Minted Beauty NC

One of the things I love about this smoothing treatment is that it gives my clients another option.

It’s formaldehyde-free, keratin-free, and chemical-free, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a temporary smoothing service. When you’re ready for your natural texture again, your hair simply reverts.

Today I’m sharing the consultation. The finished results are coming next, so be sure to check back for the reveal.

I took a trip down memory lane and pulled out a few styles from the archives.

It’s always fun looking back and seeing how many beautiful looks have come through my chair.

The reveal is finally here.

A sleek short cut, a soft bang, and a finished look that fits her beautifully.

I added a few tracks in the front to create the shape and softness she was looking for, and the result speaks for itself.

If you missed her consultation, take a look at the previous post and then come back to see how it all came together.

She’s been natural since 2015, but that doesn’t mean she has to stay there.

Hair is personal, and what worked for you years ago may not be what you want today. Whether you’re transitioning to natural hair, going back to a relaxer, or trying a completely new look, you have the freedom to choose what makes you feel your best.

Consultation day is where it all starts. I reviewed her inspiration, discussed her goals, and mapped out her next look. Now it’s time to make it happen.

Come back in a couple of days to see the finished style.

At her last appointment, she was all about the curls. This time, she wanted something sleeker. The way she kept touching her hair and shaking it after I turned the chair around let me know we got it right.

Listen… summertime and short hair just make sense.
A good pixie is easy, soft, polished, and still turns heads without doing too much. This cut is giving effortless and pretty, and honestly, that’s the vibe.

Short hair season is definitely outside.

A month can make a difference when the focus is getting your hair healthy again.

At her first visit, she came to me after postpartum shedding, damage, and previous color. We started fresh with my chemical free smoothing service and a big chop to reset things and get her hair moving in a healthier direction.

One month later, we refreshed her color with a gloss for richer tone, shine, and vibrancy… and yes, growth is already showing. Nothing dramatic, just consistency, care, and healthier hair over time.

Hearing my client say she appreciated knowing the why and the how behind every step filled my heart completely. 💚 This is bigger than hair. You leave my chair informed, confident, and loved.
