In “What Your Stylist Wants You to Know”, the haircare gurus from Magick & Mane/SRQ Hair return to talk over their holistic approach to hair issues that’s helping women stay vibrant, sexy, and beautiful through every stage of life.Heather kicks off the conversation by praising Melissa Marino’s seasoned artistry and "energy-informed beauty rituals"—a phrase we absolutely adore! Specializing in Japanese haircare science and mesh integration systems, Melissa is all about luxury and longevity, helping women reclaim their confidence from the "crown down".
The conversation quickly turns to the new salon space Melissa shares with extension specialist Isle Chevalier, who brings her expertise in regrowth and healthy extensions to what Heather describes as an "incredible little sanctuary” in Laurel Park, near downtown Sarasota.
Together they are making a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free zone for women struggling with hair loss, thinning, or hormonal changes. Melissa and Isle are committed to continued learning, training in cutting-edge non-surgical hair replacement methods like micro lines and mesh integration.
Beyond these latest techniques, Melissa and Isle both emphasize the importance of consulting with all our medical professionals, staying hydrated, and some other self-care fundamentals we might not typically associate with our healthy, radiant hair.
They also drop some bombshells on product usage, starting with “listen to your stylist - they're not just trying to sell you products!”. Listen in to find out what to use on your hair, how to use it, and the one place to STOP buying your haircare products from.
This episode reminds us that taking care of our hair is about more than just vanity—it's about reclaiming confidence, feeling good, and shining our light in the world. So, chill out, have another glass of water and shampoo your scalp. Your hair, and your inner rockstar, will thank you.
Episode Highlights

"Distribute the natural oils from the scalp down to those ends that are dry. That's the amazing thing about the boar bristle brush. Don't use it on wet hair, but use it on dry hair. "
our crown
" it's really about taking the embarrassment and the shame out of it. We as women, you know, our hair is really our crown, right?"
its in the water
"I mean, we've got the cast iron pipes, we've got bad water all around, whatever it affects not only your hair, your skin, eczema, psoriasis, this and that, but. Yeah, the shower head filter is a must and it's a must to change at least every three months. I've got clients that also have a full house water filtration and softener."
Feel good, Look good.
"...help them to put their best foot forward, because I really do believe that when we feel good inside and we feel confident, you know, you can go out into the world and you can, you know, be a light in the world and you can do good things for other people. So this really to, to me, is about more than just hair, yeah. Feel good. Look good, dude."
your stylist want you to know
"...thick hair like yours, Heather, if you don't part your hair down the middle and feel that, that water pressure on your scalp, your hair's not wet enough"
