FAQ # 1: How often should I be washing my hair?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Well, this partially has an impact on you, your hair, and your lifestyle.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Washing hair too often can put your scalp into shock to some extent causing it to dry out, or it can cause your scalp to go into overdrive in oil production. Excessive washing can fade your color/ toner prematurely, dry out your ends, and in Reno, it can speed up the hard water build up, in turn, dulling out your ends.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In a general suggestion, I advise washing your hair every 3-4 days depending on your lifestyle and needs. Unless you’re literally getting your hair muddy or soaking in chlorine, you can probably push your wash day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Feel like you can’t feel clean unless you wash your hair? Try substituting one of your shampoos for just a wet down and condition approach to add some detangling and softening properties back in your ends but keep some of the moisture at your scalp.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m a once - maybe twice a week shampoo-er, how often are you washing your hair?!

If you had the opportunity to get quick help or advise on any hair related topic, what topic(s) would you want to be addressed?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Styling techniques? Keeping your color fresh between appointments? Preventing environmental factors that impact our color and hair health?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If there is a way that myself, or another stylist finishes your hair for a salon quality style that you just cannot recreate on your own, ask away! This is the time to ask!

Through my handful of career changes, I have always taken into account my schedule, time off, and work-life balance.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While pursing special and elementary education, I was considering summers and school breaks off; when I switched to the hair service industry, I was thrilled to find I could choose my own hours and working days.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This flexibility allows me to keep all my guests’ hair looking fresh, while still allowing me the flexibility to take time to refresh and relax with my friends and family.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This summer we were so blessed to be able to go all the places on many mini getaways. One of our favorite trips this summer was our regularly scheduled getaway to the desert with friends to Night in the Country.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Being able to get away for trips like these are the perfect reset to stay refreshed and enthusiastic for all of my beloved clients.

Is this not such a versatile caramel mocha balayage?! Leilani began with just a few pops of caramel before eventually deciding to go all in and embrace the balayage for spring and summer.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We decided to add in quite a few more pops of color with a heavier foilyage and sealed in all that beauty with a Brazilian blowout leaving her sparkling all summer long.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you more of a dive right in kind of person, or a wade in the shallows before making a change kind of person?

Hello! I'm Britta, do we know each other yet?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was raised in a small farming and beach town in Northern California (hello fellow bay arean’s that are familiar with Half Moon Bay!), where I spent the majority of my free time raising livestock for my local 4H and FFA chapters and playing a plethora of sports throughout the years. Following high school, prior to beauty school, I moved to Laramie, Wyoming to pursue my degree in Elementary and Special Education at the University of Wyoming (Go Pokes!). Though I loved my experience, it was time to follow my heart’s true interest to beauty school.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
From day 1, I realized how much I value human interaction with my guests and helping them attain goals greater than I ever could have dreamed. Having your trust to work magic on your hair is an absolute pleasure; connecting and growing with you through every appointment is a dream come true and I can’t wait to have you in!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Behind the chair you can find me exploring your best hair transformations. I love a good lightening session through a bold but lived in style that allows you flexibility through maintenance appointments to fit both your schedule and budget as best as possible. Color in all senses has always been where I can explore and express my true passion, which developed as early as beauty school and is still growing with every appointment!
