Good Hair Days Make Everything Better

Hi There! So Happy You’re Here.

Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a hair color specialist turned beauty and lifestyle blogger, and I’ve spent over 15 years working behind the chair helping people feel confident and beautiful. Now, I’m sharing my love for hair, color, and creativity with you — from inspiration and real-life hair moments to the products and techniques I swear by.

Whether you’re looking for color inspiration, ideas for styling, or just a little beauty and lifestyle motivation, my goal is to help you feel confident exploring your own style and having fun with your look.

The Heart of This Blog

This blog is all about celebrating creativity in hair and everyday beauty. I believe that experimenting with color, trying new styles, and taking care of your hair shouldn’t feel intimidating — it should feel empowering and joyful.

Through personal stories, honest product reviews, and behind-the-scenes insights from my years as a stylist, I aim to make hair and beauty approachable for everyone. I love sharing what I’ve learned, so you can feel inspired to try something new or embrace your own unique style.

About Me

I was born in San Francisco and raised in Marin County, where I still live today with my husband, two kids, and our dog Bubbles. I began my journey in beauty in 2009 when I started beauty school, and since then, I’ve spent over 15 years mastering hair color, balayage, highlights, color corrections, and extensions, tailored to every hair type and texture.

Recently, I also received a certification as a Clinical Medical Assistant, and while hair is still a big part of my story, I’m not currently working behind the chair — instead, I’m focused on sharing my passion for hair, beauty, and lifestyle through this blog.

When I’m not creating content, you’ll usually find me curled up with a good book, walking Bubbles on Marin’s beautiful trails, cheering on my kids at their sports games, or riding my bike. I love exploring the stunning surroundings I call home — from hidden paths in Marin County to all the vibrant corners of the Bay Area.

Hair has always been my art, but life, creativity, and inspiration show up everywhere — and that’s what I love sharing here.

“Hair is more than a look — it’s a way to show up as yourself.”

“Autumn: A lovely reminder that change can be beautiful, that golden leaves and crisp breezes bring new beginnings with every ending.”

“Amanda is such a talented color stylist. I went in to the salon with hair that didn't have any dimension to it. I had a few pictures for inspiration and she saw my vision”

“I absolutely love Amanda's work. She does my hair extension with utter accuracy and perfection. Her skills are unmatched and hence I have been going to her for years. I strongly recommend Amanda to everyone.”
