Soft, bouncy, and built to last ✨
This beauty’s blowout got an upgrade with @frenchbarrelettes —set into the hair between flat iron passes for that extra OOMPH!
No time for a traditional wet set? Enter the dry set.
✨Same drama, way less time
✨Just 10 extra minutes
The stainless steel core locks in heat to lift at the root, while the polyester mesh wraps each strand in silky smoothness and shine.
✨ Big body. Glossy finish. Effortless glam.
Honestly… my only regret was not grabbing a “before” 😩
Custom color formula:
@schwarzkopfusa 7-12 + 6-00 to build a neutral base. The 7-12 cancels out those warm undertones so we’re not seeing any red/orange peeking through after the lift.
Added 12 strategic foils to brighten and frame her face just right ✨
Toned with: 8-19 + 7-42
Safe to say… I’m impressed 😌🔥
Finding purpose has led me right where I’m meant to be—pouring into the next generation. ✨
Twice a week, I host a FREE cosmetology class with @pgparks , alongside an incredible fellow stylist, Charmaine Ford @maine_stream . Together, we’re teaching youth real skills in the beauty industry—from knotless braids to sewing extensions, to hot tools styling, plus product knowledge and pathways to success.
This is bigger than hair. It’s about confidence, creativity, and showing them what’s possible. 💫
I can’t wait to share more of my teaching journey.

I love a traditional install… but not the time it takes 😅
So here’s the solution to my (and your) dilemma: U-Part wigs.
The secret to a flawless unit? Customization.
I constructed, colored, and cut this one to fit my head and natural hair perfectly.
And my favorite part? Taking it off at night and waking up with perfect curls every time ✨
One of the most beautiful qualities about our hair is versatility. Of course with the proper treatment.

This was a full color service, treatment and blowout. LOVE IT!
Honestly, nothing, I mean NOTHING, compares to the feeling you get after a new install.

One of my favorite things to do is create super natural looks with extension hair. YES! This is a traditional sew in. I created these beautiful highlights on relaxed texture extension hair, by @indiquehairsilverspring before the installation. This saved me and my client ALOT of time. LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it turned out.

‘Tis the season for a traditional install…well, in my opinion it’s ALWAYS the season. Traditional extension installs provide a natural look and feel with a lot of versatility.
