Cool #blondes don’t love high heat. I stretched her first with intentional airflow using the @dysonhairpro Dyson Supersonic, so I could smooth the hair without overprocessing the color with heat. Less heat. Better tone retention. Better blondes. Airflow is color care too.

Trying to get a stylist’s hair done while everyone is working is basically a relay race 😂✨ @jbooneblowouts handled Deanna’s @iamnaturallove_ color, treatment, and @dysonhairpro prep before I jumped into the cut and styling phase somewhere between clients. Everybody @salonpk touched her hair at some point..and honestly, that was the fun of it all. 💛

There are just things we can say to each other in the salon that don’t feel safe to say online. There’s a heaviness so many are swallowing right now. The insane part is the ‘composure’… the expectation to keep smiling, posting, and performing while suppressing grief, exhaustion, and fist flinging anger at the state of the world. A lot of people are not okay. They’re just composed. The chair informs and heals mutually. ➰ -p

True + Pure Texture is proud to stand alongside Noir Echelon and the incredible artists behind this moment. The mission has always been the same. Celebrate texture. Elevate the stylists. Honor the legacy. Last night was proof that Black hair continues to lead the conversation in beauty and fashion. And we’re here for every moment of it.

Black hair has always been a space of creation. Always been art. Always been language. Always been legacy. To see texture centered so intentionally in these collections and to hear @jawaraw + @hair__poet to so passionately speak to its importance was beyond felt. Honored to support the vision at @echelon_noir Black Hair Reimagined through True + Pure Texture @trueandpuretexture , and to stand alongside artists who continue to shape, stretch, and redefine what’s possible through texture. I love that what we do goes far beyond beaut. ..it’s expression, history, innovation and community all at once. BLACK HAIR REIMAGINED 🖤 “The New Era of Beauty” Hair Creations By: @jawaraw @hair__poet @issacvpoleon @vernonfrancois @malcolm.marquez @the_garden_is_growing What a Night in NYC!! 🖤 #MetGalaWeekend

At @textureonset we asked pros @hairbyjsmith , @mitchellcantrellbeauty , @pekelariley , @keyaartistically , @thepaulaperalta , @kiasterlinghair , @curlfactor and @watchmyhairbounce to clear up the most lingering myths about textured hair. Some of their responses may surprise you! #ReadTheTease #TextureOnSet

@naeemahlafond did something today that took uber focus, core courage ,and love for the craft ..and she executed her hearts vision flawlessly. @textureonset was phenomenal! Some people were in that room today as witnesses. I was in that room as someone who knows exactly what it cost to get there. Grateful to see it! And my goodness, The honoring of Women! Honoring @itayshaphoto , @ursulastephen meant sooo much in a room full of the very women this industry has always undercredited and under championed. And and and celebrating my @chuckielovehair , whom I love dearly and have had the honor of sharing love, learning and sets with, felt like the whole room levitating and locked in at once. As he says: “the eye must travel . “ and we did. Today was another milestone in a long fought movement . Built on the backs of a whole communities of artists, educators, disruptors , first and onlys that kept showing up before it was meaningfully championed. A time was had! And a movement moves on. ❤️ One love. 💫
