This may not be something you think about when making an appointment at a hair salon, but I have found that taking a little extra time to properly prepare your curly hair can lead to better results.

Come with an open mind, ready to love and accept your hair in it's natural glory!

​

Deva and curly cut at-home required preparation:

​

Cleanse, condition and style your hair (with products) on the day of your appointment.

​

 1) Detox and exfoliate: at least 1 week before your appointment, detox and clarify your hair if you use any products with silicone, butters or oils in them

2) Condition: the conditioners I recommend are Deva Curl One Conditioner or any of the InnerSense conditioners. But like the shampoo, any conditioner that doesn't contain oils, butters or silicones will work.

3) Style: (VERY IMPORTANT) your curls should be defined as possible using water-based products. Please do not use bobby pins, head wraps, ponytails, headbands, hats, clips, etc on the day of your appointment. I need to see your natural curl pattern and how your hair falls in order to perform the cut properly and give you the best service.

​

Failure to follow these guidelines may results in a $75 service charge, as I may need to properly prepare your hair for the service. If there is no time to do so, your appointment may need to be rescheduled.

I appreciate you taking the time to review how to prepare for your appointment. It really makes a difference. Thank you for having me as your curl specialist, and I hope to see you soon!
