Pro tip: All the elements have to work together, speaking to that confident cool girl we all want to be.

Hidden talent: I’m really into updos, I just don’t like doing them in abundance.

Fun fact: Lifting heavy weights! I’m strong.

My audience follows me because: They like the hair inspo and random funny things I say.

How social media changed my life: It’s opened the doors to new friends, clients and the power to choose what type of hair you want to create.

My first @modernsalon feature: It was a dimensional warm brunette. I had been ’gramming for at least a year and it felt like I hit the holy grail of reposts!
