Allstar kid Andy!! Sits still in the chair and never moves his head…

Allstar kid Andy!! Sits still in the chair and never moves his head…He looks like an adult.

“Keep your head straight, Andy, so u get an even haircut,” says Sean Henry.

A tip for stylists and dealing with children’s first haircuts is try to talk to children prior to cutting their hair; gradually introduce them to the tools you migh use so they fell comfortable and know it’s harmless.

Tips for parents and you child’s haircuts is to have your child attend one of your haircut appointments so they can feel comfortable in the salon and with your stylist.  Then they can see mommy and daddy do it too ..it doesn’t hurt.   Honestly who can blame a kid for screaming and crying at their first hair appointment when all they see is a pair of scissors coming at their face from a complete stranger!

Life as a Hairstylist’s Apprentice – Holiday break was a Charm

My holiday break is over.  I had a full 3 weeks off school. Woo hooooo! Although, I was still doing book work during my travels!  I’ve been enjoying my down time snowboarding!  It’s so nice to be able to get outside and relax in the wintertime!!  I travled south for Xmas, to Charleston, South Carolina, to visit my family, and then off to Florida for New Years to see my lovely Grandma!!  I enjoyed seeing the different types of hair styles everywhere I went! I took a lot of photos for inspiration ;) . Now that I have returned from break perms are officially over. (yeessss!!!!) I’ll be starting up again with facials, pedicures and manicures!  Should be fun..I’ve never had a facial before so I’m looking forward to it.   I hope Everyone enjoyed your holidays and I’ll post photos from my travels :)

A Different Kind of Mani-Pedi in Rio

_MG_2364

So following my own advice to “Beautify” yourself this holiday, I went and got a Mani-Pedi at a small salon in Copacabana.  Just arranging the appointment was enough of a chore to justify the spa treatment, let alone a Christmas gift to myself.  First, I don’t speak Portuguese.  Second, I scheduled my appointment for last Tuesday.  When I arrive, apparently I mixed up the times.  My appointment was at 18:00, 6pm, which I thought was 7pm.  Why are we the only country (USA) that doesn’t use 24 hour time?
