Swoon 🌬️

Dimensional blonding on a natural level 7/8… 🤌🏻

Todays the first day in a while that I thought to myself “I really like being pregnant” 🥹 ask me tomorrow and it might be different 😅 but I love my bump right now and I feel the need to document some recents on my timeline 😛 My body pain level is low currently (it fluctuates daily/weekly lol) and I just all around feel good. They say second trimester is a breeze but its when all the pain started for me and I’m so curious what 3rd trimester will bring 😅 but for today… I feel pretty great and excited for my little dude 🩵 28 weeks +4 days today 🤯

Working on my feet 5 days a week has been challenging and it’s definitely getting a little harder not gonna lie. But I also think it’s better than being sedentary and keeps me busy and moving around sooooo maybe it’s a perk! Add to that I’ve been trying to continue strength training 2-3 times per week at this point, along with some core and mobility at home when I can, and I’m just beyond grateful for my body for doing so much for me right now while also growing this little human perfectly thus far 🥹🩵👶🏼 (swipe for the latest ultrasound glamour shot 🤣😍)

Clients have asked what I’m doing for work, and currently I’m scheduled til June 14 and am fully booked so all I can offer anyone moving forward is the cancellation list…. Otherwise let’s see if I make it til then 😅🙏🏻🤞🏻 due date is currently June 27 but there’s a few things up in the air and being monitored that may push that up sooner (don’t worry baby boy is perfectly healthy 🩵🙏🏻) so ya never know… my body is not in my control at this point and I am being forced to surrender to whatever my body and baby needs 🧘🏻‍♀️ meditation has been HUGE for me the last month and keeping my sane 😬🫠😜

Til then, just trying to stay healthy, stay mobile and active so I can keep working, and keep this little babe happy in my belly 🥰 thanks to my friends, family and clients for all the love and support 🩵🩵🩵 nervous but excited to meet my little man in a couple months and get this new chapter started with my best friend and favorite human ever

It’s been a minute! 🙌🏻 I haven’t posted here in over a month, and guess what! The world still turned and life moved on 🤪😅

Honestly was nice to break away. Life’s been busy. I’ve been tired and growing a human. Just gonna show up here when I feel like I can from here on out 🩵

Here’s a reminder that you can take some time from social media and still be booked, busy, and living life. 🙌🏻

Ready to be back in the salon this coming Monday 🧡

Im officially halfway through my pregnancy which is wild 😵‍💫 and coming back for these last 4 months of work before taking maternity leave is definitely going to look a tad different. I’ve realized physically I may be more limited… problem is I can’t predict how I’ll be feeling, so for now I’m just not booking myself as crazy as I “normally” would… it’s hard but it’s just reality. Keeping my body, baby, and my sanity in check is most important to me at this point. I’ve worked my b***y off for over a decade and being forced to slow down isn’t easy 😅 but ive accepted it 😇

Heres to hoping I have a smooth and healthy second half of pregnancy, and that I can continue to work as much as my body feels ok doing until the end 😬🩵🙏🏻

Grey blending and just a handful of foils to brighten to face frame 😍😍

I love when someone’s grey works FOR them and creates such beautiful dimension… 🤌🏻 we use a demi-permanent at her roots and over time some of her grey peeks through but it just ends up looking like highlights 😬 she’s a lucky one! 😅 Not everyone’s hair works that way! Lol

Finished with a fresh chop 🔪🔪🔪

Happy new year from me, my rare good hair day, and my fiancé turned baby daddy 😜!!! Hoping this year brings health, happiness and joy to everyone out there ❤️

Multiple ways to wear it ✅💚

A good block coloring goes a long way, and easily low maintenance in terms of lightening. We lighten this client maybe once a year and she can pop some color on top at home if she’d like, or come in for the creative color refresh every couple months

This color and SHINE ✨ its giving holiday vibes 🎄🎁🍒

Using all permanent color (she had virgin hair after 2 years not coloring) with strategic application, multiple formulas with differing developers based on where it was used during the application. Her ends needed a higher developer to yield the desired end result, and a lower developer as we approach the root area so there weren’t hot roots ✌🏻

Love this rich tone. These full root to ends color require about 8-10 week root touch ups… unless you go 2 years and let it do it’s thing 😜😅

Swipe to see the difference texture or wave adds to showcasing the color 😍

Couldn’t sleep so I’m going thru old pics 🤪 the teals always stop me mid scroll 🩵

This color reminds me of cranberry sauce 🤷🏻‍♀️ food is clearly still on my mind

Enjoying the long weekend over here. Gearing up for round 2 holiday season 🫣🤣

Happy Saturday!
