Part 2! Sorry to keep you waiting so long! 😅

Above the shoulders or below the shoulders is always the biggest debate when chopping the hair off 💇‍♀️

tune in to this consult as we narrow down the look that Megan is going for for her new fall look!

Stay tuned for part two where we show the reveal! 👏👏

I don’t need to be the biggest name in the industry. I just want to be the name you remember. 💕🙌🏻

The stylist who listened.
Who noticed the little things.
Who cared about the health of your hair AND your scalp.
Who made you feel comfortable in the chair.
And who sent you back into the world feeling a little more like yourself.

After 17 years behind the chair, I’ve learned that this industry isn’t really about hair. (Okay maybe a little 😉)

It’s about trust. Connection. Confidence. And creating an experience people want to come back to. 🤍

Noticing more hair in your brush lately? 👀 Don’t panic.

First things first: hair shedding does NOT automatically mean you’re losing all your hair. 🤍

Our hair naturally moves through different phases of growth, rest, and shedding.. and sometimes more hairs than usual enter the shedding phase at the same time. In many cases, increased shedding is temporary.

If you’ve noticed a sudden increase, think back over the last 2–4 months. Your hair can respond later to changes happening in your body.

Here’s your checklist 🔍

✓ Major stress or prolonged periods of stress
✓ Illness, fever, COVID, or surgery
✓ Rapid weight loss or significant diet changes
✓ Starting or stopping certain medications
✓ Hormonal changes, pregnancy or postpartum
✓ Low iron or other nutritional deficiencies
✓ Not eating enough protein/calories
✓ Changes in thyroid function
✓ Poor sleep or prolonged physical/emotional stress
✓ New products + scalp irritation, itching, or inflammation
✓ Tight hairstyles, extensions, or excessive tension
✓ Seasonal changes in shedding

And sometimes… there isn’t one obvious answer.

My job as a scalp specialist isn’t to diagnose the medical reason behind your shedding. It’s to look at what’s happening on your scalp, help create a healthy environment for your hair, educate you on what I’m seeing, and refer you to a dermatologist or healthcare provider when something needs further investigation.

Your scalp is where healthy hair begins. 🌱

If you’re shedding more than usual and have no idea where to start, come see me at The Root Room. We’ll take a closer look. 💜

Your scalp is skin! and it deserves more than dry shampoo 😉

A few things that may surprise you:

🤍Flaking doesn’t always mean your scalp is dry or you have dandruff. It can also be caused by excess oil, buildup, irritation, or product residue.

🤍Dry shampoo absorbs oil, but it doesn’t actually cleanse your scalp. You’re just putting a problem on top of a problem.

🤍Healthy-looking hair begins with the environment it grows from. While scalp care can’t fix every cause of hair loss, keeping your scalp clean, comfortable, and balanced gives your hair the best possible foundation.

🤍Not sure what your scalp actually needs? A professional scalp analysis can help us take a closer look and create a routine specifically for you!

Save this for your next wash day- and follow The Root Room for honest scalp and hair education.

All in a days work👩‍💻

Don’t feel bad- most people are simply not taught correctly!

Mistake # 1: You’re not washing your scalp twice.
Your scalp is skin — it needs a double cleans!

Mistake # 2: You’re putting conditioner or masks on soaking-wet hair. Squeeze the water out first or the product can’t absorb.

Mistake # 3: not oiling your scalp before you wash!
Think of this as your vitamins for your hair. You need to nourish your scalp for healthy hair to grow, balance the oil production, remove build up and dead skin cells, and promote hair growth.

DM me “scalp” and I’ll show you the exact routine I Use!

Oh boy! 😍
