About Me

My photo
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.

Block Highlight & Haircut Blowdry

Here is my client Helen that wanted a very chunky foil along with a haircut blowdry.  I used 3 colors for her highlight doing some block foils.  I used a blonde, reddish brown and dark brown.

Block Colored Highlights and Angled Bob

My client Helen wanted her haircolor to stand out so I combined some thick weaves, block weaves and fine weaves in between.  The colors are a pale blonde, reddish brown and mocha brown.  Then I put Redken Shades in between the foils to give the rest of the hair more shine and to brighten up the rest of her hair.  Then I cut her hair in an uneven angled bob so it falls lower on one side.

Haircut

This is a haircut I did yesterday.  I used the Halo technique by RUSK and then left the front long.  Using the Alpha blades I broke it up to release some of the weight.

Another Three Dimentional Highlight and Angled Bob

For this client first I touched up her base color and then foiled her with three different colors.  Then I cut her angled bob and then broke it up using the RUSK Alpha and Gamma Blades.

Angled Bob

Here is an angled bob that I cut.  She has great hair.  It's thick and straight.  I used the RUSK Alpha, Gamma and Delta blades to cut and texturize it.  Then I styled her hair with Jele Gloss and then finished her with Shining Spray which are both by RUSK too.
