I've been going to Mercantile for my hair since March of 2015. It was there where I had my first experience going blonde (balayage) and ever since then I haven't gone anywhere else. Until now that I moved several states away, ha ha! Although this photo shoot took place last summer I wanted to share these awesome shots with you all since summer is quickly approaching us again. Everything about this shop is so pleasing to the eye. The detail is incredible and the environment is so friendly and welcoming, you feel right at home. Mercantile is located in Downtown Phoenix, practically neighboring + walking distance from Desoto Market. Shauna Thibault (owner of Mercantile) has a talented group of individuals. They really can do just about anything with hair. During one of my fringe trim appointments with Stephen Lynch, we talked about my interests and he reached out with an idea to collaborate and make a photoshoot happen. I didn't have to think twice about styling for them! We quickly exchanged information and within a week or two set a date for Mercantile's summer photo session. I instantly told Noemi about the idea and she was on board as well. Who better than my creative partner, right? This girl can do anything with her camera and I knew she'd grasp Mercantile's vision. It was so much fun to see the make over process on these 3 beautiful women. They were naturals in front of the camera! If you live in Phoenix, AZ make a stop at Mercantile! They not only focus on hair but have a beautiful selection of vintage clothing, art, and home goods.
