About

I trained and worked as a hairstylist in Russia before moving to Florida
in 2015. Balayage and keratin smoothing are what I do most, and what I enjoy most —
the slow, technical colour work that needs patience rather than speed.

I work from a home salon in Boca Raton, one client at a time. That is deliberate.
A balayage done properly takes several hours, and I would rather give the time than
hurry someone out of the chair. There is coffee, there is no queue, and there is no
music you did not choose.

The kittens

Three years ago we brought home our first Scottish Fold. My children grew up around
her, and what started as one cat became something we do carefully and deliberately.
Our kittens are raised in the house rather than in a separate room — underfoot,
handled daily, used to noise and visitors and other animals by the time they leave.

They are health checked before rehoming, and I would always rather someone visited
first and changed their mind than took a kitten home on an impulse.

Products

I keep the products I actually use and recommend — not a catalogue, just what
works on the hair I see. Most clients pick theirs up at an appointment.
