03.02.2022 Getting those good hair feels happening. Invest in your hair, it’s the crown you never take off

24.01.2022 My friend Mel has a 30 Day Reboot challenge and an 11 day reset challenge and is looking for 5 people each who want to improve their health. How does it work? Boosts metabolism, removes built up impurities, tastes delicious and watch for that extra energy boost! ... If you have an event coming up, you want to hit the reset button for spring or just clean up your habits this might be for you!

23.01.2022 She just cuts hair. By : Maggs Elizabeth She uses intense trigonometry to figure out the exact angle to cut your hair in order for it to lay correctly. ... She uses scissors sharper than knives very closely to her hands and fingers with centimeters to spare moving them quicker than your eyes can follow. She puts her body in odd positions to make sure she is level and can see each strand of hair she is moving, causing major damage to her body while she’s standing and bending for 12+ hours straight. She buys pays to sharpen her shears and gets new shears yearly that cost anywhere between $50-$2,000 with no payback, just to make sure your hair isn’t damage from the tug of dullness. She just colors hair. She uses chemistry to create a special formula to work with your hair, that most likely won’t work with someone else’s. She uses time that works against her, as two minutes too late will blow the cuticle in your hair and/ or fry it off. She strategically places mixtures to blur lines and create a subtle blend and/or dimension. She changes the combination for each client as mineral build up and pollution from water/environment/ products will react differently. She changes the color of your hair without knowing exact genetics which play a huge part in reaction to chemicals. She spends 3 hours moving her arms and bending her body into awkward positions to ensure perfection. She copies an image from the internet that was a 12 hour session with 5 stylists working, by herself in 3 hours. She just plays with hair. She spends 50% of her work day using tools as hot as your oven. She styles your hair exactly like that Pinterest picture that’s actually a wig. She constantly breathes in fumes from hair products and she can’t tell you the last time she didn’t have a hair splinter. She squeezes you in for a last minute style as she’s already been on her feet for 10 hours straight. She has her arm above your head moving it back and fourth for an hour to blow dry it flat. She just does hair. She spends an hour doing a 4 year olds hair because she can’t sit still but it’s mommy’s wedding day. Mommy cries when she’s done because her daughter looks beautiful. She spends 3 hours with a teenager who tells her every single person messes up their hair and she doubts this one will get it right. Suddenly brunette isn’t her color, she needs it back to blonde next week. She colors a 35 year olds hair who has been using box color for 15 and didn’t tell her beforehand, so the chemicals reacted and caused it to smoke making this process 6 hours that could’ve been 2. She’s now being yelled at by her next client for running behind. She wraps a 80 year olds hair in rollers for an hour to ensure she looks beautiful for her husbands funeral. Her daughter calls week later to thank you for making her mother feel beautiful. She works when she’s sick because there is no calling off when you work with personal appointments. She works when a family member is desperately ill in the hospital because her clients have gray showing and they have a meeting tomorrow. She misses her best friends surprise birthday party because it’s prom day. She works until 10pm because her clients hair reacted differently and nobody can figure out why. She gets woken up by texts at 3am asking if she can get someone in the book soon. She makes extremely close connections with her clients and spends all of her social energy on them. She doesn’t get vacation days because people need her in order to feel beautiful. She missed her child’s first soccer game because she was already scheduled two colors and cancelling would just be silly. She doesn’t work 8-4 or 9-5, she works first client to last with no real promise if she can make it home for dinner tonight. She also hasn’t eaten lunch the past three days because she’s had no time between clients. She spends hours researching new techniques and finding educational classes to attend on her one day off. Her life revolves around hair. Her brain constantly goes from math to science to social to psychology to client and back to math. She works hard physically, emotionally, mentally, psychologically. Every day. With no breaks and definitely no silence. But I must remind you, she’s just a hairstylist. She just does hair. I’m not sure who wrote this But wow!

18.01.2022 Happy Mothers Day to all you wonderful mums out there. Lets no forget to celebrate the ones who are no longer with us! Have a fab day ladies!!!

18.01.2022 Story of my life!!!

17.01.2022 Just a bit of humour during this time

16.01.2022 just for a bit of a giggle. I hope youre all staying safe and sane through this time.

16.01.2022 I just saw this on a post - right on the mark! (credit to the original person that posted this! For sayin it how it is!) Dear Dan Andrews, Scott Morrison (ScoMo), and Australian Education Union Victoria, Which one of you can advocate for teachers right now? On the one hand, you are quarantining people, telling them to practice social distancing and calling a state of emergency, while on the other hand you are telling teachers to operate with business as usual.... Your disrespect for the profession is astoundingnot one of you has given the rationale of keeping schools open for our primary purpose, which is education. Instead, it has been about the economy, about freeing up medical professionals and about keeping kids away from their grandparents. You all see us, it seems, as babysitters and quarantine officers. I am trained to be neither. Today I went to my workplace surrounded by 1700 people in close quarters. Then I drove home in record time (everyone else working at home means no traffic, yay!), BUT I didnt go to the gym and I didnt go to my hockey game because Im meant to be practicing social distancing in my personal life. My netball competition was canceled because apparently, the 3 feet rule in netball isnt enough for social distancing (pushing through crowded corridors at school is fine though!). You say schools shouldnt close down until there is a confirmed casebut you wont test people anymore unless they show symptoms, and have also informed us that children DONT show symptoms. I am stoked for my students that they are unlikely to get extremely sick from COVID-19 since children seem to be okay right now. But, in a wild turn of events, it appears that teachers are NOT the same age as children. We are adults, who are just as prone to sickness and viruses as all other adults. Teachers are working so hard right now to ensure that we can still run classes online and that all of our resources will transfer well to digital spaces. We are doing extra professional development, putting our marking and usual preparation on the backburner all to get an email from the Department of Education thanking us for being calm, and receiving mixed messages about whether all of this extra work is a waste of time or not. Do you know who IS advocating for teachers? Doctors. Medical professionals. Thousands of signatories are calling for you to take stronger action, including CLOSING SCHOOLS. And if youre not willing to do that, at least please cut the bullshit and tell us what you really think.

14.01.2022 May your day be filled with love and happiness as we celebrate this special day. Kylie

11.01.2022 Remember to wear your face mask to your appointment! No mask, No service due to new Covid safe plans. If you’re having a colour service I advice you to wear a disposable mask as I would hate for your pretty reusable mask to get ruined by hair colour.
