Something different

Here I have a gal who wanted to put a little more length on the one side. This for me was WAY out of my comfort zone, but am SO glad I had the opportunity to do this for her! What matters is that she left happy & loving it...Chalk that one up for a satisfied client :)

Acrylic Nails

Here is a collage of a set I did on myself. This is the 1st set of Acrylics I have ever done, let alone to do them on myself... I'd have to say I'm pretty proud of myself!

 

 

Here is a collage of Acrylic nails I have done on a few friends and family members. There are so many fun things you can do with them and I hope that I can be patient enough to keep practicing and get better!

 

 

 

 



First Tape in extensions

Here are after shots of the first Tape in extensions I did! I need to remember to get before shots too! I will enjoy to see the progress and different things I will do with them.

Balayage & pop of Red-Violet

I had a gal come into school and wanted some blonde highlights put into what she had natuarally. So I did what is called a Bayalage (same thing as highlights/weave) but done differently without the foils. Needless to say, she walked out with her blonde highlights and some fun pops of Red-Violet on her right side next to her ear and into her faux hawk and then on her left side in her faux hawk. It was a super fun thing to do... definitely out of my comfort zone lol.

 

 

A-Line cut on natural curly hair

Here are after shots of an A-Line cut I did on a friend with SUPER curly hair! I cut her hair dry (after doing the perimiter wet) which allows her to style it straight or curly & I love how much of a different look she gets!

 

 

First Woman's cut

Here is my first woman's cut done on my beautiful Step-Mom :) Because I was going to night school at the time, we didn't style it... she was headed home to go to bed :) At the time, I didn't know that we were supposed to do more of a basic cut, but I did amazingly well for doing more than I really knew how to do! Go me!!!

 

 

This is me!

Hey everyone! I started attending Taylor Andrews Academy of Hair Design and Esthetics when I was about 4 months pregnant with our daughter Oakley in April of 2012. I started with a good friend and have loved every minute of it so far! I always like to learn new things and get out of my comfort zone and to be challenged at something new.

Thus far, I have become certified in hair extensions (my personal favorite), taken an eyelash extension class for Minky's brand extensions (not so much my favorite lol), Schwarzkopf Color, Matrix Color, Sebastian Product line, doTERRA Oils class, Dermalogica (skin care) class, Business class from our awesome school owner Amanda Maxfield, Colorproof Product class and an amazing cutting class from the austounding Philip Wilson!

I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to do what I love! Which is all girlie things!
