Surprise! 🙊

We are expecting our first baby in Aug 2023. This is the reason my bookings have been closed for 2023.

PCOS - something I’ve been aware I had for over 4 years. It began with irregular periods and after ultrasounds and other scans, I was diagnosed with PCOS. When we started talking about having kids, it became so hard to see all the pregnancy announcements, so I want to have this disclaimer for those who are going through that right now. There is hope. I was always so scared that we would never experience becoming parents because we were told how hard our journey may be, but I’m sooo incredibly grateful to God for our little miracle ♥️👶🏻

Oh baby! So excited this mama! What an honour to be part of a high school friend’s big milestone! Before this day, I saw her over 10 years ago. Oh how time flies..

Obsessed with ponytails 😍

We went with a mid pony rather than a low pony for her wedding day. I love how classy ponies can be but still have a more relaxed vibe. Can’t wait for wedding photos from @natekimphoto !

The outcome of this hairstyle depends on your hair texture! It will look slightly different on each person. But, ughh I love how hairstyles look on blonde hair 😍

Keeping it nice and natural for this sister of the bride. In her own words, she didn’t know what she wanted, but it turned out to be exactly what she wanted 😉

For those who are on the fence about lashes, I always say get them for the photos! They make such a big difference which is why they’re included with all makeup services for 2023!

Got that GLOW going for this bride 🤍 we went with longer lashes than the trial and I am lovingggg them!

Also, how are we all feeling about Taylor Swift’s new album? I’m still undecided… if you enjoyed it, what’s your fave song?

A textured and “messy” half up, half down hairstyle for you!

It’s okay to change your hairstyle from your trial! Trust me. I did the same thing for my own wedding day. For my trial, I did an updo thinking it was the most classically bridal thing to do. As my wedding day approached, I realized I like some hair to frame my face so I changed my hairstyle to a half up half down.

When I say my fave thing about my side gig is that I get to make people feel beautiful but still feel like themselves, I mean it! Love this natural transformation with a textured bun.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, friends 🦃🍂🍁 There ar

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, friends 🦃🍂🍁

There are few things to keep in mind if you’re thinking about this look for your wedding day:

HAIR VOLUME - medium to thicker amount of hair is needed to achieve this look. Otherwise, hair extensions are needed to help your hair stay in place all day as well as help with frizz.

HAIR TEXTURE - similar to volume of hair, med to coarse hair is needed to achieve this hairstyle with its desired effects. Hair extensions will be needed if your hair is too thin as it will not hold this style all day long

HUMIDITY - the humidity can also affect how your hair reacts throughout the day. Typically, a lower humidity day means this hairstyle will last all day with minimal frizz!

Random fact: I’ve used an entire can of @schwarzkopfcan hairspray in one sitting because of this hairstyle but the end result is sooo worth it.

Also, if you didn’t already know, my 2023 schedule is finally open. I am currently only taking Saturday weddings at the moment for my own mental health and personal life. Thanks for understanding! I’ll be sure to keep you all updated if anything changes 😊

Many of my clients always ask what my favourite hairstyle is to create. Lately, ponytails are probably my fave… because how could you love ponytails?! 😍

Side note: you need to have enough hair and length to create this look! Otherwise, you will need extensions to create this!

We switched to individual lashes for her wedding day so she doesn’t have to worry about them being uncomfortable!

She also had such flawless skin so we just enhanced her natural beauty 🤍
