Curly Sue!

So this was my first attempt to put sponge curlers in Kadence's hair. Her hair is just now getting long enough to get them in. I remember as a little girl my mom would do this on a weekly basis to me and my sis. I thought I would give it a try. My first mistake was washing her hair on the same day; the second was making them sound like so much fun. If the were not sliding out on there own, they had help coming out by Kadence! Despite the thirty times I put the same ones in over and over we survived and the end result was so cute! Too bad her hair does not hold any curl! It lasted, oh, about an hour!

ThAnK YoU!!!

I just want to thank everyone for all the great support. The new place is getting better everyday! I have already had quite a few new clients and alot of old ones too! I am also getting used to the new setup. I feel more comfortable there every time I work! Everyone has been asking where I went and I was nervous to put the name of it on my blog. Then I remembered that I advertise with the salon name, my name, and my phone number. Putting on my blog can't be much worse, right? So I was just letting you all know that is is called Urban Retreat. Someone said to that I just went from one retreat to another it can't be too much different! Ha Ha I wish! Things are getting better and I just need to give it more time to set in. Thanks again to everyone who gave me encouraging advice. I really appreciate it!



If anyone remembers I posted about the trick or treat thing on main street and that I was kind of excited to not have to worry about it. Well They are doing the same thing at the ballpark here in Salem! I am going to do it just because it will help build my business and it is free advertising. I can't pass that up for sure, I don't have to pay a dime and the people come to me! PERFECT! I just thought it was kind of ironic because it is the first year Salem city is doing it! That is my luck!

This is Halloween 2006. Just thought I would put a picture on here to make my post a little exciting! Just in case you can't tell I was a witch, Wes was a mummy and Kadence was a Latin dancer! Her dress actually came from Spain, thanks to Aunt Chels! She is even wearing my fake hair piece from drill team! I love Halloween!

Same job...New place

I would really like to consider my self to be someone who can do and conquer anything but when it comes to this I am crossing my fingers!

Today was the start of a whole new chapter for me and to be completely honest I am scared to death! I started at the new salon and I feel like I have changed so much more than that. I am doing the exact same thing just in a different chair but it feels like I have never done hair a day in my life. It was little things; for example where my hair dryer was plugged in and where my combs where sitting. I never thought it would matter so much. I was Springville for just over three years so that place became a second home to me. A place I felt comfortable and relaxed but I just threw that all out the window. I am not saying that is a bad thing but I think change is just hard.

I sit and ponder on all the reasons I chose to leave and I keep reminding myself that I did the right thing for the right reasons. I just hope that it can work out and I will love the new place as much as the old. If anyone from the shop is reading this I just want you to know that I love all of you and I thank you for the friendship you all shared with me. Good Luck in all you do!
