From the time I was old enough to brush my own hair, I remember telling every friend and every family member, "Sit down so I can give you a makeover!" At the time, I never imagined that my future career would be something I have such a burning passion for.. making everyone look as beautiful as possible!
Hair styling was, in a way, my first love. I chose to start my career at only 20 years old. I have never looked back! For over a decade, I was blessed to have the opportunity to work next to the most talented, passionate and inspiration stylists this city has to offer. I was able to soak up valuable information, attend countless amazing classes, learn new trends and techniques, and eventually teach classes of my own! All this because of all the many wonderful friends and mentors I've met along the way. I took a step away from salon life after the birth of my second beautiful little girl. The most important job I will ever have in life is being a mother. As my girls grew, I began itching to be back in the salon and to be with the other most important people in my life; my clients! I can not possibly put into words how special it is to me to share life's highs and lows with my clients, the bonds we share are like no other. From kids starting school, graduations, marriages, babies, holidays, triumphs and, of course, life's most valuable experiences and lessons. I couldn't imagine my life without these friendships. In 2016, I was blessed to have the opportunity to open my own salon! I started my Hair Devotion family and I could not be more excited with what we've done and what we have yet to achieve! This community is one I am proud to be a part of. The people I have met are so warm and welcoming and I look forward to serving my community here in Bedford. |
