind you. I am a hairdresser I have the crooked fingers, scared knuckles, burnt fingertips, and sore feet to prove it! - Not “Just a hairdresser” “ *Repost for every Cosmetologist in the world*
