    Keri’s lore

    Creative people are rarely just “born talented”—and Keri’s story shows how support, curiosity, and a restless creative streak can shape a career in unexpected ways. In this episode of *Tell Me About Your Hair*, Julee sits down with her friend Keri to explore the real story behind her talent, her career, and the creativity she can’t switch off. Keri shares how her parents’ encouragement helped nurture her creativity, how a chance visit to a hair show sparked her interest in the industry, and how an 11-year career at Supercuts gave her a strong foundation in both hairstyling and education. She reflects on moving from chain salons to higher-end work, finding her place as a stylist and educator, and realizing she wanted more time and freedom to create. The conversation also takes a more personal turn as Keri talks about losing her friend Valentino to pancreatic cancer—and how that experience changed her perspective on time, relationships, and taking creative risks. She opens up about building an audience through comedy and hairstyling videos, handling online backlash, and finding a healthier balance between sharing her life and keeping parts of it private. Along the way, Keri offers advice for aspiring content creators: focus on storytelling, make your work memorable, and keep showing up. Because sometimes, people choose a stylist not just for the hair, but for the person they’ll enjoy spending time with.

    Julee’s lore

    The hairstylist advice everyone gets is backwards. Julee George reveals what actually helps you grow behind the chair, why hair can feel like part of your identity, and how salon habits can shape your business, confidence, and client relationships. Julee and Keri go beyond beauty talk and into the realities of working in hair: how education changed Julee’s career, what makes salon systems work, and how she went from choosing hairdressing for the lunch break to becoming a Redken educator, salon owner, and part owner and operational manager of Image Studios in Huntington Beach. In this candid conversation, they explore: - How education and learning from mistakes can move a stylist’s career forward - The business differences between cutting and color services - What assistants need to learn—and how thoughtful systems can support them - Why clear, upfront pricing builds trust with clients - How to think through complicated color corrections and when it may be better to say no - Whether bangs really can work for everyone Julee also shares stories from building and selling a 13-station salon in Long Beach, training assistants, and balancing creative work with the demands of running a business. Along the way, the conversation wanders into banana bread, salon humor, gray hair, and why some transformations may look great in a photo but be harder to live with. For hairstylists, salon owners, beauty students, and anyone who knows hair is more than just hair, this episode offers honest stories and practical perspective from years behind the chair.

    Salon Disasters, Weird Clients & When It’s Time to Fire Them

    Today, we’re not just drinking tea—we’re spilling it. Keri and Julee kick things off with the stories hairstylists usually save for after work: embarrassing salon mishaps, clients who cross a line, hair disasters, and the moment you realize a client relationship just isn’t working. From a pants-splitting salon emergency and a shampoo-bowl soaking to burnt bangs, a 16-hour color correction, and the client who asked, “Do you even have a license?”—nothing is off limits. Along the way, they get real about owning mistakes, rebuilding trust, setting boundaries, and knowing when the kindest answer is “I can’t safely do that.” Plus: state board stories, salon gross-outs, and the unforgettable client Keri finally had to fire.
