Hot New Trend Alert!....Be Yourself

BY SAM BONNER

As a hairstylist, if I had one wish for my clients, it would be for them to really love who they are. All too often I hear the self criticism and insecurities of truly amazing women. Although I work in an industry that is defined by trends, fashion,and what the magazines decide looks good this season, I'd like to challenge women to look past these things . Personal style is an important part of self-expression but it is not who we truly are. We are not our looks and we should not be defined by them. More importantly, We should not be defined by what other people think we should look like. So many people are not having fun at the salon. They are just going through the motions, almost like a four week ritual they are obligated to. This is not an oil change people! This is art and YOU get to be the canvas! How Fun is that!?!?

I'd like to propose that the trend for this season is to truly be you! Try something you've always thought looked great on other but were convinced you couldn't wear for yourself. Step out side the boundaries you have created for yourself. People evolve on the inside and it should reflect on the outside. Who you truly are is an amazing, beautiful person. There is no one exactly like you! It is an honor for us to have someone as extraordinary as you as a guest at our salon.
