I am just sad I found her only a year and a half ago.
She is amazing, she truly understands hair and it shows.
things I should and shouldn’t be doing and I was like… wow no one has ever taken this time to tell me all this in my 35++ years of getting my hair cut.
And she wasn’t just selling me products she was telling me amazing secrets!
Now I have recommended several friends and clients with troubled hair.
They feel the same way I do.
They love her and are so mad that they settled with an okay hair dresser for so long.
Hair is SUCH an important part of your style, a bad haircut or color is not easy to hide!
She said yes, lucky you!
She is going to share some of her amazing secrets with you,

Advice: Never, ever use a brush on wet hair, EVER. Using a brush on wet hair creates more tangles that can become a vicious cycle and a hard habit to break. Get it, break? That is what happens to the hair if a brush is used, whenever the hair is wet, it breaks.
Why: When you put tension on wet hair, such as during wet brushing; the hair is fragile and vulnerable to damage because the hairs’ tensile strength and elasticity are over stretched to its breaking point. Wet hair can be stretched 40-50% of its length. Dry hair is capable of being stretched about one-fifth its length.
Technique: After shampooing, rinse well, wring out as much water as you can, apply conditioner and let set (3-5 minutes for daily conditioner, 5-7 for deep conditioner). Place hair directly under the shower heads’ stream of running water, use a wide tooth comb, start combing at the very ends, gradually working toward the mid-shaft and eventually towards scalp area, while simultaneously rinsing the conditioner out. The comb should glide through the hair without catching.
Tool box: Wide tooth comb, with only a single row of teeth. Buy a good quality handmade Resin comb with no seams, no nicks in the teeth no flimsy backbone. The entire comb should be smooth. Cost just under $25. – don’t gasp, your hair will love you for it.
• Mason Pearson Rake Comb is an excellent snag – wink.
• Lightweight leave in conditioner applied after every shampoo, like Unite 7 seconds.
• Be patient, healthy hair is always worth it.
