I love to hear Mary laugh.❤️ Over the many years we have shared our stories of family and fun, work and our hobbies. Mary and her husband usually have a family thanksgiving dinner. I love to hear about all the different dishes they are serving. Everything is homemade even the w**e! It’s a big Italian dinner made with love ❤️ I am so grateful I have heard all her stories and enjoyed them. Thank you Mary, you are a gift!
wait...I feel like summer literally just started 🙊
but I’m not mad about it because I LOVE fall!
which only means ONE thing 👉 warmer tones, richer colors, fresh cuts, and cozy vibes!
And don’t even get me started on the pumpkin spice lattes I’ll be drinking to make sure I’m ready for you ☕️
If you’ve been thinking about just refreshing your current color or going for a completely different look this season, let’s do it.
Whatever you’re thinking, we’ll figure it out together!

Anne Wiberg loved the color pink. She wore pink lipstick 💄 and had a lot of pink in her wardrobe. She moved to DesPlaines from Minnesota and someone recommended me to her and that how it started. Her husband Mark started coming to the salon and also her son John. Sometimes her son Ben would come in when he was visiting the family. I miss her. Anne passed away in 2023. We always would have the best conversations because of her wonderful personality. We even went to lunch occasionally. This picture says so much about Anne! Thank you for being my friend❤️

Valerie Domain better known by her family as Tootsie. She is my friend Rosina’s sister. When she was in last we were trying to figure out just how many years she has been coming in. It was before our salon had a computer so you know it has been a stretch of time! I have been lucky enough to go through many style changes with Val from short to long. It’s not just about the hairstyle though, along the way a friendship happens. It’s a professional friendship. For the most part I only see her at the salon and after 35 years I think we know one another pretty well. Val is a realtor, so I called my friend when it was time to sell my mother’s condo. She made the process of selling go smoothly and it was just before the COVID shutdown. It happened with Vals’s help and experience. Thank you Val, you do so many good things for many people!❤️
This is your sign to stop playing it safe with your hair 🫶
My client came in wanting a change, but she was a little too nervous about going too far from what she was used to, so I knew I needed to educate her on what the process would look like!
She knew exactly what she wanted to accomplish, but wasn’t sure it would actually look good on her.
We talked through what she liked, what she didn’t, and what would actually work for her hair.
We went for a teasylight technique and then a toner for some soft caramel highlights and she wanted the front of her hair to sweep back from her face. April’s h as it is very wavy and I #
was carful on my foil pattern especially around face 🤎
And now she looks like her BEST version ever 😍
Sometimes you don’t need to completely change yourself…
You just need someone (ME) to help you figure out what change feels right for you!
Because yes, trying something new with your hair can be intimidating…but SO worth it when it’s done right.
If you’ve had a hair transformation sitting in your camera roll forever...
Go for it!
The worst that can happen is that you LOVE it 🤎

My friend Joe Esposito has been coming in to see me for over 35 years! He is Italian and so am I, so we talk… about our family, mostly our mothers and our dogs. Joe loves sweets. He really is a connoisseur of birthday cakes, and donuts and sweet rolls. On my 50th birthday he brought in this enormous chocolate and banana filled layer cake! We served it to our guests that day too! I believe Joe is now 100 years young. He still loves his sweets🎂🍩🍰
This photo is from 2014 and I think I need an updated one! Love to you always Joe!
Instead of making Linda’s face frame light, I decided to go darker. My inspiration was Jayne Edward’s hair. I liked this little tweak a lot!

I known Kim Fiester for 45 years! She was a new mom and I was just starting my career. Kim had long hair back then and would always come in for trims. Now I see her much more often. She is retired now and loves to travel. Kim also owns a horse and rides several times a week. When I bought Headquarters Kim and her husband Jim were one of the first of my clients to send flowers congratulating me. The memories are so many! Thank you for you friendship Kim, you are not replaceable!❤️
what actually goes into creating this color 🤎
she came in with highlights grown out for six months and told me her goal was a brighter blonder look so we created a personalized plan to get her hair exactly where she wanted it.

if you have a dark brown hair you need to try this color next time!
it looks even better in person (hard to believe i know!) 😍
would you try this color? Because I definitely would!
