Hello.  Hello.  Hello.

I know I say this pretty much every month, but I truly hope you are doing well.  And those of you who are “re-entering” the work space (or have already), I hope it’s going smoothly.  A new routine (even though it’s really not) takes time getting used to.  Please be patient with yourself and those around you.  You got this!

We had a couple workshops in the salon last month.  One on a new haircolor line and the other on the Davines products we carry in the salon.  Davines is an amazing company that prides their self on beauty and sustainability.  The line has a haircare product for all the hair and scalp concerns you might have.  It is treatment based for specific needs as well as focusing on your everyday haircare needs. I will never “push” products on you, but I also want you to be using  the right products for your haircare needs.  That’s the purpose of my newsletter, too.  To help, educate, and answer any questions you might have.

The news of the day (of the world) certainly hasn’t let up at all, that’s for sure.  I know we (I) need to be paying attention but I also know we (I) need to make sure we’re (I’m) finding and making time to shut it off and take a break.  Watching our local sports teams (Go Warriors!) is just one of the ways I “escape” from the draining news. I’m way behind on movies but just recently binged “Heartstopper” on Netflix.  And Oh My, what a great series. I can’t recommend it enough.  Podcasts are a great “escape”, too.  I have one for you below a client recommended that is full of "spies, secrets, soviets, and leather pants".  It’s a timely listen, too, considering what’s happening in the Ukraine right now.

We are mask free in the salon so I am leaving it to you on whether or not you want to wear a face mask for your appointment.  I’m triple vaxed so I probably will not be wearing a mask.  I did have my first client last month who shared with me, well into their appointment, that they were not vaccinated. They wore their mask during their appointment, but it was a reminder there still are individual who are not vaccinated.  If you have not received your vaccination(s), you must wear a mask during your appointment. Please also let me know right away so I can take any necessary precautions, which means I may need to also wear a mask.

I've mentioned this before and it’s worth repeating.  If you hear that a friend or co-worker’s stylist has moved or is no longer doing hair, please feel free to pass along my information.  Here’s my digital business card and a QRCode you can share.

Is it Spring yet?

Almost!
Spring is just days away.
Daylight Savings begins on March 13th.
March Madness, also starts on the 13th.
AND, fingers crossed - we might, just MIGHT, even have baseball soon.
Boy, oh boy, oh boy. I cannot wait.

I hope this finds you heathy and in good spirits.

We are finally coming out of this 2 year “fog”. It’s been a challenge couple of years, that’s for sure, but we did it. Give yourself a pat on the back. We did what needed to be done (as best we could) and now have some of our “freedoms” back. The big one for me was dining out with friends last month for the first time in a long, long while. I knew I was OK, vaxed and all, but I still had to do a little coaxing to feel completely comfortable. I’m sure I haven’t been the only one working through these “new” social anxieties. I hope you’ve been managing your comfort levels, too. Baby steps, right.

Indoor mask mandates were lifted a couple weeks ago for those who are fully vaccinated. You should have received an email from me on how we’re proceeding at the salon. While all of us stylists working in the salon are vaccinated some may choose to still wear a face covering. You also have this choice.

Many of you will be returning back to the office soon, if you haven’t done so all ready. I’m starting to see a few of you again, which makes me very happy. I’ve also been seeing a few new clients because their stylist has either moved or “retired”. If you hear that a friend or co-worker’s stylist has moved or is no longer doing hair, please feel free to pass along my information. Here’s my digital business card and a QRCode you can share.

This month I have articles for you on a shampoo farce, the stages of hair in aging, deep conditioning treatments, why you shouldn't pluck your grays, and the humble history of shampoo bars. All that and more so please scroll down and check it out!

As always, I am available by email, text or phone if you have any questions or concerns.

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Be Well and Take Hair!
