I am SO thrilled to be collaborating with @shineco

I am SO thrilled to be collaborating with @shinecosmetics to help introduce the new, highly anticipated, beautifully warm-brown Fiber Brow shade, LIMITLESS, to Shine’s better than ever Fiber Brow line!✨
I’ve been able to help formulate the perfect rich, medium-to-dark, brown shade that I feel like so many of us were missing! (link in bio - use code: HOFS for a discount!)
The name that I finally selected for this color says it all - LIMITLESS! Because it pairs amazingly with lots of different skin tones and hair shades - auburn, red, deep golden blondes, and of course bold brunettes!
I can’t wait for you to try it, especially with Shine’s newly redesigned mini precision spoolie tip! Not only does it now allow you to have more control over how much or how little product you use, but it also makes detailed application a breeze! ♡♡♡

I just love this sweet 7th grade kiddo so much!♥

I just love this sweet 7th grade kiddo so much!♥︎♥︎♥︎
I’ve gotten lots of questions about this brown-haired babe and what shade we colored her hair - so I thought I’d post the formula here that I used on her, for fellow hairdressers and those interested who have asked!
★Redken Color Gels 2oz 5NW + 1oz 7NW with equal parts (3oz) 10 volume developer★
And yes, I’ve tried using just 6NW, but the color isn’t nearly as rich as when I mix the 5NW & 7NW formula. This formulation fades into a lighter warm, golden brown on Aubrielle, and we color it about every 6-8 weeks. Hopefully this helps!

SO many feelings and emotions as they start the ‘20-‘21 school year... but I’ll just leave you with this:
No matter what nationality, race, religion, political party, social standing, city, state or country we’re in - WE ALL have something in common as Mothers right now. We desperately want our kids to stay HEALTHY, be SAFE and gain the BEST EDUCATION possible.
The End.
Today I asked my girls to say hello to someone new, and to smile, even if people can’t actually see it.

You Mommas are freaking AMAZING. I love you, and no matter what your situation is with your children this school year, I want you to know that I love and support you. 💗💗💗

I shared on stories today that I took these adorab

I shared on stories today that I took these adorable twinners to their new high school to get their ID pictures taken. It broke my heart to see how excited they were, only to know that more than likely, they won’t be experiencing their first, long-awaited year of high school, actually INSIDE school.
I wanted to put my thoughts here too, for parents like me who may find comfort in knowing that you and your child’s feelings are justified and valid right now - no matter what anyone says. 💗

Our kids are trying to deal with so many feelings and changes, just like us. I see the disappointment in their eyes when school gets delayed another week. I can feel their happy, excited energy drain from their bodies when I tell them we probably need to prepare for distance learning from home again. I hear tearful conversations between my girls at night, when discussing how much they miss school, sports, choir and mostly seeing their friends.
Lots of days they are SO strong, positive and fight back the tears... but other days, the crying fits happen without warning. Emotions are at an all-time high right now in our home. Disappointment, anger, frustration, boredom, anxiety about the future... it’s a lot for ANYONE - and our growing, hormonal children and teens are certainly no exception.
As a Mom, all I can do is justify and help them navigate their “feels”, show them HOW MUCH we have to be grateful for, serve others who are in more need than us right now, keep their perspective at a healthy view, love them, and reassure them that NOTHING lasts forever.
That being said... I am emotionally exhausted, unsure, anxious, mentally drained, angry and So. Freaking. Physically. Tired.
I know you guys have to be too. So please hear me when I say... HANG IN THERE. You are resilient, brave, patient, kind, nurturing, understanding - and your children are watching. They are looking to YOU for guidance. So don’t stop showing up. Keep trying. Give yourself some MUCH deserved grace, a big handful of your favorite treat... and know that you are doing amazing!!! And even if they can’t/won’t/don’t say so right now... your kids are SO PROUD and grateful for all you are doing.
