Check Out Danielle Fischer’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Danielle Fischer.

Hi Danielle, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Oh goodness, my story. I have always had a love for hair. My mom used to take me for perms (hello, 80’s + 90s!) as a little girl, and I fell in love with being in a salon. I worked with Drybar for years (my first true love!) until returning to my home state, Kansas. After college, I moved out to Phoenix to attend the Toni&Guy Academy for Cosmo school and enjoyed the desert life for about 10 years. This is where my passion for styling came from. Fun fact, I used to run from updos, and now I can’t get enough. Fast forward to today, I love going on location for weddings, events, and photoshoots.

We all face challenges, but would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Not all great things come easy, but each can teach you something and build strength. I remember the struggle of working in a big salon or going solo, building that confidence. I have done both, but each taught me something different. My big career hurdle was moving states. In Arizona, I established (comfortable) 10 years of friendships with clients and co-workers. That is a lot of life to do with your favorite people. We lived breakups, marriage, babies, all of it together. Once I moved back to Kansas, it was starting from scratch again. “No, I promise it’s not my first day” was a phrase I felt like I used a lot. My main takeaway from the last 10+ years, be myself. I was so nervous about chasing after my main passion (styling) that it slowed me down for a while because I felt I needed to succeed. Not anymore; now your girl is chasing after it!

Thanks – so, what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am an on-location stylist specializing in weddings, events, and photoshoots in the heart of Kansas, Wichita. I travel all over to surrounding states + cities. I love what I do and the incredible people I meet. Don’t be surprised when we become friends; the hair is just the perk! My hope of what sets me apart is the genuine interaction between myself and my clients. I want that massive sass when we are finished, and I will be your biggest hype girl!

If you had to, what characteristic of yours would you give the most credit to?
It is being approachable. I have always wanted to deliver next-level styles, but that can’t happen if people are intimidated. I always want to create an environment of confidence and allow people to be comfortable. Add that with the grit of not giving up; here we are!
