Sup…and welcome

A woman standing inside a room with a wall decorated with various picture frames, letters, and decorative items. She is wearing a black AC/DC t-shirt, black jeans, glasses, and has tattoos on her left arm.

Well, well, well… look who finally started a blog.

Hi, I’m Airika aka Hairika and if you thought sitting in my chair was an experience, wait until you read my unfiltered thoughts without a blow dryer screaming in the background.

Why a blog?

Instagram captions are cute, but I need more room to rant. TikTok? Pah-lease. I’m just an old hairstylist with stories, sarcasm, and too much caffeine.

What you’re signing up for

Behind the Chair Gossip: Hair glow-ups, disaster saves, and my hot takes on trends and personal experiences. (Spoiler: a “wolf cut” is just layers, babe.)

Mom Mode: My daily chaos raising two kids one with ASD + ADHD, and a tiny princess/snarky daughter who runs my life.

Reflections: Some days I’m grateful, some days I’m salty, and some days I just need to remind the world (and myself) that I’m really good at what I do.

Tips, Tricks & Faves: I don’t gate keep. I’ll share my tools, my favorite products, and affiliate links so you can snag what I actually use. (links coming soon!)

The vibe

This isn’t a polished, vanilla lifestyle blog. This is House of Hairika: where the drinks are cold, the tea is hot, and the therapy is free. If you came for “perfect,” you’ve got the wrong stylist, honey. I’m not her. I give the hard, uncomfortable, honest truths.

Either way — welcome to my house.
