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.

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.

Partial Foil and Haircut

Here is my client Toni that just had her hair highlighted and cut.  She had shorter hair and now we are growing out her layers towards a slightly stacked bob.

Kathy's Color

This is my client Kathy.  I did a root touch-up with Redken Color Gels to make her a copper brown.  Then I did a few sunkist foils around her face and scattered a few very finely weaved foils on top with Redken ShadesEQ in between the foils.  When the foils were done I took the bleach off and pulled the color through the rest of her hair for 5 min to tone the highlights.  Then I gave her a haircut layering her hair and angling it around her face to soften the shape up and a blowdry.  It turned out beautiful and looks very natural.
