On my nightstand:<\/strong> iPhone Charger, Apple Watch charger, loose change, and a large bottle of water<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll cry if I\u2019m out of:<\/strong> At work, it would be Joico Stainless \u2014 this stuff is the best color remover for skin!!!!! At home \u2014 Shakeology, fresh fruit, and Joico Color Co+Wash<\/p>\n

What I\u2019m eating when no one\u2019s looking:<\/strong> Ice cream \u2014 specifically, butter pecan flavor. (With peanut butter sauce on top!)<\/p>\n

If any designer (or store) could dress me:<\/strong> AG, Peter Millar, H&M, Vince, Theory, Bally, and Burberry<\/p>\n

What\u2019s on my feet:<\/strong> I just made a huge investment of multiple Bally shoes<\/p>\n

Can\u2019t live without:<\/strong> TSA Precheck, wet brush., electric toothbrush, BeachBody programs, LumiShine Liquids, WiFi, Panadol, Beauty Bio Bright Eyes Eye Patches.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]My influencers:<\/strong> Gianni Scumaci, Angelo Seminara, Mio Soto, Mark Leeson, Mazella & Palmer, Ben Mollin, John Rawson.<\/p>\n

Guiltiest pleasure:<\/strong> Shopping for shoes that I don\u2019t need! All of my shoes are a bit over the top at the moment. Can someone find me some great basic shoes?! There\u2019s not a lot about me that is basic\u2026<\/p>\n

Biggest misconception about hairdressers:<\/strong> That we ONLY do hair. We have so many hats that we wear: having to be a therapist, entertainer, personal errand runner, coffee maker, babysitter, etc. And then on top of it, we still have to do AWESOME hair! So we not only have to be good at our main job, but bring a LOT more to the table that some people may not realize.<\/p>\n

Why hair?<\/strong> Originally, I went to school to become a cook. I HATED IT! I didn\u2019t like tasting things I wasn\u2019t familiar with, hated getting my hands dirty, and I tend to get hot easily\u2026so being in a kitchen all day wasn\u2019t for me. In high school, I had been exposed to a Cosmo program, and had done pretty well at it; but I wasn\u2019t sure if it was right, either. After high school, I decided to give hair another try and went through schooling for it; it clicked and came so naturally to me! Flash forward 17 years later, and here we are.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”15690″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]What I\u2019m known best for:<\/strong> Being honest, when asked for it. Not sugarcoating things. Constantly traveling. Haircolor. Haircutting.<\/p>\n

Oddest job:<\/strong> Working as a 411 operator for landline telephones!<\/p>\n

If not hair:<\/strong> Dream job would be photographer. Something about it has always held my fascination.<\/p>\n

The hair I never want to see again:<\/strong> The \u201cKate Gosselin\u201d haircut \u2014 YIKES!<\/p>\n

This hairstyle\/color will never bore me:<\/strong> Euro mullets. Fantasy colors. Precision bobs.<\/p>\n

Best advice ever:<\/strong> If you don\u2019t take care of yourself first, who will?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”15691″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]\u201cI\u2019ve made it\u201d moment:<\/strong> 2012 NAHA. It was beyond belief that I was a finalist in hair color, shot by Damien Carney. Being at the event was a spectacle \u2014 but then winning it was just mind blowing. It made me realize that my skill is better than I\u2019d ever thought it was, and that what others think it is worthy of a trophy. The recognition is great, but the confidence it gave me \u2014 and the ability to not always second guess myself and try things I wouldn\u2019t normally \u2014 was the true reward.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s playing in my salon:<\/strong> Something on Pandora \u2014 it\u2019s on shuffle, so I never know what genre or song will be up next!<\/p>\n

Tool\/product I\u2019m always reaching for:<\/strong> Joico Body Shake<\/a>. Olivia Garden brushes. YS Park combs. Joico narrow tint brushes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
