HairQueen Help

Dear Clients and Friends,

I know it is hard to wait for your postponed salon appointments and we miss you so much!

I took some pictures of my hair with velcro rollers to give you a visual that I hope helps you during #stayhome.

I encourage you to get out your velcro and/or hot rollers and have fun. (This is best for freshly shampooed hair, but you can throw them in on day two as well.)

Shampoo and condition hair
Towel dry gently
Add styling product
Section hair and blow dry with a round brush or vent brush if it's easier for you
Add velcro rollers or hot rollers and leave in for up to 30 minutes
Remove rollers and run fingers thru hair for a soft hold
Enjoy feeling coiffed
Contact me if you have questions and or need help.

Bonus, properly styled hair will last for several days! Here I am on day two. I did not reset my hair, but you could for more volume. First, spritz with a leave in conditioner or styling mist. Do not use water. I recommend Primer 11 by Framesi or Very Sensitive Mist by No Nothing. I have both of these for sale, as well as velcro rollers, if you wish to purchase them and do a store pick up.

Retirement Life

HairQueen News On October 1 2022 after 40 plus years of working full-time I stepped way-back from the salon chair and way-into retirement life. As the date grew closer, I was and still am all over the place with so many feelings and uncertainties about how to navigate this next stage. To mark the occasion of my retirement I had a wonderful party, please see the previous blog, Endings and Beginnings. Next, I went on a celebratory trip which included a week sailing the Atlantic Ocean on the Queen Mary 2. So exciting! Crossing the Atlantic Ocean Gala Time Upon my return I am turning my attention to what it means to be an older, wiser, experienced, master of my trade. As space in my life opens up I will take the opportunity to grow Swans Studios, to mentor, coach and consult within and beyond the salon industry. With more free time I will enjoy my granddaughters, my family, friends and hobbies. I know from many of you that the retired life is a ...

Endings and Beginnings

HairQueen News: I celebrated a big milestone, forty years of being a hairstylist and 25 years as a business owner.

This decision means I am free to step into a new phase of life as I gradually let go of my wonderful salon career. We had a party — it was fantastic! I loved every minute. My heart overflowed as my clients, colleagues, and family helped me mark this major career milestone. ...
