Gentle blending
At @saloncleancurly , it’s not always just about curly cuts and styling. Sometimes we’re here to bring creative color solutions to the table. So what do you do when you have old color that has grown out and faded, you want it to feel brighter and refreshed, you want to blend through a prominent grey streak in the front, but you don’t want to commit to a single process color and having to have it retouched every four weeks? Well for this client an all over lowlight was the ans

Sometimes you just need a little shaping while your hair is growing out 😻 Have you ever taken the BOLD step to chop off all of your hair to get rid of an old relaxer?

Ever wondered what a curly cut appointment actually looks like from start to finish? This is Amelie’s third time in our chair — and every visit looks a little different, because curly hair isn’t static. It grows, it changes, you change.

Hairdressers need hair cuts too!
Even curl specialists need a little love sometimes. 🥹 I recently trimmed my own hair, but it needed a little tweaking — so I reached out to Laura @lalaschoolhouse because she’s been doing some of the cutest short curly cuts, and honestly? I also just wanted to meet her. So many curl specialists work in isolation, and there’s something really special about being in the same space as someone who does what you do and speaks the same language. (I’ve also had the pleasure of seei

A Little About Me!
A little something about me as a hairdresser that you may not already know. I was not always a curl specialist (in fact, I was not always a hairdresser at all. This is a second career for me but I digress). In my early days of hairdressing, I worked in a wonderful salon in downtown Delray Beach, Florida. An organic hair salon that specialized in dry cutting. Back in those days, we would straighten most clients’ hair before cutting it. Every once in a while, I get the opportu
