This week we have a very special guest, my new internet bestie, Cara DiBella. We’re talking about mental health and ADHD.

I know that ADHD has become pretty trendy recently and many of us creatives are realizing that we relate to a lot of the symptoms. I know for myself it’s been huge to know that I’m not the only one whose brain feels totally scattered and unfocused all the time.

I’m not shy to say I’ve had my fair share of mistakes… you know, like the BIGGEST hair mistake I ever made and how I handled it all wrong.

That being said, I’ve also learned a LOT. Like how to transform a client with natural brunette hair into a bright, blonde bombshell in a single session. Yup, you heard that right.

I’m walking you through step-by-step in this brunette foilyage tutorial so you can get stunning results that will WOW your clients and save you time and money.

I had been invited by Cosmoprof to come do a photoshoot at ISSE with their team. But there was one client that I couldn’t reschedule so I ended up not going at all. I will forever regret that decision because what happened with that one client ended up changing the course of my career.

I thought I was doing the right thing by staying behind and doing the client I couldn’t reschedule. It would’ve been unprofessional to cancel on her to go to a photoshoot, right?

I cried a lot. I was so embarrassed. I had prided myself on how good of a business owner I was. I had prided myself on how busy I was. Everyone was telling me how great I was doing and I lapped it up.

Needless to say, I’ve come a long way in men’s hair. And the last 7 years of my career I’ve focused on coloring and realized that’s my strength. In this tutorial I’m going to be showing you how to do balayage on men’s hair. I’ll be walking you through the exact toners I used and how to cut this surfer-California haircut on a very special client, my nephew.

Our journey as creative entrepreneurs has changed drastically (particularly over this past year). The pandemic made us realize that we need to create new habits or look at things differently because of how things have affected our careers.
