Its just hair- I was there when you didnt like the way you looked. Its just hair- when you are getting ready to interview for your dream job and we needed to get you a full makeover and pep talk Its just hair- when all you wanted in the whole world is a hug from your hair stylist because you knew theyd give it to you with open arms! Its just hair- when you just found out your expecting and havent shared the news with anyone else yet Its just hair- when you lost your job and didnt know what you were going to do Its just hair- when you were getting a divorce and just needed to feel better about yourself. Its just hair- when you had a terrible day and looked forward to being able to vent without being judged Its just hair- when I came in after hours to get your hair done before a last minute early morning flight to make it home in time to see a loved one before its too late Its just hair- when you are about to go on vacation and cant wait to tell me all about it on your next visit Its just hair- when you bought your very first home Its just hair - when I buzzed it all off and cried with you.

We Are Going To Get Through This

Happy Easter!! Is anyone doing anything like this today?? (Graphic by fabartdiy)

How to: Trim your Blunt Bangs a Tutorial

HOW TO: Trimming Blunt/Straight-Across bangs Hey guys! This is my first of my DIY hair tutorials! Please be careful with using scissors around your face & fingers! I tried to keep the video as simple as possible, but if you have any questions, please let me know. A couple things before you do anything:... 1. This video is at the discretion for use to those that already have front bangs. There are some differences when cutting a fresh bang. 2. I highly suggest using proper barbering/hairstyling shears. Kitchen scissors are not recommended as they damage the hair, and may not give the same outcome. 3. Always take a little at a time! You can always cut more off if you feel its still too long. Have fun!

Public statement to all beauty salons.

I cant believe it was only a week or so ago, I was taking selfies in front of the mirror at work without a care in the world. I am still in disbelief that Im not doing what I love right now; my passion, hair. As an independent hairstylist, and makeup artist, I am absolutely worried as to what the future holds, but I thank everyone for their support, and I am here for any and all of your hair questions during this time. Ill also be sure to update you as to when Ill be back..., but for now, it is our duty to #flattenthecurve and #staythefuckhome ______________________________________________ I know there are some of those who are still working right now, as they are considered to be essential during this time. And I just want to thank you for keeping us safe, fed, and taken care of. We are in your debt. . . . . . . . . #yqg #windsorontario #hairstylist #potd #pandemic #covid_19 #selfisolation #postoftheday #coronavirus #update #essentialworkers #thankyou #passion See more

I have been contemplating this over the last 24 hours, and this is not an easy decision to make. I have decided it is in everyones best interest that I temporarily take a step back. This virus is far bigger than us, and the only way we have a fighting chance is if we implement social distancing into our daily lives until we can overcome this. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I promise you that your hair will look better than ever when I can finally see you again. Your ...health, my health, and the health of the planet is just far more important right now. I love you guys. Stay safe. And thank you for the continuous support.

With everything that has been going on regarding the Covid-19 pandemic, it is important to me to issue a statement to my clients, friends and family. ____________________________________________ It has always been of upmost importance to keep a sanitary environment for you guys. With the pandemic being added to the equation, I will be taking less appointments and cleaning rigorously. If you are feeling ill, or have ANY concern regarding the virus or your health, please messag...e me and I would be more than happy to reschedule your appointment. Your hair is important, but your health is more important. Thank you. Stay safe. . . . . #yqg #windsorontario #hairstylist #coronavirus #covid19 #pandemic See more
