Expertise

Can answer questions regarding haircoloring, haircare, retail products, haircutting, hairstyling and perms. Can not answer questions regarding hair straightners (chemical) and hair extentions.

Experience in the area

I have been licensed for more than seventeen years in the cosmetology field. One day I hope to become an Artistic Educator with a major color manufacturer or a platform artist. I specialize in color correction as color is a passion of mine. I have management experience as I managed a salon for a major chain for nearly four years. I have experience in training both video and by demonstrating techniques. I have expensive product knowledge.

Education/Credentials

Licensed cosmetologist in the state of oregon since 1991. Attend hair shows regularly to keep up with the current trends and techniques.

Awards and Honors

1991 Color competition that had five catagories to enter, out of the five catagories I placed in three of them with a first place, third place and fourth place.

What do you like about this subject?

I love color correction, I am always wanting to challenge myself and this is probably the most challenging area in chemical services. The more difficult the task the better. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a clients face when you have corrected what they thought was to be the end of the world...I love color...

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I hope to one day soon become an educator for a major color manufacturer and to also become a platform artist where I will continue to grow and give back what I have gotten.

Hi Gautam,    As with any chemical service I would suggest letting a professional licensed Cosmetologist do any color rather than doing it yourself.  Especially since your hair is dark black and very thick
