If I could go to Australia..


I would TOTALLY VISIT THIS SALON!!!

I've always wanted to go to the "down undah" But now seeing-  this  -salon, I REALLY want to go.

"Fur" Salon, located in Melbourne, Australia is only 258 Square Feet of awesomeness! One of three salons owned by Frank Valvo, this salon looks like it has a very sweet vibe to it. Also, looking at the website, I feel like every stylist is completely unique and true to their personalities. I just want to be friends with them! The walls/ hidden drawers and cabinets are made from recycled basket ball quarts! SO COOL.(&so green! ah!) Being a super nerd for architecture and design, I am very "wowed" by this place.
Are there any places you are "wowed" by? lol

I'm off to work now! I think I have a busy day ahead of me! :)
Stay Fabulous!

Nasty Splits

I got my hair cut yesterday at my salon by the amazing "Famous Ray." After having my hair blown out by Michael last week, I was completely embarrassed by how disgusting my ends were. So I figured it was time to get over it and cut my hair. (It's painful for me.) I'm not sure why I don't take my own advise when It comes to my own hair. I tell my clients this: "If you want long beautiful locks, you must TRIM YOUR HAIR!" Every 6-8 weeksssss ladies! (4-6 If you want to keep the length.) You're split ends are breaking off and that's why your hair isn't growing! It's not like I don't understand how you feel. *Ugh it took me so long to get to this point I can't cut it off now!* or.. * ONE INCH!? ARE YOU KIDDING?!* lol and *ok you can cut like thiiiiiissssssss much and NOTHING MORE!!!*
I felt the same way.
I went from THIS:














To THIS:

















 In 3 LONGG years.
But of course I know better now and that's why I'm at the salon to help you! The longer you wait to trim off the nasty nast you have going on, the MORE you'll have to take off to make it healthy again. 
Look how gross this is...
Well yah it's magnified, anything that magnified is going to look gross. But really though, looking at pictures like this makes me disgusted at myself for having the ends that I did.
