Ammon Carver App Feature

A lot of people ask me where I get inspiration from to take the risks that I do, and its simple...I try to create content or projects based on what I feel like the beauty industry is lacking. If you checked out my Hair App post that you can find HERE you probably gathered that I launched my own educational hair app. Yup, and it wasn't easy but I couldn't be more stoked on it. I created it because I felt that there was a gap inside of digital hairstylist education so I invested my savings and simply went for it. 

The app is loaded with full length step by step tutorials from up styles, braids and haircutting.  But the best part of the app in my opinion, is that I feature a fellow hairstylist that is doing incredible thing in my industry and I want to help celebrate their craft. A few months ago I got to feature my dear friend Ammon Carver check him out HERE. He has turned into such a wonderful friend over the past coupe of years and I was honored that he was willing to share his passion with you all on my hair app. Below is a sneak peak into his exclusive interview and get this....he created a beautiful pony tutorial for you guys inside my educational app. Watch his video below and if you want to see more, make sure to download my app for 9.99 a month to get my education along with some go getters at your finger tips 24/7. You can find it HERE for iTunes and HERE for Google Play.

Pai-Shau New Luxury Hair Care Line Alert!

You guys are fully aware that I love me some new products. Im the one that has to be in the know of anything that is up and coming beauty related. So when I kept on hearing about a new luxury hair care line called Pai-Shau, I knew I had to try it.

The big reason I rushed to give this new hair care line a shot is because it was different. Its not your typical line. Its infused with Tea. Yes, like tea you drink! They had me at Tea, and so my curiosity made me give it a shot. 

The fragrance is strong yet sexy. It almost has a masculine smell to it, but my clients and I were quickly drawn to the smell. The line has a full range of products that make your hair soft, shiny and silky but the winner so far for me is their Bi-phasic infusion oil which a rejuvenating concentrate of their signature tea complex. It makes the hair extremely soft, silky and most importantly shiney.

For any of my luxury hair care lovers, Pai-Shau is a must try! You can find it online or your local Pai-Shau distribution which you can find on their website HERE and let me know what you think!

Confessions of a Hairstylist Educational App

I couldn't be more proud to announce that I have created a Confessions of a Hairstylist educational app. The “Confessions” app was created to provide industry-leading content in a convenient and accessible way, delivering incredible value to subscribers that will further their skill set and ultimately help subscribers earn more money and grow their business. The app will also feature a new stylist each month to talk about real industry matters, fostering a community for stylists by tackling topics and issues that aren’t often discussed in the hair industry. 

The objective behind the app is to provide stylists with affordable ongoing education. Although Jenny already features tutorials on her popular YouTube channel, the app will provide a more concentrated and intense educational experience. Each month there will be highlighted stylists such as Philip Wolf, Chief Behr, Nina Kovner, Linh Pham and Ammon Carver lined up to contribute their tips and tricks on achieving success in the hair industry.

The app will be available for $9.99/month in the Apple and Google Play stores. Available worldwide with English language support. 

Special thanks to our amazing app sponsors Pai-Shau , Kenra Professional, Brazilian Bond Builder and Framar.
