Texture first
Curl pattern is only part of the picture. Density, shrinkage, previous color, the shape you want and how much styling you actually do at home all affect the cut.

CURLY HAIR · PALATINE
Curly hair is not one pattern, one method or one haircut. Mandie brings 20+ years behind the chair plus extensive curl-specific education to cutting and styling, then uses the techniques that make sense for your hair, the shape you want and how you actually wear it.

Curl pattern is only part of the picture. Density, shrinkage, previous color, the shape you want and how much styling you actually do at home all affect the cut.
Mandie’s current menu includes Curly Short, Curly Mid and Curly Long cuts, plus silk-press combinations for clients who move between natural texture and a smooth finish.
I’ve spent years learning how to work with curls, including education through DevaCurl and Rezo Academy and plenty of hands-on experience. There’s no single method that works for everyone. We’ll look at your texture, the shape you want and how you like to style your hair, then make a plan together.
Mandie now works in Palatine, making her an option for curly-hair clients in Palatine, Arlington Heights, Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, Barrington and nearby suburbs.
