Why do people work with JoeStylist
for their curly hair coloring needs?

JoeStylist is your curly hair expert because we know that curly hair presents a unique set of challenges when it comes to coloring. The natural spiral structure of curly hair can make it difficult for color to penetrate evenly, often resulting in patchy or inconsistent results if not handled properly. This is because the bends and twists in curly hair can create barriers that prevent the color from distributing uniformly along the hair shaft.

Moreover, curly hair tends to be more porous and drier than straight hair, which means it can absorb color more quickly but also be more prone to damage during the coloring process. This increased porosity can lead to over-processing if the color is left on for too long, potentially causing frizz, breakage, and loss of curl pattern – all of which are major concerns for those with curly locks.

Lastly, the natural variation in curl patterns, even on a single head of hair, can make achieving a uniform color result challenging. Tighter curls at the crown may process color differently than looser curls at the nape, requiring a skilled stylist to adjust application techniques and timing to ensure a beautiful, even result that enhances rather than compromises the hair’s natural texture.

MEET JOE

Hi, my name is Joe Lee and I am a hair stylist and colorist serving McKinney Texas and the surrouding areas.

I feel being a stylist is a lot like, when I first moved to Texas. I knew no one here, I had no place to live, no job, and no family or friends. Although I was experiencing so many unknowns, I was feeling completely free and brimming with excitement to discover new things at the same time. While there was so much to discover, I found myself like a young child exploring the world for the first time. Let me share some key things from my childhood.

Like many of you, I grew up in a middle-class home. I am the youngest of, five and I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. My parents were determined that their children were going to have a better life than they did. Dad was an auto mechanic – he has a love for cars, that I will never have – down at the local Ford dealership. Mom was a stay-at-home mom, and along with taking care of a full household and countless errands, always had her make-up and hair done on point and dinner on the table every night before dad got home from work.

My parents constantly told me to get a good education so that I could land a secure job. Dad pushed all of his children and constantly explained the value of a good education. After graduating high school, I pursued a degree as a mechanical drafter – and spent 13 years in the trade.

But, There was a little voice, a powerful voice that kept saying deep down inside of me that, “Joe, this is not for you.” I wisely chose to listen to my inner voice.

Then, one day, I gathered the courage and walked away, and took my life in a completely new direction. I made a decision that would change my life forever, I decided that as long as I could do what I wanted, how I wanted then that career was for me. I decided to enroll in beauty school to start my new journey in life. After finishing beauty school, I embarked on a new chapter in my life as a hairstylist. The road was not easy… as the saying goes, it is not what you know that gets you in trouble, it is what you do not know that gets you in trouble.

I struggled to build a clientele like many stylists in this business. I wanted to become the best stylist I could be so I started asking questions and learning from highly accomplished stylists. I attended courses and seminars, attending lots of color classes, and what I discovered was there are two types of hairstylists – creative and technical types. Who knew these two groups existed!

Aha!

I became giddy with delight that my former technical training and engineering could finally be combined with my creative side . It was easy for me to see the shapes in haircuts and my client’s face.
As I sought to apply my learning and aha! discovery, I struggled to find my own personal style that would make the difference in the confidence and natural beauty of my clients. This struggle turned out to be an 18-year journey.

While attending a class in New York in 2019, I had discovered a new way of looking at trends… everything from the classics… to boho inspired by the hippie era… all the way up to the extravagant avant-garde that we see walking the run-ways of New York and Paris. This new way of “seeing” allows me to help my clients find their own unique style.

I’m more than happy to sit down with you and make a consultation about achieving your goals and what your desired look, while at the same time being realistic about what we can achieve.

Joe did amazing! I had long hair just hanging in the back and he fixed it. He fixed what my last hairstylist did and made it shine! He gave me face shaping, fixed my layers (I didn’t know I had), etc. 10/10 going back to him for sure! Highly recommend 😍

Loved meeting Joe, he did a great job with cutting my hair! He took the time to ask me what I wanted and was able to listen and let me know how he could help me achieve the style that worked for me.

Joe took the time to listen and ask questions to find out what I wanted. I knew I wanted volume since I have fine, low density hair with loose curls, but I wasn’t sure about which hair cut. He started with a trim, then I decided to go shorter with more layers and I absolutely love it! Joe was so patient and flexible when I requested changes. This was the first time I had gone to a hair stylist and I had a great experience!

Joe is the best. I trusted him to cut my hair after only having my family member cut my curly hair. He did a phenomenal job. He taught me how to best manage my hair, and was a delight to speak with. I recommend to anybody!

Joe gave me some 'low lights' in white hair that is the best work by far anyone has done for years. Very lucky to find him. Very reasonably priced too!

Where has Joe been all my life?!?! This is the absolute best cut/style I have ever received! Finally a stylist that cut my hair to bring out my curls & give me volume. He listens to what you’re looking for & makes great suggestions to really bring out the best in a look you’re going for!
As always I left Joe’s place with my hair looking and feeling fabulous! He has gotten my hair to a beautiful color in only 3 visits after it had previously been over bleached with highlights. Joe thinks I will be able to go completely natural after this visit. This has not been accomplished while looked so great in years! He is really a marvelous hair stylist and I love my hair!His shop is conveniently located in McKinney and he has a lovely private area. So glad that I found him!

Joe is a fantastic stylist and a lovely person. I came in with a complex ask in terms of color and he delivered with a custom formula. The color is beautiful and exactly what I wanted. He also went through an explanation of what my hair needed and why to maintain health. His personalized service is much appreciated.

Joe is the best! I've been to Joe varies times over the last 5 or 6 years and each time he actively listens to my request, makes suggestions and teaches me something new. He has reasonable prices and is extremely punctual. His customer service is outstanding every single time! I love the fact that you can be open and honest and ask questions. Thank you Joe for your attention to detail, and your focus on the customer.

I went to Joe for a much needed hair cut/styling. I am older and have short hair. I was looking for something a bit modern with a little edginess AND easy to take care of…… a tall order for sure!Joe listened to me, offered advice and then voila….worked his magic! I love my hair style, I love how easy it is to take care of AND I love Joe.

I just moved to Texas and was looking for a go to stylist since I have always been dyeing and cutting my hair for years. I found Joe through the web and saw he had great reviews so I decided to book an appointment with him. I initially wanted to get honey brown/blonde, full-head highlights. Mind you my hair is medium-long length, box dyed black colored with layers. When I met Joe, I notified him right away that my hair was box dyed 6 months ago and he gave me that "look". Joe actually talked me out of getting highlights on my head and you would think that was terrible for him to do and that the client should get what they want. I went to many stylists in the past that would do what I asked for. Joe instead explained to me that getting highlights would be a lot to maintain, would be costly and that my hair grows fast so the roots would start appearing after 3-4 weeks. He was willing to dye it but I had a second thought and decided that I didn't want to get highlights as I wouldn't maintain them properly and I didn't want to spend over $150 every month just to keep the color. Instead, I got a beautiful haircut with full bangs and layers AND ended up meeting one of the most honest and caring hairstylist out there. You can tell that Joe cares more about the client and protecting their hair versus caring about the money. Not many stylist like him out there. He listens and then gives his best advice to what is good for you and your hair. Plus he gave me good tricks and tips on how to keep my hair healthy and soft since my hair is naturally curly and dry. Highly recommended and now I found my go to stylist in Texas. Thank you Joe 🙂

Joe did a color correction and then two weeks later did a balayage and haircut. I’ve been doing my hair for the past 4-5 years and he not only made my hair look good but it feels great as well! Very happy with his work!
