PLEASE READ! To all my lovely clients and friends, it is with a heavy, but excited heart that I share some news with you today. As some of you already know, I will be moving across the country in January. For many years, I have wanted to explore my horizons and experience living in a different place, but fear and many other things always got in the way. After taking a month this summer to travel and really think about what I want for my life, I decided to listen to the voice in the back of my head that has told me for years to be brave and take a leap of faith.

At the end of January I’ll be starting my long journey to Portland, Oregon! I have a mixed bag of emotions about this, but overall I’m excited to push myself out of my comfort zone and try something new. All things considered, I feel grateful to have the ability and opportunity to take a chance on myself.

I want to give a HUGE thank you to all of the people who have supported me in the last 14 years that I’ve been doing hair here in South Florida. I have felt so supported and loved by all of you who have been loyal clients over the years, who have believed in my craft, and who have shared many important life mile stones with me, and vice versa. You are my family, and I wouldn’t be who or where I am today without you, honestly!

With that being said, my last day working is January 14th. As we already know, the holidays are crazy and I have limited appointments left before I move. I want to be able to accommodate everyone before I leave, so please call ASAP and reserve your spot with me. There is a possibility that I will come back on a monthly basis, so if you want to be a part of that VIP group, please send me a text of DM so we can discuss details. Also- TURN ON POST NOTIFICATIONS FOR THIS ACCOUNT! I will be using this IG to communicate my travel plans back to Miami, so don’t miss out! I love you all very much, and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love and support all of these years. See you soon! 💚

What doesn’t kill you, makes you blonder 😆 I love when my clients grow up to be so cool 💫

Hello everyone! I just wanted to give ya’ll a heads up that I will be taking a small sabbatical for the month of July. Yes, that’s right- I will be traveling the ENTIRE month of July!! (Returning 8/2/22)

I know this seems like a long time, but my mind, body and soul need it! My book normally fills up really quickly on a normal basis, so I encourage you to make your appointments in advance because my availability for June and beginning of August is already limited.

I will be working additional days to try and accommodate everyone before I leave, so please call the salon and speak with JASON (305-448-0707) about your scheduling needs. All of my ladies and color clients- if you need to come in while I’m gone, will be there to act as my amazing substitute! For all of my guys, my good friend is there for you in downtown.

Thank you all for sticking with me and for your patience, I’ll be back first thing in August! If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly ❤️

Next month makes 14 years of doing what I love. I am very grateful for where I am today, for all of the people who have helped me in my journey, and of course, to the people I have had the pleasure of working on. Thank you for trusting little ‘ol me with your hair, for referring me, and helping me grow. There aren’t many things in life quite as rewarding as helping people feel good about what they see in the mirror ❤️

Highlight Salon is HIRING! We are looking to expand out team by adding 2-3 more stylists/ barbers to our amazingly talented staff. Applicants should fit the hip, fashion forward vibe we have created there, and must have a clientele that is willing to follow them. Does this sound like you, or someone you know? If so, send me a message, tag or share this post! Interviews will be held by yours truly 😎
