As a hairstylist of 19 years I’ve heard it all. I find myself always wanting to share the stories I’ve heard but I know some of them aren’t my stories to tell. Some are hilarious, some are soul touching and some.. just absolutely crazy. Sit back while I let you get behind the chair with me. It’s time for hairapy.
