How To Create Hollywood Glam Curls In 5 Steps

 

Hello dolls! (As Jo would say )

My name is Jacey and I’m a hair stylist in the great city of Austin, Texas! I first met Jo about six months ago and felt instantly connected to her. Her positive energy, self-confidence, and compassion was so inspiring to me. I was raised in a small town by the name of Gothenburg, Nebraska. I get asked this question a lot, “How did a small-town girl from Nebraska end up in Austin, Texas?” Ever since I was a little girl, I had big dreams of moving somewhere where I could experience something new and meet a variety of people.  I had a fantastic childhood and feel blessed to have grown up on a farm with animals and a loving, supportive family. I played sports my entire life but always loved fashion, hair, and make up. While I played volleyball my freshman year of college, I chose to close that chapter of my life and decided to go to cosmetology school. I had gone through stages of insecurity and self destruction during my early adulthood where I kept hitting obstacles that were leading me down the wrong path.

Though I didn’t know a single soul in Texas, I just felt there were opportunities here that would help open bigger doors to my career and I had to take a leap of faith. I moved to Austin by myself at 22 years old and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. With patience and determination, I found my home at Level 12 Salon. My co- workers are like family to me and we work as a team. I get to learn from the best in the industry while continuing to grow as a person. For those who don’t know, Austin has become the new “melting pot” in America. I have clients from California, New York City, the Bronx, Canada, Russia, West Virginia, Chicago, Nashville, and the list goes on. I get many new clients to the salon every week and I’m always eager to get to know them on a personal level.

I truly have a passion for the art of doing hair, learning something new every day, and interacting with my clients as they share their stories. As a stylist, there’s something so empowering about making women feel amazing about themselves while building a foundation of trust and friendship. I believe Jo and I knew we both had that in common and instantly connected!

I typically see Jo a few times a month when she’s home from traveling or not busy running the world with her blog PeaceLoveGlam! Here’s a little inside on what steps and products I use for styling her gorgeous hair:

  1. I start off by cleansing her hair using Unite Lazer straight shampoo and conditioner. Sometimes I love to use Olaplex Number 3 mask to help seal her bonds for that shiny, healthy feel.
  2. After I towel dry her hair, I apply Unite Lazer Straight Relaxing Fluid and Kevin Murphy Smoothing Cream so that her hair will blow dry nice and smooth.
  3. Once it’s completely dry, I section her hair in three different parts to prep for curling. I always use Unite Glossing Spray to help protect her hair from the hot iron but also give that amazing shine. I can’t live without it!
  4. Once I pin curl her hair using half inch sections, I let it sit for a couple minutes and lightly hair spray the entire head.
  5. I gently take out the clips and run my fingers through her curls then I take my Wet Brush and smooth out the ends. To complete this look, I always use Kevin Murphy shine mist for that extra pop!

Cheers to the Glam Hair,

 

Jacey
