Doctors don't have the answers
Looking at my family growing up, I knew thin hair was going to be in my future. Years of swim caps, sunglasses, poofs, and ponytails definitely took their toll as well.
So, I did what I was "supposed to" do: I went and saw a dermatologist for some answers and preventative help. What do you think I got?
Yup! You guessed it! No answers, a suggestion for a biopsy, and a "prescription" for Minoxidil (that I specifically said I didn't want). Ope, but I did also get the knowledge that minoxidil can affect fertility in women, something that might have been helpful to know prior to my three miscarriages.
Ever since then I've looked for solutions in products like Nioxin, Viviscal, Rogaine, Vegamor, Nutrafol, massage brushes and LED handhelds, rice water rinse...the list goes on...
It wasn't until I finally got fed up with the lack of options that the "see a need, fill a need" mentality won out.
...and that's how we got here.

The things I've seen...
While I now see that all of my previous career paths prepared me for life behind the chair, growing up, cosmetology had never crossed my mind as a viable career path.
I gained experience in architecture, journalism, marketing, photography, food service, wardrobing, and retail management. All the while, I couldn't piece together why nothing seemed to have the proverbial click.
I did, however, always know three things had to exist in my future career:
1 - Blend of art and science
2 - Make my patrons' day better when I saw them
3 - 'Revolutionize' the industry I'm in: make an impact
Yes, I take hair seriously
It all seemed to make sense now
After a fair amount of time behind the chair in two states (WA and CA), I was losing sight of how to make an impact. I adored my time with anyone sitting in my chair, but I felt like I wasn't able to adequately serve them.
So my brain started working. What was something I was constantly looking for and couldn't find?
Hair loss help.
And so, after getting certified by USTI (US Trichology Institute),
JP Solutions was born.
Now, along with providing superior color and cut services,
I'm here to present hard-to-find information and solutions regarding hair loss.

Don't be afraid
There is no question I won't answer.
Really!
Want to know why the hair at the base of your neck seems to frizz more than the rest of your hair?
Want to know if the latest "one-and-done" product will really give you the super fast results it's promising?
Not sure of the difference between hair thinning and shedding?
Can't remember the score of the Kraken game last night?
Curious why your baby has acidic diaper deposits while they're teething?
Seriously. Judgment free. No question I won't answer.
Weird is way more fun
Right?
As you can see, I've dabbled.
It may seem that I have a bit of an indecisive side. Understandably so.
Instead, think of it as more like going on a quest to discover the right thing that makes my heart sing.
Along the way, I've picked up some really great tidbits as well as some fun stories, all of which allow me to connect better with you.
Being behind the chair has allowed me to wave my wacky flag -- I often either speak in or make reference to movie quotes at least 10 times a day -- while also providing a happy, fun environment for exploration, understanding, and growth.
