Turns out the ātalks too muchā on my report card really paid off šāāļøāØ
Not all āorganicā shampoos are created equal š
This video is the perfect example of silicone + product build up sitting on the hair shaft š³
Build up like this can leave the hair feeling:
⢠heavy
⢠constantly oily
⢠dull
⢠difficult to style
⢠and even smokey when heat is applied š„
What many people donāt realise is that in Australia, the word āorganicā on cosmetic products isnāt strictly regulated ā meaning some products can claim to be āorganicā with very little (or no) genuinely certified organic ingredients.
This is also why Iām so passionate about using quality professional haircare š¤
Cheap supermarket products can not only affect the health of your hair and scalp, but can also interfere with your colour results and even cause chemical reactions during colouring services.
If youāre investing hundreds into your hair colour, itās so important to support it with the right products at home āØ
Healthy hair starts with what youāre using every wash day.
(P.S. my client was more than happy for me to share this to help educate others⦠and you best believe she left with a whole new haircare regime š
)
Your hairdresser isnāt being dramatic⦠we can literally SEE the build up š

Lately š¤
Jacksonās back at school and weāre well and truly back into routine. Life feels busier than ever, but somehow itās all flowing so smoothly āØ
Iām feeling so blessed and grateful that the salon has been so consistent and busy ā which also means Iāve been a little quieter on here lately⦠but thatās kind of the goal isnāt it š
I also just wanted to say thank you⦠truly. I have the most incredible clients š¤
Being a mum and running a business can sometimes feel like you canāt give your best to both. I always said I wanted to be there for all the kidsā things ā Easter parades, Motherās Day breakfasts, awards and special moments⦠and Iām so grateful that I can.
But the truth is, thatās only possible because I have such understanding, supportive clients. So thank you š«¶š»
I have so many beautiful transformations to share with you, and I promise theyāre coming š¤

Iāve been a little MIA lately soaking up the Easter break and school holiday chaos š¤
Back in the salon tomorrow and ready for a fresh week āØ
Limited spots available this week ā send me a message if youāre needing an appointment š¤
From drab⦠to M**F (but make it low maintenance š
)
A sexy new wolf-inspired chop and some feature peekaboo highlights for my beautiful little sister āØ
Meet my OG guinea pig.
My day-one āyes girl.ā
Always ready to trust the process and try something new š¤
If youāre wondering why the salon looks unfamiliar⦠this is actually my very first home salon.
My parents built this space for me when I started my apprenticeship all those years ago.
These days, visits back to Mum & Dadās involve a whole lot of cousin chaos in the background⦠and a few sneaky hair makeovers squeezed in between š
Ready for your own low-maintenance glow up?
DM me āMAKEOVERā and Iāll help you plan your next appointment āØ

āØGolden hour hits different in here āØ
Soft light, quiet moments, and a little pause from the outside world while your colour processes.
Hair appointments here arenāt rushed ā theyāre a chance to slow down, switch off and leave feeling like you again.
If youāve been craving a more peaceful salon experience⦠this is your sign āØ
28/01/2026
A new salon experience should feel calm, clear and comfortable.
This is how I make sure every first appointment is relaxed, personalised and tailored to you ā so you feel heard, looked after and never rushed.
Thinking about becoming a new client? My books are open āØ
15/01/2026
Iāve been a little quiet on here ā soaking up family time, easing back into work for the New Year, and making the most of these last weeks before Jackson starts school š¤ Weāve been spending any spare minutes soaking up the sun, getting lots of skiing and swimming in, and just enjoying being together. Feeling very grateful.
Still working and taking bookings, so if you need an appointment just send me a DM āØ

Iāve gone back and forth with how my work days would look this year šš¼āāļø
Iām feeling extremely blessed to have continuous new client enquiries, however my 2 work days were maxed out. So it feels like the right time to open up some more days š
Iām excited to be opening up some extra days, however hours may vary and change slightly depending on how we are all managing.
2026 is a big year for our family with our little man starting school, so please bare with me while we adjust to our new norm.
Once again, thankyou for your ongoing support.
