Hand-Tied Extensions… but make it seamless ✨

Okay babe, let’s talk about the hair upgrade you didn’t know you needed 🤭

Hand-tied extensions are THAT girl when it comes to adding length, fullness, and effortless volume without the bulky, obvious tracks. We’re talking soft, natural, and blends so good no one will know (unless you tell them… which you will 💁‍♀️).

💖 Why you’ll be obsessed:
– Lightweight & comfortable (no headache vibes here)
– Lays flat to your scalp = invisible magic
– Perfect for fine to medium hair
– Gives you that “I just woke up like this” fullness

💖 Maintenance, but keep it cute:
– Move-ups every 6–8 weeks
– Treat them like your real hair (because they basically are now)
– Use good products & brush gently (we’re not fighting our hair anymore)

💖 Perfect for:
– Adding length without damage
– Thickening up thinner hair
– That soft, lived-in, baddie volume

✨ Warning: you may become emotionally attached to your extensions ✨

Hiya I’m Amanda Houghton (formally Johnson) but there’s another Amanda Johnson in the hair world here now so I legally finally changed my
LLC to my married name 🫶🏼

I’m an Idaho native who has been a solo stylist for over 10 years in the treasure valley doing extensions and all things hair and makeup! | love creating and connecting with each and every person who comes into the studio. I have put my heart and soul into creating a cozy warm environment to work in. It’s my passion to teach how to get the most out of your hair color at home and what products will help to maintain your hair until your next appointment.

On a personal note
I’m married with 3 sweetheart dogs who are my whole world. My husband and I are doing everything we can to have a baby of our own
It wasn’t on my bingo card to
ever mention this (as it isn’t my whole personality) but I want to be very upfront with my clients and future guests.
1 am still very much working full time behind the chair/ running the business, going to classes and staying up to date which has been soooo good for my soul!

At this time I’m only accepting new clients by referral from other clients or from my friends and family. My schedule is 8-10 weeks booked out and I want to continue to take care of long time clients but also take care of me! I have been rather positive about this whole thing and most people wouldn’t even know about this unless I have mentioned it.
I just can’t take on new bookings with the future scheduling for Dr. apts etc.

I have been doing a lot of work to slow my life down and calm my body. I enjoy my house plants and gardening in the summer, fishing on the snake river, going to hot Pilates, running with my husband and dogs, watching trashy tv and spending time with family and I will not lie, I LOVE junk food nights with my girlfriends (soooo good for my soul).
Thank you all for the continued love and support. And as always I’m so excited to catch up with you all at my cutie studio and make you feel a little more beautiful than when you walked in. And thank you to all the TTC/ mamas for makina this a safe place for me to share and for all the wonderful stories you have shared.
XOXO

Meet Poy!

Poy specializes in Thai Natural Healing Massage Therapy!

So what exactly is a Thai Massage you ask?!

Thai massage is a traditional healing massage that originated in Thailand. It combines acupressure, assisted stretching, and rhythmic compression to relax the body and improve flexibility.

This style of massage focuses on releasing tension, improving circulation, and restoring balance to the body. Unlike oil massages that focus mainly on relaxation, Thai massage is often described as a mix of massage and passive yoga, leaving many people feeling both relaxed and energized afterward.

The good ol’ 24 hour rule.

And here is why.

To prevent infection, irritation, and ingrown hairs because Sugaring leaves open hair follicles and sensitive, freshly exfoliated skin. Chlorinated water and the bacteria in natural bodies of water can enter these vulnerable follicles, causing issues like redness, inflammation (folliculitis), and potentially more serious infections.

👉 After 24 hours, most people find their skin is healed enough to enjoy intimacy without extra irritation — but if you still feel sore or notice redness, it’s okay to wait a little longer.

-Skin sensitivity & irritation: Sugaring removes hair from the root and exfoliates the top layer of skin, leaving the area more sensitive and vulnerable. Friction from s*x can cause redness, swelling, or small abrasions.
-Infection risk: Freshly sugared skin has open pores and microtears. Introducing bacteria (from skin-to-skin contact, sweat, or body fluids) increases the risk of irritation, ingrown hairs, or even infection.
-Comfort: The area may already feel tender or slightly inflamed. Waiting gives your skin a chance to calm down, so s*x feels a lot more comfortable and less painful.
-Better healing: Those first 24 hours are when your skin is adjusting and sealing back up. Letting it rest minimizes complications and helps your sugaring last longer.
