Changing your hairstyle can do wonders for your self-esteem. Lithuanian hairstylist and founder of SelfStation, Jurgita Malakauskaitė, told Bored Panda that she has always had an innate sense for beauty and aesthetics and has known since her school days that she would become a hairdresser. She told us that her job is about more than just creating new haircuts: it’s about renewing clients’ confidence in themselves, giving them honest advice, and reminding women that they have to love themselves. “You simply make people happy,” that’s how Jurgita summed up what she does.

We’ve collected some before and after photos of the transformations that Jurgita gave her clients for you to look at, dear Pandas. Scroll down, upvote your fave transformations, and let us know which ones were your favorite and why in the comments below.

Jurgita told Bored Panda that she became a hairdresser at the age of 16. Since she was living in the small town of Mažeikiai, her parents opened up a small hairdressers’ for her to practice cutting her neighbors’ hair in. Afterward, she got her first real job and she now has over 24 years of experience in hairstyling or what she calls “creating feelings”.

    Long hair is beautiful but there’s always a point where it’s too long. Then it dominates and totally obscures all your other great features. All people see in the before picture is her hair, Whereas in the second picture her eyes and flawless skin just pop.

    The first one is FAR better. The second one, which removes the dark roots, ages the model by 10-15 years.

    This one only had the subtlest of changes done, but look at the difference they made! Same basic hairstyle shape but given a lift. Still blonde, but a better color blonde. And just a touch of makeup. Makeovers don’t have to be extreme to make an impact.

    This model has really strong and IMO beautiful features. The blonde color totally doesn't work with dark eyes/eyebrows and strong features.
