Evergreen Salon

Sweet, Reija must now name Her first born after me... lol, beautiful in any shade, 9 hours, 3 doses of color eraser , one overnight rest in protein and reconstructor, one more does of eraser, root color, color balancing and toning on middle and ends followed by a gloss with some liquid gold... This project almost made me quit my day job after 30 years, but luckily I like a good challenge.. merry Christmas everyone!! This sweet young lady looks good in any shade...

Feeling festive

So I’m allowed to do any service on the porch that does not require a client to enter my salon. ...ok, .

Board of Barbering and Cosmetology, Department of consumer affairs. I have received no formal updates. Limited services on the porch? How will that ensure client safety ? Which ones? So now my income can drop more? But also makes me not qualify for unemployment since I’d be turning down work? Who’s looking out for the self employed hairdresser.? Are we getting our color done? Or making a dent in virus control... kinda confused.. #Buissnessownerinthedark.

From brassy.. to crystal clear..requested icy, which tends to have a blue/purple toner that can leave behind a purple grey cast.. instead we used a pearl based purple/pink/blue balance... and boom, Pinterest has changed hair expectations forever... this was 3 processed color, heavy highlights, mild bleach wash to remove excess yellow from mid shaft to ends,glosser with a toner based formula to seal, condition and enchance shine while controlling tone. color is not whst it used to be. Luckily I can still keep up at 29 years in.

I am READY !!! How about you?? Looking forward to scheduling soon!!

Awwww... I miss you too !!

Careful what we ask for!!

Just a thought, I know it’s hard to go without a regularly scheduled appointment for color touch ups and grey coverage... PLEASE, before you are tempted by the box color at the store or online, consider taking the most gentle approach. I say that with fear in my heart for gentle is not something that we as Professionals use to describe the after effects and long term damage from most store bought color... MY TIP is to look for the spray On temporary root touch up products. Most will camouflage grey well enough and washes out easily. Again, just a thought

My natural ombré level 6.5 med brown disappeared... If it wasn’t for the calloused thumb and ring finger I’d wonder who’s hands I had... missing a big part of my day, I hope you all are safe and well!!

Hide the scissors.. or maybe post a picture when done. ?? I have a hard time cutting straight lines with house scissors so a little at a time !!

As I ran my fingers threw these 4 month old Hairdream extensions it made me realize with all the extension options flooding my stream , and all the after pictures of long beautiful soft curls, is anyone willing to show off their connective points at 4 months??? With no maintenance, and easily another month or two before they should come out, these are still going strong! I think there are some important questions to ask before you commit.. 1. How long should I expect them to ...last? 2. How difficult to remove? If needed ? When needed? 3. How easily detectable are the connective points? 4. Can I run my fingers threw them? 5. Will the quality of hair match or surpass my own? Any questions on extensions? Feel free to ask me, as a 15 year certified Hairdreams stylist I would be sure to learn the facts before you settle. Proud to show my 4 month old connective points off!! #HairdreamsUSA

Yes red rods are the smallest.. Can you guess what year I went to beauty college??
