On the Floor:

Scissor over comb for the first time on the floor!  We don't do clipper over comb, so everything is done with shears.  Eek!  Talk about nerve wracking!  His hair was really thin so every hair was visible.  It took me a while, but I got it and he left happy :) 

Product:

Awapuhi Wild Ginger Styling Oil:
          I seriously can not get enough of this.  I haven't been very nice to my hair this year with all the lightening, but this product makes my hair soft, shiny and manageable.  It's great for clients with textured hair who want to smooth frizz. 
                     Directions:
                              "Apply a small amount to clean, damp hair and style as usual, or smooth onto dry hair to tame and add shine".  Come in and pick some up today!

Yao and Summer graduated today!  I am so proud of you and will miss you both SO MUCH.  You are both are incredible stylists with the most amazing souls.  The world is yours. 

On the Floor:
Long day!  Day school from 830am to 430pm, then night school from 530pm to 930pm!  Feels good to work hard :)  Chi came back to see me for a highlight after I did her cut a couple weeks ago.  She is so happy with her color and booked with me again for another cut in another three weeks.

I recommended the new Awapuhi Wild Ginger Styling Oil for her and the last time she was in.  She's been using it every day and her hair feels amazing!  So glad shes happy with the product.

On the Floor:

Did a shampoo/blow dry for a woman taking her drivers license picture tomorrow.  She loved it so much that shes coming back to me in two weeks for another one!  I love making people happy :)

Focus of the week:
          "When I repeat it, I mean it". 
                    Studies show, if you say or do something three times, you are more likely to remember it.  Say the name of the product three times to your client, and put it in their hands when you are explaining to them how to use it, and your take home percentages will increase!

Events:

Makeup for Boris of Evolvh Organic Hair Care at a bridal show in Santa Clara this morning.
  Showed up early and was the only makeup artist for almost two hours.  :)  Smokey eyes to match the beautiful saris that were being modeled.  The 20 or so girls were so sweet and appreciative of my work!  Handed out a ton of business cards and am looking forward to working with Boris again in the near future!

Stepping Out to Celebrate Life tonight at the Marin Civic Center  :)
          Breast Cancer awareness runway show.  Most emotional event so far.  These women have overcome so much and to see them shine on the runway is beyond inspiring.  So touched to have been able to be a part of this.
          ...The fact that Sammy Hagar made a guest appearance doesn't hurt either :)

The Finale:  

Our models, followed by their doctors, followed by the fabulous women who put on the show, followed by mimes and can-can dancers!
