On joining the circus: “It’s an amazing platform and it’s very progressive for industry education. It’s opened up so many doors and has let me connect with hairdressers I otherwise wouldn’t have. It’s such a progressive environment that captures what hairdressers want right now.”

Frequency: “Once a day.”

When posts are most successful: “I don’t put much thinking into what time, I just make sure that my followers are awake on both the east and west coasts.”

Favorite apps: “I don’t use much more for my posts than the sharpening tool on Instagram.”
