*hairstylist, funny girl, creative enthusiast*
i spent too many years trying to fit molds that weren't mine to fill. now i'm here, and look at that, so are you.
born in 1997, I am a gen z girlie with millenial tendancies.Â
i have a bachelor's degree in music from grand valley state university
i have 2 cats that bring me so much joy
i crochet, read, and rewatch the same 3 tv series in my free time
my hair has been through a lot during my time at douglas j, swipe if you want to go back in time with me!
ultimate goal as a hair stylist:
it is important to me that everyone leaves my chair feeling conident. i want my clients to have the freedom to match the exterior of their presence to their interior. are you colorful? are you natural? are you atheletic, fashionable, busy, bored, excited, or any other descriptive word you can think of? tell me about you, and let me cultivate a healthy relationship between you and your hair
open to all hair types, styles, cuts, colors, and more.
experience with cut, color, lift, tone, perm, relaxer, blow outs, hot tools, braids, natural texture, smoothing, cleansing, maintenance, and open to more!
