Summer is Here!

Clearly, summer is here because as I perused my local Armstrong McCall for pink hair color only one out of three brands that carry it had some. Thank you, Paul Mitchell, for being well-stocked.  

This client asked for some pink tips in her long dark brown hair and I was more than excited to oblige (hairdressers love a good extreme makeover). I also put a couple subtle streaks of pink to balance out the tips. 

The great thing about doing your tips is when the dye starts to fade (as bright colors inevitably will) or you get tired of the color it can easily be cut out. Meanwhile, you have freakin' awesome hair to rock.

Like Father, Like Son

Unlike me, my husband does not enjoy getting his hair cut. He doesn't want to sit still for that long and he doesn't particularly like for his hair to be played with. Also, he likes to have longer hair than his job allows so that doesn't make getting his hair cut any more pleasant. 

My son doesn't enjoy getting his hair cut either, but this is generally the case with any young one. So, I am glad that I am a hairstylist and can just run around after him and not struggle with him at a salon. I am also grateful that he will have better hair than everyone else his age. What can I say? It's the truth. 

Anyway, in honor of Father's day which is approaching us in the near future, I have added some pictures of my son's first haircut.
