Good morning, lovely friends! How are you? I hope you are well.
Yesterday I went to get my hair cut and colored and highlighted and styled by my cousin, Deana. We’ve been friends since as long as I can remember making the trip from Illinois to Tennessee as a young child. Who knew that one day I’d be living in this state and sitting in Deana’s chair getting my hair done? So glad to know her as family and as my hair wizard!
Every time I go to get my hair done, we have fun visiting and catching up on family while Deana curls my hair and I just feel pretty when I leave. Yesterday, was no exception. I don’t take the time to curl my hair every day; but I certainly do enjoy the way she styles my hair on hair wizard day.
What about you – do you take time daily to “do” your hair? I usually just wash and blow dry mine and then spray it with hairspray. When Audra got married, Deana did the most fabulous up-do for me and it stayed looking picture perfect the entire wedding and beyond.
When I arrived at the salon yesterday, Deana told me she had taken a new full time job! Oh my, the joy I felt for her! And then the sadness I felt for me, because – I so like how she does my hair. This new job just fell in her lap and I am so happy for her. And I’m happy to report that she is still going to work me in around her new job. Do you hear angels singing?!?
Since it’s been a while since I shared a current picture of me, I thought I’d share one from yesterday. It was finally cool enough in the morning to wear a ribbon sleeved sweater that I really liked and I snapped a picture of me and my curls and the sweater.
I hope that you have a good rest of the day! I hope that you find something that will bring a smile to your heart.

I met my hairdresser probably over ten years ago. At that time, she was recommended to me by a friend, and now she is my friend! I look forward to seeing her every four weeks for my cut and color. We always have big belly laughs. It's the perfect time to recharge and feel pampered.
I do my hair everyday, but wish I had hair that I didn't have to do every day. lol. My hair is thin, and since children has become curly. So it needs tending to each day. Thankfully, I've discovered silk pillow cases and because I wash my hair every fifth day, most days I can just brush and restyle without using heat.
Your hair looks great and I LOVE the sweater!
This post was a breath of fresh air. 🙂

Karen,
I loved hearing how your hairdresser has become your friend. If money were no object, I'd go weekly! Five weeks for me between color…
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing about the silk pillowcase! Bless you!
