The earliest evidence of people attempting to augment their own hair (via Artificial hair integrations) to change either the appearance or texture date back thousands of years to the very first traces of modern humans in the global record, well before written historic records were kept. During these early times natural substances could be used to color, texturize or change the appearance of natural hair. An example being simply placing oiled, heated, stretched and sometimes roped straw in the hair to give a lengthy appearance and perhaps even a fragrance enhanchment.
At some point these cosmetic changes and techniques became more widespread and multiple variations of techniques evolved into what we now know as Wigs, Hair Pieces, Extensions and the sciences involved with Hair Replacement. The modern reference term "Hair Extensions" (also commonly referred to as "Weaving" in the public lexicon) refers to methods use to add cosmetic length and fullness (thickness) so as to enhance appearances. There are many, many reasons to do this and a lot of the "reasons besides appearances" are covered under the term of "Tricology". I have trained in Tricology with over 2000 hours and 30+ years of advanced experience including that which is involved with being a licensed Cosmetologist in several states during that time.
The methods I use to apply extensions range from all of the popular and industry standard methods to my own proprietary system which is only attributable to the students who I have trained to perform this method and myself. Based on decades of professional exposure and experience I am capable of handling all methods and therefore feel comfortable with all hair related services not just those related to hair extensions. I choose however to focus my energy on extensions as that is my passion and has been. Additionally I myself have been wearing my own extensions for over 25 years as I like to be my own example. Many people say you can't trust a skinny Chef, well I say you can't trust an extensions specialist who doesn't wear them.
The process with me is simple enough and it always starts with a live consultation. I can not help you if I do not see your hair and also learn from you directly what you want or what you desire as an end result. There are many things involved so our initial call is usually focused on meeting you and setting up your consultation. I like to hear what you are looking for before I start talking, lol. Once we have agreed on what will be done and how it will be done we can move one to the fun part, which is of course, you getting the hair of your dreams and me feeling very happy to help you.
Of course there are many other services that can contribute to what we can accomplish and things like Hair Color (Ombre / Sombre / Balayage / Corrective Color / Hair Cuts / Hair Styling etc), Wedding Up-Do's and Bridal Makeup are no problem as I am a seasoned professional and everything you see on my website is my actual work on my actual clients. I can help you look your best just like I did with them. My clients are regular people from everywhere ranging from other stylist to entertainers to celebrities and everyone in between, they just happen to look like pro models if I have done my work correctly, lol. You may have seen my work on television, film, online or in print so no need to get into all of that as it has nothing to do with what I can do for you. To find that out, you will need to book your appointment. I'm ready when you are.
If you want the hair and makeup of your dreams, just call me.
