if there’s one thing i’ve learned it’s that being good at what you do doesn’t mean giving every piece of yourself away. boundaries don’t make you difficult bby - they make you sustainable xo
are you ready for our version of telepathy? here’s what you say vs what we know it means:
📣 “Just do whatever you think will suit me.”
💭 You want exactly what you had last time. But if we change anything and you don’t like it, thats on us.
📣 “Take off however much you think it needs to be healthy.”
💭 You mean one centimetre. Max. Any more and you’re crying in the car.
📣 “I’m ready for a change.”
💭 You want the Rachel Green cut.
📣 “I want something bold and creative.”
💭 You also want the Rachel Green cut.
📣 “Let’s go short!”
💭 A lob. You want short that’s still long. Just shorter than long. Just short long.
📣 “I’m thinking a fringe?”
💭 You’re about to break up with someone, you just haven’t realised it yet.
📣 “I want a French bob.”
💭 You want to look like a 90s it-girl crossed with a Pinterest mood board and you will cry when you realise you look like Lord Farquaad without makeup and a blowout.
📣 “I want low maintenance.”
💭 You want a lived-in cut, weekly blowouts, six-week trims, and to never use heat tools again.
📣 “I’m growing it out.”
💭 You’re about to cancel every appointment for six months and then beg us to fix the ends we warned you about and we’ll have to take off 2.5 inches.
Want help picking your next delusional haircut? We’ve got you bby. x

there’s honestly nothing better than the moment a client sees their hair for the first time -
soft brunette balayage, gorgeous dimension + that glossy, “expensive brunette” finish we’re becoming known for lately.
the goal is never just lighter - it’s wearable colour that grows out softly, reflects light beautifully, and still feels effortless weeks later.
even with brunette balayage like this, creating softness and dimension still comes back to strategic lifting, placement and refined blonding techniques - which is why working with a blonde specialist (@elcapone_____ ) makes such a difference in the final result.
