Some of y’all have been asking and here it is, the annual holiday minis announcement is here!

We are keeping simple and honest this year since 🫂
Some of you already know how fond we are of CASA Pinellas and the great work they do, and this why we decided that a portion of each booked session will be donated to them.

$300 | 30 Mins | 30 Digital Photos … some film might be included ❤️

This is Anthony.

He’s been in the shop putting in the work, getting to know our clients, and quietly building his chair.

And while he’s still building, the standard hasn’t changed.

Actually, we give his appointments a little more time on purpose — because nobody here should feel rushed, and nothing should leave the chair before it’s ready.

His pricing is a little lower than mine right now, but the expectation is the same:

Thoughtful work.
A calm appointment.
Attention to the details.

Because a good haircut doesn’t need to feel rushed.

Anthony’s book is open.

An open letter to Jess and Jaison’s people -

You guys really struck the friendship lottery with these two. Every friend group needs that person they can get a hug from whenever one’s needed. Or maybe a house with an open door that feels like a safe place when the world feels out of control. Maybe it’s just an ear that listens and a heart that genuinely cares.

If you could bottle up the warmth of the sun and imbue it into a couple, it would be Jess and Jaison. And for all these reasons and more, consider myself jealous that you have an ally like this in your life. It’s rare.

As someone on the outside who had a just a single day to drop in and spend time with you, thank you for letting be one of the pack, I felt like an old friend from the very first minute. From the deep talks to the lolz, each of you are some of the best humanity has and the light you all reflect toward each other isn’t something often seen.

Some people find their people. Jess and Jaison found theirs twice over, once in each other, and once in all of you.

Lucky them. Lucky us.

I tend to overshare, so me starting hair school, specifically barbering, I kept it kind of quiet and only shared this journey with a few… it’s been a joyful ride so far, I’ve met the NICEST humans at school and when I think of me finishing in less than 3 months it makes me sad to think I won’t see them daily… but also every time someone graduates it makes me so happy and proud for them and I just think I’ll be there too very soon 🫂😭✨

I’m just gonna be giving the biggest shoutouts to @jai_parry @mathewharlan @nelson.create for the encouragement and support, y’all keep me humble 🥹

@figtreebeauty thank you thank you for all the color theory and layering classes but mostly for letting me get on your nerves on a daily basis 🤣🫂

St Pete we love you.

Our first Cake Picnic Party was a success, we weren’t expecting so many to show up and you guys did, we raised $750 to help our friends from @casapinellas

Jai, Madi, Tessa and I are forever thankful to everyone of you that showed up ❤️, helped with organizing and providing supplies and just came over to be part of this.

And for all of you that are asking when are we doing this again, stay tuned! We will host another Cake Picnic Party this year 🤗

Jess & Jai.
