For Alexis’s latest cut we went back to butterfly framing but started it at your grown out bang, higher than the first time, which gave a more tiered, waterfall-like effect. Such a fun and flirty look for summer! Book with me at theupperhandriveroaks

Thank you always to the incredible Chess its.c.mac for their trust in my and my art. I brought them back to their firey color palette this time and tried out the up and coming new trend of reptile bleaching, though I will confess I did use foils so im not sure it counts. So much fun having them in my chair and trying new things!
