A college buddy, a stunning bride! *Jill's Wedding*

Sooo back in my college days there was this spunky girl on my dorm floor named Jill. When you meet Jill you just love her instantly! She was one of my first "haircuts" using regular household scissors (I mean that's trust) so I was truly tickled when years later she contacted me to do her wedding hair!!!

Jill is a great example of why "trial runs" can be so helpful for both the bride & the stylist. When we first sat down we talked I did her hair she liked it then later contacted me and said she wanted something a little less structured more organic and effortless.... I'm sooo glad she did because the result fit her perfectly! 

*these professional photos were taken by her friend and bridesmaid Lacey Vollmer* 

*also note they make my iPhone photos look terrible* ;)

 We decided post ceremony that removing the veil and adding a flower would be just the right touch.

An action shot of me working on the bride!

Her bridesmaids were really great! They included her 2 sisters & 2 girlfriends. Luckily they all had great hair to work with! Makes my job super easy! Enjoy the photos of these pretty ladies!

Getting our teasing on! Love these before shots

After....ahhh love

My iPhone version :/ but she's still got some major fab hair!

Jill's older sister but I'm pretty sure they could easily pass as twins!!

And the final beauty

Fall in Love

Last October I had the honor of being a bridesmaid in my sister in law, Gabrielle's wedding. It was beautiful, there is something so romantic about fall weddings.

I was thrilled when she asked me to also do the hair! She is great to work with & I knew her other bridesmaids would be great fun as well.

I truly fell in love with Gabrielle's hair that day

The unique part that she added, which was genius, was she asked her grandmothers for old jewelry to see if she could implement them somehow. We looked through a bunch of great pieces and came across these earrings and I knew they were perfect for her style...

I couldn't get my hands on a picture of every beautiful bridesmaid but here are the photos of the hair I could grab, enjoy!

The couple right before the ceremony

What a great couple & what a great wedding! Thank you Gabrielle for trusting me on your big day!!

Wedding Catch Up

Kristen's Wedding

Even though it was last summer it definitely has to be on my blog! Kristen is such a sweetheart! I've known her since high school and she runs around with a great group of ladies! One of her bridesmaids, Colleen is getting married this October. I'm thrilled to be doing the wedding hair!

Here are some pictures of Kristen & Co. getting ready on her wedding day....

What an adorable couple! Thank you Kristen for including me in your special day! You were wonderful to work with!!!

My New Move

I realize how ridiculously long it's been since my last post. Since giving birth to my daughter last July I've been slacking on my blog but luckily not on the hair ;)

Soooo much has happened in the past year, the arrival of my beautiful daughter (with a great head of hair), weddings, special events, and most recently I've moved salons!

I'm planning on posting PLENTY of catch up pictures from previous events but wanted to dedicate this post to my new stomping ground, The Beauty Lounge

Located right off Main Street in downtown Carmel. 

Here are a few photos on the interior

The salon has 3 floors. This is a waiting area on the main floor which is where the hair is done.

Ahh the shampoo bowl....it's also a massage chair ummmm yes please!

So that's a little snippet of The Beauty Lounge! Other than the location everything else is the same, my schedule, my products etc....contact me directly for appointments!
