30 Amazing Years...

 

I'm celebrating  30 Years

in this amazing career as a Hairstylist!

 

It's unbelievable that it has actually been 30 YEARS!!!

When I was young I always knew that's what I wanted to do when I grew up. I was doing hair with my friend in the bathroom of my childhood home when I was 12 and I remember one day cutting my brothers' friends hair...it was taking so long that he had to leave to go to wrestling practice with it only halfway done, and came back

for me to finish afterward!

 

I moved to Arizona from Nevada when I was in the middle of my Junior year of high school.  That move turned out to be the best thing that had happened to me so far, and the catalyst for where I am today!  Although at the time, I thought my life was over, lol!

 

Later that year I learned that my new high school offered a vo-tech program where I could go to Cosmetology school, while still in High School!  Oh, it was ON!!  That was all I could think about, all I wrote about in school projects, everything was about getting accepted into this program.

I quit the track team and got a job, then started saving for school and a car.  I began school that summer and graduated cosmetology school two days before High School graduation at the end of May in 1992!

 

 I've worked in many salons and have

been a salon owner. 

I was blessed with being able to stay at home with my babies and go back to the salon when I was ready. 

I have worked on a cruise ship, and did countless heads of hair at home!

I was an educator for a leading haircare brand and traveled around the country learning, teaching, and sharing knowledge of this fantastic industry.

 

I have grown up behind the chair!

 

The amazing people I have worked with and learned from in my career has been one of the greatest gifts and has made for lasting, deep, and lifelong friendships.

Not many people stay in the same job for such a long time...how this work has changed and evolved  with me and for me  over the years has kept my passion and love high.

It has also been back-breaking, feet aching, and heart-wrenching!!

The time and life, and connection and relationships I have shared with my guests and

co-workers is endless...

 

Over the last 30 years, I've gotten more than I have been given, I truly feel like I have received so much more than I gave..

The blessings have been countless and I am so full of gratitude and awe!

 

This career has been a safe space for me to learn, evolve, create, grow, and dream!

 

I have been so blessed to work with some of the best and most talented in this business, in some of the best salons, with the best clients/guests a lady can ask for, and with the best Haircare Products.

 

To say I am full of Gratitude just does not seem to do it justice.

 

I am

What's Next...

 

There is so much change on the horizon...

 

 

With my youngest daughter graduating from High School in just two weeks, I will be soaking up every moment I can!

Soon I will have sent both of my amazing girls off to college and my nest

will be empty!

 

I have so many monumental and emotional changes coming up and lots of dreams, some are so exciting and some super scary!

 

 

 

Many people retire after 30 years in a career.

Although I am not retiring, I am really looking forward to some new adventures,

changing things up a bit, and spending some more time in a warmer climate.

 

I will be sure to keep you abreast of when and how these

dreams settle into reality.

Thank you for taking the time to walk down memory lane with me!  Oh what an adventure it has been! 

And thank you for celebrating this milestone with me!

 

I will continue to move forward and always spread the love!
