My Story

Tell us about your hair journey.

My hair journey has been long and interesting. It started back in 8th grade when I started deciding what to do with my hair myself. I’ve had all types of cuts and colors. I always enjoy changing my hair; it’s a big part of me.

Describe your hair in 5 words or less.

My hair is fun!

How did you wear your hair when you were younger?

When I was younger, my hair was either in a ponytail or sometimes just left out.

Style you’ll never wear again?

There’s no style I’d never wear again, I loved them all.

My Hair Through the Years

Channeling RihRih

I rocked a long bob for awhile. I had cut my hair at the end of my senior year and was growing it out. My hair inspiration was and has always been Rihanna! I love the way bobs look!

My First Ombré

I got my first ombre when it was all the rage, so of course I had to get it, but it turned out to be not your typical ombre. It had lots of high and low lights and was sooo pretty.

Pretty in Pink

I dyed my hair pink right after I quit one of my previous jobs. ‘Crazy’ hair colors wasn’t allowed in the workplace, so once I was no longer there, I decided to go get some color! So I went pink… it was pretty random. One downside with the color was that since I dyed it myself with box dye, the color started fading fast. I loved the color it started out with and faded into though!

What has been your favorite look so far?

My favorite hair style is a tie between my short pink hair and my shoulder length hair. But I really liked my shoulder length… it;s short enough and long enough at the same time. Perfect length.

My Routine

Tell us a bit about your hair routine.

My hair routine changes depending on what length and color my hair is. Right now it’s short, so I normally have to wet or wash my hair every other day just to style. Plus I always forget to wrap it at night, lol.

What products can’t you live without?

Got2b Defiant Shine pomade and TRESemme Flawless Curls mousse.
