Isla's Curls

Hairqueen News

Early on following the stay-in-place order this little poem came to me about my sweet little granddaughter.

When people ask me what I will be doing once the order is lifted, I answer: I will be spending my time holding my shears and Isla, but not at the same time, unless I am giving her her first haircut!

Isla’s Curls by Glamma

Oh how I miss that mess of curls

That flip and flop

And twirl around

My darling little Isla’s crown

Silky, soft, fine and free

Framing her dear little face

Wildly going this way and that

And always more crazy after a nap

Her hair bands and brushes help quite a bit

And one of these days when her parents say yes

I will pull out my shears

And tidy it up

With my best Glamma skills

Beyond a hair brush

Happy Mother's Day to all the mums, moms, mama's and ma's out there.

Distance hugs and kisses to all.

Love, Suzanne

Endings and Beginnings

HairQueen News: I celebrated a big milestone, forty years of being a hairstylist and 25 years as a business owner. I was planning to completely retire but then I decided to keep the “tip of my scissors” in for a while longer. 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. ...
