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.

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.

Fowak
Here is a fowak that I did on a client. She is an art student and wanted something really wild. This was fun to do!!!
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.
Curls
Here is a client that was getting dressed up for a black tie event and wanted some elegant hair that wasn't put up but just loose curls..

Cut & Color
Here is a short cut and color that I did. First I cut her hair, then I placed some foils on the top of her head to break up her dark color and add some dimension. Then I put an all over semi-permanent color on to finish. I love the way it turned out. This haircut was done with the RUSK Alpha Blades...to break up the hair and add texture.

Beach Wedding
Here are a few pictures of my girlfriend Eileen whose hair I did for her wedding on Anna Marie Island. She had extensions added to make her hair longer. She didn't want to wear a veil so what I did was use silver ribbon with wire in it and twisted it around her hair to make it like a crown and added a few flowers that were made to put in her hair that matched her bouquet. She looked like a Grecian Goddess. What a beautiul day it was and a very fun wedding.

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.
