🍂 Happy First Day of Fall! 🍂

Olive is officially surrounded in fall goodness and I cannot wait to share it with you! It’s my absolute favorite time of the year. 🎃

When you come in for an appointment between now and November 13th, you’ll be treated to:

🍂 Pumpkin Pie Latte

🍂 Smoked Maple Latte

🍂 Apple Pie Martini

Y’all, it’s hard to choose over here right now.

… AND we brought back our orange jojoba scalp treatment this year for you to treat your scalp as we go into the drier months! 🧡

✨ This is your sign to book that appointment.

Do it for you.

Whether you’re in need of a little pick-me-up or craving a big change, book that hair appointment. You deserve it! 💕

✨ Friendly Reminder ✨

I will be out of the salon July 23rd - July 29th. If you reach out to me during this time, I will get back with you when I am back in the suite on July 30th.

I hope your Sunday has been lazy, and you start your week feeling refreshed. 🌿

Let me tell you, prioritizing ways to make the simple things throughout your day bring you a little extra spark of joy is so important.

Most of us don’t make time in our day to nurture ourselves properly. So, why not just find ways to romanticize the things we are sure to do? ✨

Could I pour plain coffee and creamer into a regular mug and it serve the purpose? Yep, but I’d rather make a little maple sea salt latte in a pretty glass.

It tastes better if it’s prettier, right? 😅

Light your favorite candle, watch the sunset, work a hair mask into your routine, and get that cute notebook to make your to-do lists more exciting.

You get where I’m going with this. If you don’t do this in your life already, I highly recommended finding one thing you can add in to bring yourself some well-deserved joy.

If you already do this, what’s something in your life you enjoying romanticizing? 💕

You’re ready to transition to lived-in color if…

✨ You’re tired of the upkeep required with traditional color techniques.

✨ You’re ready to start the journey to embracing your grays.

✨ You’re mostly loving your color, but you’re craving a softer look, or some natural dimension.

✨ You’re new to coloring your hair.

✨ You love being a blonde, but you’re sick of the high maintenance routine, or feeling a bit too solid blonde.

Do any of these sound like the thoughts you’ve been having? If so, it’s time to get on my books! 💛

I want to help you heal your dry scalp. 💛
Because I’ve suffered from this myself, I know how annoying it can be.

Here’s a few of my favorite tips to get you started:

- Drink more water! Hydrate from the inside out. 💦

- Invest in a quality oil for at-home weekly scalp treatments. You can even leave this in over night and shampoo the next morning. Jojoba is my favorite!

- Cut back on your shampooing. Daily washing can strip away sebum (the natural oils your scalp produces). These natural oils are needed to maintain your scalp’s moisture.

- When you do shampoo, cleanse well! Products like dry shampoo and temporary root cover-up can build up on your scalp. This is why it’s important to double-cleanse on your wash days. 🫧

- Weather can definitely be a factor in the health of your hair and scalp. While you obviously can’t control this, it’s important to be aware of. You may need to give your scalp a little extra love during the winter months!

Wishing you well on your scalp healing journey ✨

What the heck is a money piece? Do you need one? Let’s talk about it! 👇🏼

A “money piece” is that section in the front of the hair that creates a bold contrast from the rest of the hair on the head.

This is something that is customized to your personal preference. It can be as natural, or as bold, as you would like.

Why is it called a money piece? Honestly, I think people just love naming hair techniques and colors funny names to make them stand out. 😅

… BUT it could have its name because it’s made to be a statement piece, the first thing people see, to brighten your complexion, and really make your hair color pop! ✨

10/10 recommend 💛

Because we tend to criticize ourselves more than anyone else, actively being kind to ourselves is so important.

We can’t get everything done in a day, and everything isn’t going to be perfect the first time.

… and that’s okay! 📣 Our productivity does not define our worth.

So, surround yourself with people that lift each other up, practice your gratitude, and speak kindly to yourself. You’re doing your best.

Have you given yourself grace today? 💛

Taking care of your scalp plays a vital role in reaching your healthy hair goals.

Sometimes, we put so much focus on what we’re putting on our hair that we get frustrated when we aren’t seeing the results we’re searching for.

This is because we often forget our scalp is where the health of our hair stems from.

Here’s a quick list of some things you can do to up your scalp care game:

- Using a silicone scalp massager brush a couple times a week increases circulation and helps remove build-up.

- Give your brushes a good wash monthly! 🧼

- Invest in a quality oil to give yourself a little at-home scalp treatment. Jojoba oil is my favorite!

Taking care of your scalp balances sebum production and helps promote hair growth.
Scalp care is skin care, y’all! 💆🏻‍♀️
