When you graduate they decorate your station to match your personality or something you like. The girls thought it would be funny if they decorated it Chritmas themed, because for some reason whenever I am in a good mood and I feel like singing a song, the first one that ever comes to mind is "We wish you a Merry Christmas." They hate it- cuz I have been singing it since I started school- I know, Christmas Carols all year round!! What can I say, I don't mind it Christmas is my favorite holiday???! But my station was cute, and that was a clever idea!!

I'll give them that much!!

We also had a cotton candy machine for my party!! (pink too!!) Who has that It felt like "My Super Sweet Graduation Party!" And they let me play my Christmas CD's over the loud speaker the whole night!! Thanks Prescott EBS for everything and- especially for my mom, for making it SUPER SPECIAL!! It was so much fun!

COMING SOON

Oh my goodness, like twice in a row. I have done some fun work. And so much more, I will be back soon for updates!! Continue to check back!

Some "Amazing" Before & Afters

Before & After:

COLOR:

This is my sister-in-law

The picture on the left is her 3rd round of highlights for the summer (getting very blond and washed out on top), she decided to jump into fall and we warmed up her color and toned out the highlights with a level 6 Golden Brown with an auburn undertone to add warmth to the color.

To see more Before's of her highlights: scroll down to my previous post "Befor & After's" when we put the highlights in.

Both look great, but it is fun to see a switch up from a "summer" style to a "fall" style.

Before & After:

HAIRCUT:

My friend Mandy wanted a short "full of volume" cut:
so here is a just above the shoulder length bob with layers and face framing.

Before & After:

COLOR & CUT:

This is one of our Esti's. (a student)
She wanted to go platinum, get rid of the gray and the little bit of yellow color at the ends. I talked her into a cute little bob too, and she loved it. Tried to talk her into a little bit of a side bang but she likes it all back, still cute though.

So for the color me and Elise bleached her out with 30 volume, for 20 minutes and then toned dwn the brass with "purple" silver shine shampoo.

JUST FOR FUN:

(More of my random work.)

Here I did a medium length haircut with long layers and "swoopy" bangs.
