Today is World Thyroid Day 💙

Nearly 9 years ago, just after this photo was taken, I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism (an under active thryroid) and later found out it was caused by Hashimoto’s thyroiditis — an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the thyroid. My trigger was childbirth. I was extremely ill and without immediate treatment my doctors words where ‘it could have very quickly led to a myxedema coma’ 🙈.

The thyroid affects:
• energy
• hormones
• metabolism
• heart rate
• temperature regulation
• mood & anxiety
• digestion
• skin & hair
• menstrual cycles
• brain fog & concentration

For many people, symptoms can be invisible while still affecting daily life in a huge way.

One of the biggest things I’ve learned over the last decade is how important it is to listen to your body and advocate for yourself. Autoimmune illnesses don’t always make you look “sick” from the outside.

If you’ve been struggling with symptoms and feel dismissed, keep pushing for answers. And if someone in your life lives with a thyroid condition, compassion and understanding go a long way.

Awareness matters because early diagnosis and proper support can genuinely change someone’s quality of life.

Symptoms of Hashimoto’s include:

* extreme fatigue or exhaustion
* brain fog / poor concentration
* feeling cold all the time
* weight gain or difficulty losing weight
* hair thinning or hair loss
* dry skin
* constipation
* depression or low mood
* anxiety/panic symptoms
* dizziness or feeling off balance
* muscle aches and weakness
* joint pain
* puffiness in the face
* hoarse voice
* slow heart rate
* heavy or irregular periods
* fertility struggles
* low exercise tolerance
* needing excessive sleep but still feeling tired

💙 To everyone navigating thyroid disease: I see you.

Back to brunette 😍

Who doesn’t love a good old glossy brunette?! So healthy 😍

POV: 75g of nanos completely transformed the hair 😮‍💨✨

Using just 75g of nano bonded extensions for this transformation!
Seamless blend, lightweight feel, and styled both straight & curly to show just how versatile they are 😍

Which look are you choosing… sleek or curls? 👀

Colour + weave combo 🤤

We took Mani back to her natural colour after being somewhere else previously for blonding. She wanted a low maintenance colour and someone that would make her hair look healthy and glossy. We added 120g of extensions for volume and a little bit of length. Obsessed!

Everything hallelujah 🙏🏼🧎‍♀️‍➡️

Sometimes all you need is a full head of highlights, a wet balayage and a good chop!!

10/10 to Marissa for her aftercare 👏🏼 using k18 at home has made her hair so much thicker!!! 🤍
