Another wedding in the books. It was such an honor to be there for @themrsjnp4 and Josh’s wedding weekend. Amy and I’s friendship began 14 years ago when we met as Phi Mu’s at Oklahoma State. I was so excited to be part of her day.

We had such a great time this weekend in Tulsa for the Pickle wedding! It was so great to catch up with college friends and spend time with family. @themrsjnp4 thank you for giving me the pleasure of glamming you on your special day!

Talk about a full circle moment! 14 years ago this girl was applying at home bleach to my hair in the bedroom of our sorority house! 14 years later I am getting to watch her journey through cosmetology school! It was an honor and privilege to do @megncarson and her mamas hair and makeup for her big day.

Fall wedding season is in full swing and it has been so much fun. I am especially thankful to my client @anna.saum for introducing me to her beautiful family, which allowed me the opportunity to be part of @ameliamhiller and Austin’s big day. It was truly a pleasure!

Who says you have to go dark in the fall!

Facebook memories for the win. 10 years ago today was my fIrst day of COSMETOLOGY school. I had just moved 400+ miles from home, my fanily, and friends. I was scared, nervous, and excited. What if I wasn’t any good, what if I didn’t make any friends, what if that boy I just started dating and moved here with broke up with me or it didn’t work out. I was homesick and thinking I had made a huge mistake just weeks before this day. I was ready to pack it up and head back to Oklahoma. Then John said give it a chance, wait until you start school. You will make friends and you will be doing hair, like you’ve always wanted to do, and then see how you feel. Man was he right! The moment I started school with this awesome group of people I knew this was where I was meant to be. 10 years later me and that boy I had barely started dating are about to celebrate 2 years of marriage and over 10 years together. 10 years later I am almost a year and a half into being a salon owner. It wasn’t always easy and there more so many times I wanted to quit! I have missed my family more days then I can count. But I know that I wouldn’t have achieved all the things I did in this 10 short years if I didn’t take a chance and get out there and grow!

New update regarding our Covid Policy-
We have come to the hard decision to reinstate our mask policy due to the growing number of cases and the delta variant in our city. This is an unfortunate announcement to make but such an easy one that will undoubtedly keep us, our guests, and family and friends safe. We also ask, regardless of vaccine status, that if you have come into contact with someone who has tested positive or are exhibiting any symptoms at all, please reach out and we will do our best to accommodate you rescheduling your appointment. We would always rather be safe than sorry! We can’t thank each of you enough for riding this crazy roller coaster with us as we try to adapt to every new situation. We will keep everyone updated if anything else changes and we look forward to seeing you all soon!

From solid bleached out blonde (with 2” of natural dark roots) to rooted and dimensional! Reverse balayage has become one of my favorite color corrections to work on!

If your a nerd like me and like seeing color mapped out swipe right to see the detailed head sheet I made after doing @mdiliber hair on Friday!!

Thanks for trusting me with such a big change! ✨

365 days! That’s how many days it’s been since we walked in the doors of OUR salon to take our first clients as salon owners. I knew we would do great, but if you would’ve told me 365 days ago we would be where we are, I might’ve laughed. We have accomplished so many things in our first year in business — Austin Monthly’s Best of ATX is high on the list! I’m so thankful for every single person who has supported, encouraged, and lent a helping hand in making this dream a REALITY. Most importantly though, I am so thankful to all of our clients who are the real MVP’s and deserve all the credit for our success!!

@mane3hairstudio has some big news!!! “Y’all, we are absolutely speechless! We can not begin to put into words how much everyone’s support has meant to us! Everyone who voted, had their friends vote, or their family vote has supported us in ways you’ll never know!

You’ve helped secure our place in the Austin beauty industry and we can’t thank y’all enough!

I’ve got some big news!! I have recently joined the @Beautycounter family and I am so excited to share a whole new world of clean skincare with you all! I started this year with the goal to get serious about my skincare. In February a client of mine introduced me to BeautyCounter and I am hooked. I joined Beautycounter because I love that not only do the products work but they are free of synthetic fragrance and toxic ingredients. Which is so hard to find nowadays. Please reach out if you have any questions or would like more info about what Beautycounter has to offer! I am so excited for my journey of clean skincare and would love to introduce you all to the amazing benefits as well!

Wedding season is upon us and I couldn’t be more excited! One of the biggest questions I get from brides is should I get extensions for my wedding? Of course it’s your big day and after all you want your hair to look its best. However, what happens after the big day when you don’t want the upkeep of extensions? If you are a bride and considering extensions for you big day I recommend getting a @hairtalkusa hairband. Or if you aren’t a bride and are just looking for a way to try extensions the most low maintenance way! I have two clients picking theirs up this week! Stay tuned for the results!

Woke up in beautiful Colorado this morning. JK still in Texas.

Woke up in beautiful Colorado this morning. JK still in Texas.

And that’s a WRAP!! 🎄🎄🎄Yesterday was my last day of work for 2020! I wish more than anything we were headed north on I-35 to visit with family but holidays are looking a little different for us (and everyone) this year!

Just want to say THANK YOU to all of my amazing clients who have made this 2020 journey a HUGE success! I wouldn’t be where I am in my career without all of your support, words of encouragement, and loyalty!

I hope you all find a way to make this holiday season special! MERRY CHRISTMAS from my family to yours! I will see you all in the new year! 🤗🤗🤗

When your best friend is serious low maintenance hair goals! We also gave her a big bold money piece! So stay tuned if you wanna see the other angles!

Rooted dimensional color has been one of my favorite things to do lately. The most important thing with blondes who want to have depth is keeping them bright on their ends and around the face!

Happy National Dog day to these two turds 😜 they fight like crazy but they cuddle even harder. Not sure what we would do without their snorting, stinky buts, and gremlin smiles. @ Austin, Texas

Loving this multi dimensional blonde on @allieparrish7. Her only instruction for me was she is very low maintenance and wants something that grows out soft! From there she let me take the wheel!

Foilage and a full set of 17” @hairtalkusa extensions!! I am absolutely drooling over this color!! We used petites and minis in colors 24 and 20!

Covid brought a lot of things and with it was a few weeks of downtime. With this time I was able to participate in online classes and tutorials from artist who were unable to travel and teach in person. I have enjoyed applying these newly learned techniques behind the chair now that I am fortunate enough to be back at work. This look was achieved using the @romeufelipe #brazillianilluminage technique. Thank you to @caitlin_shick for trusting me to transform your hair!!

Challenge accepted! @jchapmanstylist #womensupportingwomen #strongertogether

All of us ladies at Mane 3 wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to all of our amazing clients, we truly couldn’t have done any of this without y’all! Thank you for all of your support at our new home and for being so easy going with our new policies and procedures. Thank you for wanting to help build our business by referring all of your friends and family and telling everyone you know about our salon. Thank you for being patient as we navigate through being new business owners and always lending a shoulder to lean on or giving us advice. Thank you for always making us laugh and for being excited to see the new changes we’ve made from the last time you were in (you really know how to make a girl feel like a rockstar). Most importantly, thank you for just being here and showing up for us. Your years of friendship means the world to us and we wanted to make sure y’all know how thankful and grateful we are for that. @ Mane 3 hair Studio
