Valerie's Wedding!

I met Valerie through one of my sweetest clients, Kourtney. These two have been best friends since college. Once Valerie decided to book me for her wedding I was able to spend some time with these two ladies together and they are hilarious! You can tell their friendship will last a lifetime, so its no surprise Kourtney was one of the Maids Of Honor.

When I first met Valerie I thought "holy hair", she has some of the prettiest hair I've ever seen...its also the longest and the thickest!!! She told me she wanted it up for the wedding and I knew I had my work cut out for me! Just to give you an idea here is Valerie's hair when I tried (unsuccessfully) to convince her to do half up half down :)



I'm so happy we decided to do all up because she looked so elegant! Here is the beautiful bride once her hair was complete.

*please note she made her and her bridesmaids flower pieces, perfection!!*
Once I get a picture of her in her dress I will post it on here asap!

Now onto the bridesmaids... Valerie's only requirement was that everyone have their hair up. The ladies basically let me do whatever I wanted and I had fun! Their hair did everything I wanted it to. Enjoy the photos!
This first photos are of Kourtney, were were going for the messy bun look.

HAIR DONATION

So we all talk about donating hair, many love the idea of it but few go through with it. Hair is so important to us and can become such a security blanket. I love when people actually go through with the donation. This is an homage to a few of my clients that did it!

The first two are Valerie and her daughter Olivia. These photos are the before and after and I think they look so beautiful!




 They are a pretty cute pair! They are still enjoying their short hair styles and are really happy they did such a good thing.

Grace is the next client who recently donated her hair. I've known Grace for a long time and as long as I've known her she has had and loved her long hair.


So it took some going back and forth but she went for it and it did her justice!
A special thank you to Valerie, Olivia and Grace! You are all beautiful on the inside and out!
We all know someone who has had cancer and lost hair during their battle. This just goes to show a little hair goes a long way!

Special Occasions

This weekend I was busy with week 1 of prom. I had a great group of girls in my chair. They were from different schools including, Cathedral, Westfield and Hamilton Southeastern. Prom is such a big deal in a teenage girl's life so I was happy the ladies trusted me to help them feel beautiful for the special evening (not that they needed much help at all, so pretty!!!)

The first two girls are Abby & Allie. They were cracking me up the whole time. The one request they had was no "poofy" hair.  No problem!




 




















My next client, Erica was inspired by a red carpet picture of Jennifer Aniston. The look is simple yet classy.

Kelsey was very easy going and up for anything. She just wanted it back somehow so here is what we came up with.


 




















To end my beauty crazed weekend I was lucky enough to do the hair for my darling cousin's first communion. I made a special house call for this one and we had alot of fun! Included below are some pictures of Madelyn as well as a short video from my flip video (thanks to my husband). Her sister, Meghan is trying not so subtly to sneak her way onto camera ;) Enjoy!

Rocking Reds!

Its been waaaay to long since my last post. I've been wanting to showcase how fantastic red heads are right now so this is long overdue!

Red is a hard color to pull off, but when you can do it heads will turn! One of my great friends, Angie, has trusted me to turn her from a brunette to a rich red head with some chestnut lowlights and I couldn't be happier with the results! She is beyond gorgeous and currently expecting so she's full on glowing in my current pictures. Here are a few of Angie before.....
Here she is on two different occasions rocking the red and some fun layers...


Below is another client , whose hair I would LOVE to have.
She came in with a lot of violet in her hair and wanted a more natural look. I added some highlights and darkened her red a bit and here are the results...



If you are thinking about altering your look, red a really fun way to go. I had fun changing it up with these ladies!

It's almost that time!

Summer is right around the corner and that means WEDDING'S and lots of them! Its one of my favorite times of year and my schedule is filling up for updo's. Whether your a bride, bridesmaid or mother of the bride or groom you need to start scheduling your appointment! My calendar is filling up quick but I still have some availability.... therefore I thought I would share some of my favorite styles I have done over the past few years.
These ladies don't need my help to look amazing but I LOVE their hair! Annie I'm so excited to do your
