Review: Your Stylist, LLC

Leave a comment


With having two kids in three years, my body has changed and I feel like I have NO TIME to shop or spend time getting creative with my wardrobe like I used to. So, as a result, I had three go-to outfits I kept wearing over and over again because I knew they fit, were comfortable, and were somewhat on-trend. In a pre-Facebook world, that might have worked a little better, but I kept getting embarrassed knowing that I had JUST worn the same thing when I posted something last week! haha!

Jackie Neville, founder of Your Stylist

I met Jackie Neville, founder of Your Stylist, at an event a couple months ago, and she said her specialty is helping women out of their style ruts. Ok, you have my attention, Jackie! 🙂

So,  I met her and filled out her initial questionnaire so she could learn about my lifestyle, style, and things I needed help with (like needing more go-to outfits!), etc.

She then came to my house, and did a full-on closet consultation to get rid of things that didn’t fit me well, determine what needed to be tailored to better fit me (and therefore get worn more often), and then she did a REALLY cool thing where she sorted my closet by outfit. She used these special hangers, where she had a shirt and a few different pants/skirts/jackets/sweaters that I could wear with it to make a full outfit. Voila, I have a TON of go-to outfits now!

I can’t tell you how much easier this makes my life every morning! Definitely recommend her! Click here to check out her site, and all the services she offers (she does personal shopping, etc., too!). I also recommend following her on Facebook and Instagram for some great styling and trend tips!

Today’s interview is with hair stylist Deanna. She’s worked at Mi Salon Spa now for about 11 years, and her specialty as a hair stylist is providing Keratin Treatments. Deanna says Keratin is a hair-straightening product that’s applied to your hair and she uses the heat of a flat iron to seal it in. If you usually style your hair straight, a Keratin hair-straightening treatment could shorten your blow-dry time by 40% to 60%.

Deanna has a few tips for making your Keratin Treatment last longer: Don’t wash your hair for three or four days after getting the treatment, because the solution takes time to work. After you get a Keratin Treatment, and after the don’t-wash waiting period, you should use sodium-sulfate-free shampoo to help maintain the results! They have two types of Keratin Treatments, one that will last up to six months, and an express treatment that will last about two months if you’d just like to dip your toe in the water!

To learn more about Deanna and/or Mi Salon Spa, book an appointment, just check out www.misalonspa.com or call 859.647.2566. Check out my interview with Deanna below!
