About Me
- kellymharmsen
- Bradenton, Florida, United States
- My name is Kelly Harmsen and I've been a licensed Cosmetologist since 1991. Born and raised in Chicago Heights, Illinois now living in Bradenton, Florida and owner of my own hair & art salon. I started at eight years old working in my Dad's hair salon and loving it. While all of the other kids were reading Dr. Seuss I was readng Vidal Sassoon. After graduating from Beauty School I started assisting at a salon that offered additional education to further my career. I became heavily involved in RUSK after attending classes with my boss to watch them cut hair. I consider Irvine Rusk to be my biggest inspiration along with my Dad. I love what I do and if you come to visit me hopefully you will too. I specialize in cutting, corrective coloring, foiling and working with curly hair. I have very naturally curly hair myself and until you live with curly hair you don't understand it. I love helping someone to love their curly hair also.

Buttery Blonde Highlight & Haircut Blowdry
Loved doing this beautiful buttery blonde highlight on my client. This was done with all Framesi Color. Framesi is an amazing color line.
Beaded Purple Stack Wrap Bracelet Bohemian Lifestyle
This bracelet is a beautiful eclectic mixture of all of my favorite beads. It has everything from silver, jasper, ceramic, seed beads, heart shaped silver beading, hematite hearts, rhinestones and three different handmade charms on the ends along with a heart and a love charm. It wraps around the wrist six times. Such a fun mixture of beads. I also have a very tiny row of seed beads in rich dark purple that pop out between the bigger beads. It fits a wrist of 6 - 7.5 cm and it wraps around the wrist so there's no closure to the bracelet. A beautiful gift for that girl in your life.

Before & After Color
This sweet girl came with her friend who was getting her hair colored so she wasn't on my schedule to do her color. She had been coloring her own hair at home and it was just too washed out. I only had twenty minutes to color her hair so all I did was put a toner on it to even it out a little more. I think it turned out great and she was very happy with it.

Balayage/Highlight - Toner - Haircut Blowdry
This is my beautiful niece who hadn't had her hair colored in about six months and didn't want anything too noticeable because she was looking for a part-time job while still in high school.
I started with some foils around her face and went backward on her head so the front would be the lightest to look like she had been at the beach. I purposely wanted them to be darker through the back and underneath of her hair. I did some very random thick & thin pieces to make it very organic looking and yet it all blended together. Then I toned her to take some of the warmth out of her hair but not all of it. I love the way it turned out and so did she. Hope she gets the job she is interviewing for.

Hair Color - Three Color Foil - Haircut Blowdry
This client came to me wanting a change but not too much. I colored her base and did some random foils throughout her head with three different colors. I love the way this turned out. Very natural yet fun.
Hair Color/Soft Balayage
This client wanted a very soft balayage in her hair. Didn't want a lot of outgrowth from it so I was very careful to not do too much color.
Before & After Color/Highlight-Tonelight/Haircut
This client hadn't been in to get her hair done in a couple months. She has beautiful hair that just needed some love. I did a base color to cover her grey hair. Did some highlights and lowlights to blend her color and darken up some of her ends. Then I did a haircut blowdry on her.

Base Color - Partial Foil - Haircut Blowdry
This was a base color to cover grey and then a partial foil with a haircut blowdry using Framesi Haircolor and Decolor B Bleach.
Hair Color Correction Before & After Pics
This teenage girl came in to see me because she had colored her own hair with bleach and it was pretty damaged. I told her that to keep her hair in good condition I would only color it darker not add anymore bleach to her already over processed hair. So I did a color with 5 volume and it turned out beautiful and her hair was in better condition than before using Framesi 2001 color line.
Multidimensional Hair Color With Foil Using Framesi Hair Color
This was a fun color to do. She always likes to do something different. I did my usual foil on her but added some pop pieces to it. The results were great.
