Aerosol and Haircare Product Collection Drive

I’m so excited to be able to put this collection drive together, and wanted to be able to answer a lot of your questions in one place.

Bleach versus Lightener – What you should know

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve heard the phrase “bleach this hair” throughout my career. Heck, I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve said it myself before learning more about it. The Cambridge and American Dictionaries define “bleach” and “bleaching” as “to remove the colour from something or make it lighter, withContinue reading “Bleach versus Lightener – What you should know”

May/June Newsletter

I usually try to stay ahead of the next month and have a newsletter ready to go, but, May seems to have gotten away from me. So to save me coming up with one halfway through one month just to come up with another in a few weeks, I decided I’m just going to combineContinue reading “May/June Newsletter”

The concepts of “nature” and “natural”

Towards the beginning of my Nature and Humanity course, we ventured into the topic of “nature” and “natural” and what those words mean to us and how they’re used in day to day speech in ways that are effective, problematic, and everywhere in between.

It’s been a while

And I’m not going to make apologies or excuses. I’m a real person with a real life to handle in addition to my business. But I do miss everyone. What’s been keeping me so busy?

Behind my chair I want to start with the way I photograph hair behind the chair. When you’re browsing InstagramContinue reading “Let’s talk about photos”

Holy Vaccine Response, Batman

Many of you knew I got two doses of the Pfizer Covid vaccine in early 2021 and that the second dose kicked my butt. My second dose was about 12:30 pm and by 10:30 I couldn’t pinpoint what exactly, but something felt off. By 3:30 am the body aches and chills and sweats had keptContinue reading “Holy Vaccine Response, Batman”

Day Owl Backpacks

I’m not going to lie to you, I’d never spent this much on a backpack before. But there were a number of things that went into deciding to bite the bullet and go for it and honestly, this is probably the best backpack I’ve ever owned. I bundled my backpack with a matching cord pouchContinue reading “Day Owl Backpacks”

More Color Correction Fun

And this time on myself! The main purpose of this post is to really document and highlight how much work really goes into color corrections, even ones that seem “simple,” and to stress how important it is to make sure you’re informed and prepared for what’s going to go into a correction. The first thingContinue reading “More Color Correction Fun”

Kind Laundry

What started as a combined search effort to be both lower waste as well as not have to carry a big jug of detergent back and forth when I needed to do the laundry at work led me to discover Kind Laundry. Are laundry detergent sheets a new thing? Somewhat. Is Kind the only companyContinue reading “Kind Laundry”
