Is your hair actually frizzy... or is it just thirsty?

One of the biggest myths I hear behind the chair is that frizz means your hair is misbehaving. In reality, frizz is often your hair asking for moisture, protection, or a different styling approach.

I just published a new blog post breaking down why curly hair gets frizzy, what causes it, and what you can actually do about it.

Give it a read here:

And if you've ever fought with your curls, tell me in the comments: what's your biggest curly hair struggle?

Somehow… bangs are back again.

Which sent me digging through old photos and unfortunately uncovering evidence from my very first professional haircut in the 90s. And yes. The bangs were aggressive.

So I wrote a new blog post:
“To Fringe or Not to Fringe?”

It’s part hairstylist advice, part emotional support group, part public humiliation.

We’re talking:
• curtain bangs vs blunt bangs
• who actually looks good with bangs
• the grow out process nobody warns you about
• why we keep getting tempted every few years
• and whether getting bangs is ever truly a good idea

Featuring several deeply embarrassing throwback photos because apparently I have no shame.

And if this post convinces you to get bangs… just know I offer complimentary bang trims between haircut appointments because we’re all in this together. ✂️

I haven’t posted in a while… but the work never stopped.

Lately I’ve been loving seeing my space through your eyes, the little moments, the fresh hair, the ‘wait, I feel like myself again’. Its behind the lens from in the chair energy and I'm here for it.

More of this coming soon!
