There was always a project happening, something being built, or a new idea being brought to life \u2014 and looking back, I think that\u2019s where my love for creating began. Hair was part of my life from an early age. My mom was the unofficial hairstylist of our family, and by about nine years old, I was already cutting and styling hair on anyone willing to sit still long enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-charcoal-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(14px, 0.875rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.417), 18px);line-height:1.7\">What started as childhood curiosity eventually became a career I\u2019ve loved for more than 22 years. I began my professional career at 19 and became a licensed cosmetologist at 20. Early in my career, I built my clientele while doing a significant amount of corrective color. That experience taught me how to truly understand hair \u2014 how color behaves, how to diagnose what happened and why, and how to create beautiful results with intention. I later opened Cut Loose Hair Emporium in Texas, where I spent 10 years building the salon, serving my established clientele, and continuing to grow my business before my family relocated to Colorado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-charcoal-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(14px, 0.875rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.417), 18px);line-height:1.7\">I was fortunate to sell the salon to one of the independent stylists who had worked there under my ownership, allowing something I had poured so much into to continue to thrive. After more than seven years in Colorado, life has brought my family and me back home to Texas, and I\u2019m excited to begin this next chapter in Boerne. Today, my work is centered around creating luxury, lived-in blondes and dimensional color that feels elevated, effortless, and completely customized to you. I specialize in balayage, foilyage, dimensional blonding, and grey blending, with an emphasis on beautiful, seamless results that grow out naturally and complement your lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-charcoal-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(14px, 0.875rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.417), 18px);line-height:1.7\">For me, great hair has always been about more than the service itself. I believe God has blessed me with this career and the opportunity to use the gifts He\u2019s given me, and my desire is to bring Him glory in all that I do. I want every person who sits in my chair to feel cared for, encouraged, and uplifted \u2014 to leave not only loving their hair, but feeling a little better than when they walked in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-charcoal-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(14px, 0.875rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.417), 18px);line-height:1.7\">Outside the salon, I\u2019m a wife and mom of three. I love spending time with my family, a good Americano, and finding something sweet. After more than two decades behind the chair, I still genuinely love what I do. There\u2019s something incredibly rewarding about seeing someone light up when they see themselves differently. I\u2019m so happy to be back in Texas and look forward to welcoming you to my chair here in Boerne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:28px\">\n<p class=\"has-custom-expresso-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(14px, 0.875rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.208), 16px);font-weight:600;letter-spacing:1px\">COLOR SPECIALIST \u00b7 ARTIST \u00b7 CRAFTSWOMAN<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-charcoal-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Resides in:<\/strong> Boerne, Texas<br><strong>From:<\/strong> Uvalde, Texas<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:30px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-custom-cream-color has-custom-gold-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/hairbycodyrae.com\/?page_id=1002\">EXPLORE EDUCATION \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-custom-dusty-blue-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-12152a18 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-top:62px;padding-right:32px;padding-bottom:62px;padding-left:32px\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-custom-cream-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-family:var(--wp--preset--font-family--allura);font-size:clamp(24.034px, 1.502rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 1.663), 40px);line-height:1.2\">Good Hair Changes Everything \u2661<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MEET CODY RAE ARTISTRY WITH PURPOSE I\u2019m a South Texas native, born and raised in a small town where I grew up on a ranch in a creative, hardworking family.
