A few weeks ago I became Deb, the red head....briefly!...very briefly!...due to my attempt at hair color from the box....big mistake. However, the silver lining to my ill-fated vanity landed me in the capable hands of Katie who masterfully turned my disaster into a very natural looking strawberry-blonde. And yes, I'm lovin' my new look!
I'm also lovin' the hair salon/spa that I discovered right in my own backyard. I had noticed the sign before but only as I was whizzing by going one way or another. Tamara owns the Wavelengths Salon & Day Spa right here in St. Albans...and what a bit of heaven we found here! It's in a renovated farmhouse...so tastefully decorated right down to a cozy fireplace they keep cranking during the long winter months...super-friendly people....and lots of wonderful hair and spa treatments to choose from as well. And to think I would've probably never ventured thru these doors if not for that debacle in the box. Serendipity reigns again!
So once Mom got the royal treatment, my daughter asked if she might have a turn in the chair. Katie had a gentle color treatment that we decided would be perfect at lightening Heather's hair around her face....to blend in with all the summer sun streaked hair she has in the back. Heather also wanted very much to use her own money that she's been saving to pay for her first trip to the salon herself. My little girl is growing up!! Can I handle this??
Well, even if Mom couldn't, Heather sure could....and soon she had her moment of reckoning....hair cut, highlight, under the dryer, washed....and of course styled....
Yes, that's me in the mirror....snapping away with the camera! (And my hair a day after Katie made it beautiful!)
Ooooh! Look at those pretty highlights!!
The finishing touch....headband in place.....and isn't she lovely!
Thanks Katie, you're fantastic! : D
