✨ Healthy extension hair starts with a healthy install. ✨

This before & after shows what I LOVE to see: a healthy grow-out with the natural hair still looking and feeling strong. 🤍

Extensions shouldn’t leave your hair feeling compromised. Proper sectioning, placement, tension, maintenance, and timing between appointments all matter when it comes to protecting your natural hair.

➡️ Before: healthy grow-out, ready for maintenance
➡️ After: fresh, clean install with beautiful movement and seamless blending

The goal isn’t just gorgeous hair on install day — it’s healthy natural hair throughout your entire extension journey. ✨

If you’re considering extensions and want to prioritize the health of your natural hair, let’s talk about the method and maintenance schedule that’s right for you.

Long layers + flirty fringe = the perfect little hair refresh without losing your length ✨

Soft movement, face-framing layers, and that flirty fringe that makes everything feel a little more effortless. 💕

It’s giving volume. It’s giving movement. It’s giving “I woke up like this” — but better. 😉

✨ Perfect for adding shape without sacrificing length
✨ Face-framing layers that highlight your features
✨ Fringe that can be styled soft, swoopy, or a little undone

If you’ve been wanting a change but aren’t ready to go short… this is your sign. 💇🏼‍♀️

A little reminder from your hairstylist 🤍

I’m so incredibly grateful for every single person who sits in my chair and trusts me with their hair. Truly. 🫶🏼

As a small business owner, my appointments are more than just a time slot on the calendar — they are time I’ve reserved specifically for YOU. When an appointment is cancelled or changed at the last minute, it can be very difficult to fill that spot with another guest.

That’s why I have a 30% cancellation/no-show fee for appointments cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice.

This policy isn’t meant to be punitive or make anyone feel bad. Life happens, and I completely understand that! It’s simply a way for me to protect my time, my business, and the availability I’m holding for each of you.

Thank you so much for understanding, respecting my policies, and supporting my small business. Every appointment, referral, review, and kind word means more than you know. 🤍

Thank you for being here and allowing me to do what I love every day. ✨

❤️Dori

📣PSA 📣

Yes, prices have gone up just like EVERYTHING else. What people DONT understand is we as independent contractors are responsible for all side expenses.

What we DONT get from an employer that most people working 9-5’s forget about:

- Health insurance/ Dental
- Paid vaca
- Maternity leave
- 401k or retirement
- Sick leave

Just to name a few

I also can say her “Newport girl” is probably way cheaper because she DOESNT have 20 years of experience like I do. That’s not said to be rude it’s facts. The fact she CANT tell her stylist who did the work that it wasn’t what she wanted is also a 🚩🚩

It’s 100% up to the stylist to make sure you’re happy and comfortable and if the client cant tell you that trust was broken somehow.

Please understand this isnt a “hobby” or for “fun” it is my livelihood like many others. Im fortunate to LOVE what I do and make a living out of it but telling people their worth or haggling their price is never OK nor tolerated.

Thank you to you everyone who gives people in the service industry the respect they deserve. We appreciate you all! 🙏❤️

The most satisfying part? Brushing it out. 🤌✨

A curl set isn’t meant to stay perfectly curled forever—the magic happens when you brush through those curls and turn them into soft, polished, dimensional movement.

✨ My finishing tip: I use Moroccanoil ULTRA-LIGHT Treatment to add that final touch of shine and smoothness without weighing the hair down.

Think of it as:
Set → Cool → Brush out → Polish → ✨WOW✨

And yes… that brush-out is VERY satisfying. 😍

Great review from Angelica... "Dori is the absolute best! I don’t trust anyone else with my hair. She has gone along with all my hair changes, honest with what colors can be done, and how to get me there. More importantly, she makes me feel so comfortable sitting in her chair. She’s down to earth, fun to work with, and talented."
