My Bout With Omicron

Hair Queen News

Thank you all for your kind words regarding my retirement later this year.

I had hoped to make it to my retirement without too many bumps along the way. Ha! I was exposed to Covid and boom! The Omicron variant got me, my husband, and maybe little Never.
  


My husband, Michael and I followed all the CDC and Kaiser guidelines. We isolated, quarantined, rested, read, hydrated, recuperated, cancelled, and rescheduled our lives.  We had mild symptoms and thankfully nobody we were close to before our diagnosis tested positive, including our grandchildren. Little Never had an upset tummy so I wonder if she had a little canine version of Covid.

I thought everyone I knew was really careful, including me, but I got it somewhere, so maybe not.  I did not receive a notification that I had been exposed, it remains a mystery.

Enough about Covid!

How are you? I know some of you have also been dealing with Covid. This past January I had more than one cancellation due to the virus.

We've all had to re-arrange our schedules recently

Speaking of cancellations and rescheduling, I will do my best to reschedule any of you that need to move your appointment due to the virus.

The best way to reach me is by text at 510-545-2955.  

Please respond as soon as you can when I offer an alternative appointment day and time. I often have several people on my waiting list and I want to accommodate all of you in a timely manner.  


Now, let’s enjoy the remainder of February and soon Spring will be here!

Spring is around the corner!

For future appointments, please call 510-545-2955 or email, suzanne@suzannevanhouten.com or click here to book online.

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 busy life and I am grateful t
