There’s a moment a lot of stylists experience — and no one talks about it enough.

You’re still showing up. Still posting. Still doing great work.

But underneath it? You’re bored. You’re tired. And maybe even a little numb.

“I didn’t realize I was bored until I felt free again.”

For me, extensions didn’t stop being beautiful. But somewhere along the way, they stopped feeling like mine.

What Burnout Actually Looks Like in the Hair World

It’s not always dramatic. Sometimes it’s subtle:

• Dreading the content creation

• Feeling like every stitch needs to be “approved” by someone else

• Second-guessing your placement because of a method rulebook

• Getting one more compliance email and thinking: “Why am I still doing this?”

If you’ve trained under systems built around NDAs, rules, and fear — you know exactly what I mean.

The over-coaching.
The checklists.
The perform-or-be-silenced pressure.

It’s exhausting. And it’s not what artistry should feel like.

That’s Why I Built Cease & Desist

Not just to teach great hair — though you will walk away with killer techniques.

But to give stylists something deeper:
Freedom. Simplicity. Joy. The feeling that made you fall in love with extensions in the first place.

C&D isn’t about “breaking rules” for the sake of it.
It’s about learning techniques that empower you — not box you in.
It’s about building a business you actually want to show up for.
And it’s about reconnecting with the part of you that loved this before the burnout set in.

If You’re Craving That Spark Again...

There’s a seat for you in the next live class.

No contracts. No NDAs. No burnout.
Just real education, real artistry, and a return to why you started.
