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.

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.

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.
