BRIANA MODÈN

Many of us have a hair disaster story that led us to the extension industry. Here is mine…

I have been on both sides of the “beautiful” and “not so beautiful” spectrum. During the most challenging moments of my life, I found solace in altering my hairstyle. It was a simple change that gave me a sense of control and the freedom to experiment, knowing that if I didn't like it, I could always switch it up again. 

Shortly before my 2015 wedding, I had gone to a well-known Denver salon (to treat myself for once). My hair was a little longer than my shoulders and darker than my normal blonde! I had spent four hours in a salon chair as a stylist placed foils in my hair and left me under a dryer to process, while catering to other clients. Once my hair was shampooed, I moved to another stylist's chair for the blow-drying process. It was during this time that I noticed the alarming shade of orange my hair had turned, and I watched in horror as chunks of hair were brushed out due to the unsupervised chemical treatment I had just undergone! Despite spending a hefty $350, I left the salon with an unintentional orange mullet, just four months before my wedding day!

Can you imagine how invisible I wanted to be at that moment? The embarrassment and stress that came along with needing to spend more money to fix someone else’s mistake on something so important to me, my hair.

This horrible moment motivated me to learn everything I could, about extensions! They changed my life! They made me feel beautiful and confident again. The emotion and confidence I felt, is what I want to give every woman out there! To make her feel more beautiful than she already is.

My strive for perfection, my listening ear, empathetic personality and eagerness to please are what makes me stand out above the rest. I am determined to have you walking out of the salon with your view of perfection! This “strive” is one that keeps me up at night. I will make sure that my walking billboard (you), is as perfect as can be! I want nothing more than to make my guests feel like they’re the only thing that matters at that moment! (This is why I only schedule one person at a time.) My full focus will be on you!
