Breast Cancer Awareness

One of my favorite new artists, Amos Lee, has a line in one of his songs that states, "There is nothing more powerful than beauty in a wicked world." Something tells me he's not referring to beauty in a superficial sense. I agree. When you put something beautiful or positive out there, it reminds those of us who are witness to it that there is still a lot of good in our world.

Breast Cancer Awareness is coming up soon. So get involved with your local events. Show the world you care. It affects us all. In my humble opinion, Breast Cancer Awareness should be all year long.

A small bit of business news: ALFAPARF Milano has announced the new Anti-age Group for their Semi Di Lino Diamante line.  (Available at The Velvet Seven.)  So for those of you with sun and pool chemical damange, or if your hair is in need of a little refreshment from the days of summer blonde coloring, this new group of products will help repair and restore shine and vitality to your stressed out hair, as well as protect your expensive color

It's not "just hair"!  It's your image.  Nurture it.

Don't Settle for Less

The connection between stylist and client is a very personal relationship. This partnership has many sides. The most important of which is our joint quest to improve and maintain the client's image. The only way to really solidify that trust factor is to actually care! What happened to the days of hairdressing being about the experience of an expert, with objectivity and sincerity, pulling out all the stops, using all their power and creativity to bring out the best in you? I'll tell you.

The salon industry has been more volume-minded in recent years, and that means less time for not just the consultation but the execution! It comes down to pride in one's craft and self. People, that's what our clients deserve. No matter what the salon you go to charges for the services they provide. Don't settle for less. Confidence is what you came for. Don't leave without it.
