what to wear

 

Hello!

Wondering what to wear to your hair appointment? Choose comfortable clothes that won’t interfere with your stylist’s work. Opt for a loose-fitting top, avoid heavy jewelry, and consider wearing a button-up or something easy to take off. Ensure your outfit keeps you relaxed and stylish during your visit!
Below are a few clothing options I recommend to ensure you get the best possible result from your service. I want to make sure your haircut is symmetrical, your color looks amazing, and your clothing stays safe from any potential mess.
As you read the info below, you might be thinking, “Wow, she’s repeating herself a lot!” But believe it or not, in my 16 years of doing hair, this is something I find myself saying almost every day! So, whether you're a seasoned salon-goer or it’s your first time, here’s a little reminder (or heads-up) on what can make your experience smoother and stress-free.

T-shirt
A classic T-shirt is always my top recommendation for your hair service. It doesn’t matter if it's a V-neck, crew neck, boat neck, or U-shape—whatever you feel comfy in! A simple T-shirt works great because there's no collar to get in the way of your new hairstyle, and it won’t be at risk of getting damaged by color.

Crew Neck Sweatshirt/Jumper
If it’s chilly and you want to stay cozy during your appointment, a crew neck sweatshirt or jumper is a perfect choice! Again, no collar to interfere with your service.

Zip-up Hoodie (with an undershirt)
You might be surprised by how many people forget to wear an undershirt with their hoodie or zip-up, but please, do me a favor and throw one on! It helps me make sure I can get your haircut as precise as possible.

Looking forward to seeing you at your appointment!

Your favorite hairstylist

2025 HAIR MOOD BOARD

2025 Mood Board

Here’s my mood board for 2025—though I might switch it up halfway through the year! Below the photo, I’ll explain each category and what I love about it.

This mood board is mainly for my clients with straight, fine hair, but it’s definitely not limited to just that. If you feel like your hair type isn’t represented, don’t worry—many of these looks can be adapted for all hair types!

Perms

Perms are finally getting some attention here in Minnesota! I’ve been perfecting my perming skills for two years now, waiting for people to ask for them—and now it’s happening! There are two types of perms: Cold Wave and Digital Perm. Both give you soft waves, but they’re done a little differently. Digital perms work best on hair that's longer than chin-length.

Mid-Length Styles

Mid-length hair is the trend for 2025 and will probably stay popular all year. A lot of clients who’ve had layered hair are now ready for a change—something shorter and fresher as they head into their next hair growth phase.

Shorter Styles

Short hair is for everyone! Whether you’re growing your hair out or just ready for a shorter cut, this look is great for both men and women. If you’ve got curly or wavy hair, a perm on a short style is a perfect match. Many of these short styles are trending with male clients—especially those who go for a low fade with a heavier top. This has been super popular with clients ages 17–22.

Layered Styles

There are two main types of layered cuts: long and short layers. Depending on the vibe you’re going for, you can pick either. Long layers usually start below the shoulders, while shorter layers begin above the shoulders.

Color Trends

More clients are going for light brown and cherry cola colors—perfect for brunettes who want something low-maintenance. For those who want a little more pop, visible highlights are trending for both blondes and brunettes. This style is huge in Korea and Japan right now, as well as in the street style scene, where mixing textures and colors creates a fun, bold look
