Anyone who knows me, knows I love my redheads. Many were born more strawberry blonde and nature made it darker and drabber. I love to enhance and restore the tones of their youth.if I think for a second it will look good on you, I always suggest it. Don’t get me wrong, I love creating all shades but to me, there’s something boutique like about redheads. It’s unique and special. Here, Joanne indulges my passion. Her husband is pretty smitten too! (Bonus!) I’ve also been playing in a shorter shape for her this spring which she is loving. There’s no better feeling than a happy client. . . . . #hairstyles #haircolor #haircut #hairtransformation #hairstyle #hairideas #hairlove #hairlife #color #colorandhighlights #coloredhair #redhead #redhair #redhairdontcare #redheads #highlights #highlight #highlightedhair #lovemyreds #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO51wqjDmqR/?igshid=nhercms760e6

I feel like my friend Faith is always in motion so, I felt that her hair should be too! Here, I created lots of movement in the hair cut itself and soft highlights and lowlights for added texture and movement. . . . . #hair #hairstyles #haircolor #haircut #hairtransformation #hairstyle #hairgoals #hairfashion #hairfashion #hairoftheday #hairporn #hairlife #foil #foilingtechnique #foils #hilights #highlights #highlightsandlowlights #blondehighlights #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNojwHbDYX4/?igshid=acdd0ysvxt0

So more curl embracing going on her on Debra’s hair. I touched up her “pigmentationaly challenged” hair and dried up with a diffuser to creat this beautiful look for her. She has never had her hair dried curly by a professional and was shocked at how pretty her hair could be curly. I shared some tips and tricks to keep the frizz out and used @ouidad hydrafusion intense curl creme for weight definition and a little help falling into a curl. She has worn her hair straight for years so, the hair needed a little help to learn what I wanted. We love the result. How about you? . . . . . #longhair #longdarkhair #longcurlyhair #longcurlyhairdontcare #curlyhair #curlyhairstyles #curly #curlygirl #curlyhairdontcare #darkcurlyhair #healthyhair #shinyhair #darkhair #brunette #brunettehair #gorgeous #gorgeoushair #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJBwlevjNHA/?igshid=1ncmxh9wz95u9

For years we fought the humid south. And for years, we lost. The frizz won. No matter what I tried or how hard I worked, Lorraine’s hair would literally frizz up right before my eyes in the parking lot heading to the car. It never occurred to me that she would ever embrace her natural curl so, I never suggested it. One of the freedoms of being in lockdown is we’re all trying new things. New looks. Embracing what God gave us. So, she suggested we grow out the color and embrace the curl. I jumped on the opportunity because I knew how pretty her curl could be. And maybe, just maybe I could loose the frizz! Her curl is glorious. Even better than I imagined. I used Ouidad Hydrafusion intense curl creme @ouidad and HairpHix gentle cleanser and moisture maintain conditioner pulse deep leave in treatment always. #oneveryone @hairphixhaircare She now brings her sweet Momma Betty in for a family haircut session.

Susan wanted to embrace her natural silver threads after Covid. She has this perfect natural streak in the front so, I highlighted her hair and toned it using Shades EQ to whiten it up. We are loving her results! . . . . #makeover #hairmakeover #embracethegrey #embraceyourself #embracethejourney #gray #grayhair #grayhairgoals #naturalbeauty #hair #haircolor #haircolormakeover #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGXgBogjONI/?igshid=bdoefybxdmd3

Sometimes a woman just needs some blue in her hair. Not for political reasons, just because! So fun! . . . . #bluehairdontcare #bluehair #blue #highlights #bluehighlights #fun #funhair #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFwxxkkDCXo/?igshid=1316ln21vvsyh

Judy’s trying something new. More of a bob feeling and longer on top for a more casual feel. . . . . #bobhaircut #blondehair #blond #haircut #haircuts #hair #haircolor #foils #wellahair #wella #wellaprofessional #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD9hhVnDOo6/?igshid=aplt3vxcnhyy

Pinch hitting for a stylist friend, this beauty was feeling as “wooly” as a sheep after Covid and and her very pregnant stylist left her temporarily in the lurch. I took her hair from wild to cute and stylish in minutes. I love a #pixiecut for her don’t you? Her nursing background had as giggling like schoolgirls about the way some people wear masks. I loved the opportunity to help friends, both new and old. Thank Judy for the laughs and friendship. I’m happy to help when you’re in need. #pixie #haircut #feelingwooly #naturalhair #curlyhair #thickhair #greathair #greathairdontcare #hair #haircut #gray #grayhair #gelsaloninc https://www.instagram.com/p/CCR12qkDTtp/?igshid=14ze3qulkhsmt

I did a foilayage on Madeline today. Her natural color is already stunning so, I just want a few hits of soft highlights to add a bit more dimension. It will have a very natural grow out which is perfect for college. Such a lovely human. #foilayage #moneypiece #virginhair #naturalcolor #beautiful #beautifulhair #beautifulhuman #gelsaloninc (at Gel Salon Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBSGzwKDMmu/?igshid=11eh74exhkurr
