About Ask Hairoline

You may already know me as your hairstylist, or friend, or person on the internet whose feed toggles wildly between global atrocities and whatever's going on with my cat and garden...very little hair content, turns out! Listen I have an old android phone and I'm busy at the salon, if I even remember to take a picture of some hair there is a 100% chance it's blurry. You know what's not blurry? My opinions!

When the pandemic began and I was still in LA I kept in close touch with clients through regular mass emails (I bcc'd, I'm not a monster) mostly for human connection and to figure out how to do their hair at home, but I'd also tell fun anecdotes and give podcast/tv/film recommendations and reviews, and that whole routine went on for a solid three years. I loved doing it and even folks whose hair I didn't do anymore for one reason or another asked to stay on the email list, which gave me a pretty big head about the quality of my newsletter writing. I miss that! So I'm here now to do a newsletter version of those primitive emails but to additionally answer an advice question each time, in the spirit of living up/down to the stereotype of the hairapist. If you've ever been in my chair I've probably given you at least very entertainingly questionable advice and now I'm aiming to expand the reach of my non-HIPAA-compliant guidance.
