I've been doing hair for 4 years and joined Shine in the Heights in November 2023, after graduating from Paul Mitchell the School Houston. It started during the 2020 lockdown, practicing updos on my niece while she lived with me. Seeing her face light up in the mirror showed me what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I love haircutting, especially bixies, long layers, bangs and shags, plus lived-in balayage. I can't work without Kérastase Genesis Thermique, my shears, my blow dryer and my feather razor. My consultation covers the service you booked, your inspiration photos, your hair history, maintenance, budget, timing and any product allergies. Outside the salon I read, play video games, spend time with family and explore Houston. At work it's indie, dad rock or yacht rock radio.
