How do you measure success?

Posted by Nathalie on January 23, 2008

I was going through my calendar and noticed that things have REALLY picked up over the past few months. Since July 2007, I’ve picked up 38 new clients alone! Now, for a big time hair stylist, I know this isn’t much, but for me, it’s a big deal. I just wanted to take the opportunity to say thanks to all of my beloved clients for trusting me with your hair and being so fun! I enjoy everyone I’ve met through this profession and would LOVE to throw some type of party once I get up to like 50 new clients this year. We’ll see what happens.

Thank you to… (Sorry if I have your names spelled wrong!!)

Below is one of my favorite sistars, Lexi. She’s a brilliant student at UCF and a great friend of mine. The best thing about her is that she lets me experiment on her all the time. Shame on me though, there’s never a camera around when I do her hair, until just recently.

Lexi’s been going natural over the past year and has been trying out braids during her transition phase. She FORCED me to cut off some chunks of permed hair, but there’s still plenty left to go.

She’s very creative in her choice of styles. The cornrows provide a quick and easy solution for a hairstyle while she’s transitioning from permed to natural hair. In between braids, she usually sports the “braid-out” which is cornrowing your hair after a shampoo, and unraveling them (when the hair has dried), leaving a loose, natural-looking style.

Much love to you Lexi, I told you you’d be on the page!
