  • How should I prepare for my appointment?
    Please come to your appointment with freshly cleaned and dry hair. For Bridal, you will need to have freshly cleaned and dry hair. If you have natural curls, you will need to blow out your hair if you do not want to use your natural curls for your desired look.

    How do I save the date? A $100 retainer is required at booking. The booking / travel fee is non-refundable and non transferable, is to be paid after quote is sent and contracted services are agreed upon. This fee covers holding your date, milage to and from on site location within 15 miles from Target on Delaware Ave, as well as set up/clean up on the wedding date. Every addtional mile will be $2 a mile. The remaining balance will be invoiced to the email you provide and due 30 days before your wedding date. Full Day Service!! I will perform any touch ups needed before leaving the venue. However, if you wish to have me stay past completed services, for additional touch ups or a second style, the payment options are before. $40 an hour for additional services throughout the ceremony. $135 for an additional second style following after the ceremony.

    Aftercare Instructions After you have finished your appointment and are ready to relax, make sure to hairspray any fly aways down and either use a silk bonnet or silk pillow case at bedtime! Can I get my braids wet? For feed ins, I advise not to get your braids wet as they will get weighted down from the artificial hair and may fall out and not last as long as you would like them too! This goes for normal braid appointments too ◡̈ Shimmers can get wet! Can I use my own extensions? Yes of course! I will install them and braid them right into your natural hair! **Additional charge $30
  • Shimmers
    How long do shimmers last? Shimmers normally stay in anywhere from 2 weeks to a couple months! It all depends on your type of hair. For thin hair, shimmers tend to fall out faster. For thick course hair, shimmers tend to stay a little longer ◡̈ Can I dye my hair while the shimmers are in? Yes! Shimmers are 100% silk, they will not change color or damage the hair. Aftercare Instructions - also refer to your shimmer guide After the first 24 hours, it is normal to lose anywhere from 5-8 shimmers! Avoid brushing from the root, try brushing from the bottom of your hair to the top. Can I use hot tools while I have shimmers? Yes! Shimmers are 100% silk, so you can style them just like your natural hair.
