Before Midnight Hair

Brunette. Healthy. Long. Goals. We had a little help from 1 beaded row here but this is goals! How did she get here? She focused on her hair health from the inside out. She didn’t rely on some TikTok gimmick or buy a bunch of hair supplements. She focused on her blood work and healthy stress levels. That comes first. Serums, bonnets, oils, gummies….. that comes later. Having balanced nutrition and a balanced life is not easy so we all (including myself) try and buy our way out of it and skip the work. The real reason most people are losing hair is poor nutrition and stress. Your hair can take a lot more abuse if it’s strong. Most of us have weak hair to begin with and if we simply highlight or put heat on our hair it breaks right off. That isn’t NORMAL. Hair is naturally able to withstand a lot. I’ve been doing hair since 2001 and I’ve NEVER seen this much hair loss. Back then we did not have as good of products nor were we as mindful with haircolor. And I’ve seen more hair loss than ever these days. We are doing something wrong yall.

This was a good one and I’m pi**ed I didn’t get a before shot. We did 2 rows of beaded rows and layered it up! The extensions were custom colored with the new cover and mane extension color line! I’m in love. Even if you have multiple colors in your hair we can color match anything with all the new tools that are out now!

Recently, I have taken a course on business, and the part that dealt with branding took me in a totally different direction. It seemed like I was missing the mark a little bit after hours and hours working on the branding section of the course I realized that I needed to change a few things to align with the type of hair I do. Staying true to myself keeping it fun, I dove right in. I was pleasantly surprised that I didn’t have to change much as far as the salon. Soften out the color palette but keep the whimsy. After going through all the steps my vibe was(according to adobe) Parisian eclectic. Makes sense. My personal vibe is a bit more loud but I think that my salon vibe needs to speak to my clients more than me. But I was happy that I could figure out to make it speak to both. There are still Cinderella touches everywhere but they are more subtle and pretty. I love it.

Bringing this one back cause I just realized I never posted it…. I do a lot of corrective work when it comes to extensions. A lot of my clients are trying to grow out their fine hair or conceal breakage. Not this lady. She takes such good care of her hair that even with 24” extensions she is able to grow her hair. With long heavy extensions it’s super hard to keep from damaging your natural hair. The longer and thicker your extensions the more cautious you have to be. I don’t know how she does it but I see minimal hair loss everytime.
