What if I told you
that you don’t have to choose between beautiful hair and protecting your health?
Once your eyes are opened, there’s no going back.
For many women, the journey into low-tox living begins with a wake-up call: sensitivities, burnout, hormone disruption, or simply realizing how much we’ve been exposed to without consent.
The last thing you want is for your hair routine to undo the healing work you’ve fought so hard for.
I work with women who care deeply about what they put on and around their bodies.
Read about my journey to Non-Toxic Living below.
"I realized I needed to change how I was consuming things, if I wanted to truly heal and become healthy..."
My Health Journey
My health journey didn’t start with a crisis. It started with awareness. After years of working long hours and living in hustle-culture, I realized I wasn’t taking care of myself, and if I wanted to be healthy, I needed to change how I was consuming things, if I was going to truly heal. I was busy at work and home, and barely keeping up. I realized I was not building a lifestyle that supported my long-term wellbeing. That realization was simple, but it changed everything. In 2018, I began making small adjustments. I cooked more at home, and became more mindful of what I was consuming. I slowed down enough to notice how my daily choices affected my energy and mood. What began as a few practical shifts, grew into a deeper commitment to living intentionally. Over time, I started asking questions — about food sources, ingredients, habits, and the bigger purpose for my life. In 2020, when the world slowed down, I amplified my learning and discovered a hidden passion. I learned more about local farms, quality sourcing, and the connection between physical health and spiritual health. My desire to have children one day, strengthened my commitment to making better choices. I wanted to ensure the healthiest foundation I could, out of responsibility and love for my future child. I explored all the avenues of health; cleaner products, organic food, movement, rest, therapy, prayer and time with God. At one point I tried to do it all, becoming so strict with all the "right" choices, and making sure to do everything perfectly, and discovered that stress can undermine the very health you’re trying to build. Now I live by an 80/20 rhythm, making intentional choices, but giving room for grace so I can still enjoy my life. My journey hasn’t been about perfection. It’s been about awareness. About choosing better, because I know better. About trusting that growth happens step by step, not all at once. So, at the end of the day, my advice is this: Change doesn’t have to start big. It just has to start. Be easy on yourself. Take it slow. Small, steady shifts can transform your entire life.
Why I use Non-Toxic Products
Did you know that artificial fragrance is an endocrine disruptor?
Did you know that your endocrine system is a network of glands and organs that regulate critical bodily functions, including metabolism, hormones, mood, growth, and homeostasis? Our bodies are being constantly bombarded by a number of different toxins we can't control, having a stylist that knows this and uses natural and non-toxic products that work, is now something you have access to. I am proud to use the highest quality, fragrance-free organic hair care products, and low-tox hair color that is free of ammonia and fragrance. Keeping our health a priority.
Non-Toxic Products I use
Some of my favorite products to use not only preform incredibly, but also are crafted with low-tox ingredients, that are safe for all.
Hairstory
Non-Toxic Hair Care
Hairstory was founded to give you fewer, better things for your hair: Products with fewer, better ingredients. Routines with fewer, better steps. And even schedules with fewer, better wash days.
I fell in love with New Wash, a first-of-its-kind cleansing cream made without the damaging detergents found in shampoo, made with nourishing, non-toxic ingredients. Their commitment to clean formulas that promote total hair and scalp wellness, makes their styling products just as awesome.

Small Changes You Can Make
Here are three small changes you can make to change your life today!
Eliminate Fragrance
Start now by looking at all of your products in your beauty cabinet, turn the bottles around and look at the labels. Search for the words "fragrance" or "parfume" - those are guarantee to be chock full of man made concoctions of chemicals and disruptors. Eliminate what you can, replace when you can with cleaner ingredients. Not sure how to know what products to choose? EWG skin deep is a website dedicated to showing almost every product available, and what they rate as " clean" or "harmful".
Exercise
Taking walks daily are known to improve overall health, but did you know that doing jumping jacks or using a rebounder (fancy name for trampoline) will help with lymphatic drainage? Proper function of the lymph helps our bodies detox smoothly, and process the toxins to go through our body and not remain stagnant.
Read
Read ingredients, read blogs, read about why certain ingredients are harmful to what parts of our bodies. EWG is a great resource for expanding your knowledge of what to use. If you think you can't afford clean products right now, start with elimination, detox, and clean eating. EWG has a list of foods that don't have to be organic, called the "clean 15" and foods that you should consider buying organic called the "dirty dozen".
My Vision
To redefine beauty for the health-conscious woman. Celebrating radiance through intentional, low-toxic care that supports your whole-body wellbeing.
