I had a conversation a couple of weeks ago with a client who is struggling with what products to use in her service arena. She is not the only client I have had this conversation with. In fact, I would not hesitate to say, I have this conversation at least 1X per week. After much […]

For several years now, I have religiously taken care of myself by getting a massage 1x per month and a facial 1x per month. It’s easily justifiable as I know the value in both. Both physically and mentally. In the beginning, I was getting my facial by one girl and my massage by another. My

My last article on bits was packed with information “about” bits. What effort goes into the making of a bit and what amount of quality control is put into assuring the bits you use are safe, I’m sure differ from Mfg. to Mfg. I can only speak for the Mfg. I represent. Busch. I am

When I grew up in my salon, I did not use an efile. I didn’t know how and as you have heard from me many times, we just didn’t have the resources or education. And quite truthfully, it just wasn’t something we did.  Efiles were primarily used in podiatry practices only. The industry has changed

I must be from another world. I see things that people do or say and I wonder if anyone else is aware of the idiocracy. An everyday example would be this; I go to the local sub shop. I order my sub and notice the person who greets me and takes my money is the

I can’t completely remember her face, and I certainly don’t remember her name. I do remember it was the early 90’s and how I never, to this day could wrap my brain around what happened. She called for a bikini wax. As usual, we recommended she wear something old in the way of panties or

Over 30 years ago, a lady walked into my Salon. She was referred to us by another Salon in the area who didn’t offer the service she was requesting. Little did I know, I not only would gain a new client….I gained a beautiful soul, friend, family…whatever. And, I gained extended blessings by getting to

For my husbands 60th birthday, I surprised him with guitar lessons. He’s had a guitar since we met in 2004 however, he’s never played it. I thought it would be something fun for him, as he never really did get a chance to retire. Working with me at Centre For Beauty has more than consumed
