If you have ever left the salon with a haircut that only works some of the time, this is for you read on!

That was Marcela’s story.
She came to me after getting layers months that were stacked in a way that didn’t support her natural texture — a mix of wavy and curly.
The result? A cut that felt disjointed and hard to style unless she wore it a very specific way (which she rarely did).

As a hair cutting specialist with over 20 years experience, the first thing I asked wasn’t “What are we doing today?” — it was:

“How do you want to feel in your hair?”
She said: “Polished and feminine.”

From there, we got CLEAR:
✔️ She doesn’t wear her natural texture often
✔️ She wanted something soft, wearable, and low-maintenance
✔️ We Spoke about a  length she was comfortable
✔️ Her stylist abilities and how much time and effort she wanted  to out into styling
✔️ She wanted something that aligned with her new role at work
✔️ She had a strong inspo photo that aligned with how she styles her hair most days

We kept her fringe (just refined it a bit), and I chose to cut it dry — so she could see the transformation in real time and I could soften the harsh layering from her previous cut.

✨ Because here’s the truth:
Your haircut should reflect your everyday life, not just your sometimes look.

And here’s another truth no one talks about enough:
Without clarity — you only get half of what you truly want.

A custom haircut starts with the right questions.
And a lived-in effortless haircut is shaped with intention, not assumption.

💇🏽‍♀️If Looking for a stylist who cuts for your life, not just your hair you're in the right place. After many years of my books closed Im excited to be able to open them up again for some new faces and new hair.
