New client 💚 She found me through a pixie post, felt something, and booked — then trusted me with her thick curly length and we went for it. One cut turned into two because getting it *exactly* right matters more than getting it done fast. That's the power of showing up as yourself online. The right clients find you, trust the process, and leave with a pixie that was *made* for them. This is my favorite part of the job.

To the stylists who aren't comfortable with pixies and short cuts — please just be honest with your clients. ✂️

They would so much rather hear "that's not my specialty, let me refer you to someone who can" than leave your chair with a cut they have to grow out for months before it can be fixed.

I corrected 3 pixies last week alone. Short hair is my passion, so if it's not yours — refer out. It's not a weakness, it's professionalism. 🤍

With all the black bear sightings lately, people keep posting bears wandering into their homes and businesses… meanwhile ours has been hanging out at Ink & Dye this whole time.

He’s mostly harmless. A little nosey during appointments. Occasionally stares too long. Terrible conversationalist.

At this point he’s basically part of the staff.

Walk-In Wednesday is back this week ✨

This Wednesday from 10AM–4PM, our apprentice Jax will be taking walk-ins for the flash posted below — all designs are $50.
First come, first served. No holds, no appointments. Just pick from the flash and get tattooed. 🖤

Thad will also be doing his regular walk-ins that day as usual, but the $50 flash special is specifically with Jax as part of their apprenticeship.

Come hang out, get something fun, and support an up-and-coming artist.

All inclusive means all inclusive.

Sometimes that looks like closing the curtains, covering the windows, and making sure my clients have the privacy they need to feel comfortable and respected—especially for my clients who wear hijabs and choose not to show their hair in public.

You won’t see photos of the beautiful work I do for my Muslim clients—and that’s intentional. Their privacy matters more than content. But trust me… they walk out feeling amazing under their hijabs.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and taken care of in my chair. Always.
