She bounced into my life for work , Dina was 1 in a million she became my friend and my right hand man. She was passionate and caring talented with a huge heart. Dina did not wear her heart on her sleeve but in her mouth !! And I loved her for that !! I miss her terribly and she can never be replaced . I love you your students love you . Forever and always ❤️
Having Dina as an instructor is something I’ll never forget. On our worst days, she lifted us up with her amazing sense of humor and constant support. There was no second guessing ourselves when she was around because she would ALWAYS nip it in the bud, and tell us that we were doing absolutely amazing. When I had a client that was a handful, she took over and defended my skills and comforted me when I burst into tears. I will never, EVER forget that moment. We miss you Dina. You have impacted us all greatly. ❤️
Tho I only knew Dina for only a few months, it was enough to make a huge impact on my life. I saw how much of an inspiration, beautiful soul and how truly loved she was. I had seen her work she had done over the years and I absolutely admired her encouragement, her ways of teaching and always standing by your side to help you through things that you felt so unsure of. Her laugh, her knowledge and her words of pure encouragement are missed daily. She is spoken of daily and you can see just how much she touched everyone’s hearts, minds and souls. We love and and miss you Dina.
I met Dina when I started blades in October 2021 . I felt like she instantly claimed me when I was a freshman in the back room , we instantly clicked. I was her Tabby , Piscean sister & “Pushback”(our inside joke) Dina was more than just my teacher ,she was my friend ,mentor ,biggest cheerleader , to me she was like my long lost big sister I never knew I had. every room Dina was in she made her presence known either by her laugh ,jokes & encouraging words! Dina will forever live in my heart and made the biggest impact on my cosmetology career. I love you forever my Piscean sister , till we meet again in our next life .
Dina and I met beginning of February, 2022. I felt like Dina had all the answers to my questions. She had the best advice inside of hair and outside of it. Not only was she a teacher, she was our bestie. She knew everything. She was so fierce about us. She NEVER judged us, never made us feel like we didn’t belong, and never was rude. I’ll miss her sass, beauty & talent. “Never forget how wildly capable you are.” I’ll never forgot our last conversation. Love you to the moon and back, blades isn’t blades without you.

Dina was my stylist for years at Hair It is. She even styled my hair on my wedding day. She was such a kind and caring person, and I was so sorry to hear of her passing. She often spoke warmly about her family and friends during our appointments. I send my heartfelt condolences to all of her loved ones. I have made a donation to BARCS in her memory. Rest in peace, Dina
