Seattle is BEAUTIFUL! Looks like all this rain is good for something!

We are all settled and adjusting! Funny how good news spreads fast. My daughters, friends mom's friend has curly hair.(did you follow that) They were talking and found out about my specialty and about the Curl Gala. What do you know... The friend of the daughters friends mom(Carol Ann) decided she would host a Curl Gala in her home with 10 of her friends!!! It was great!
Carol Ann was a great host, she had lunch set up. Had a great house with plenty of room and all the necessities for educating on curly styles.
Thanks to all who attended and to Carol Ann for her efforts in making it happen! In addtion to learning some new things and raised $110 for Locks of Love bringing our total donation for 2008 to $220!! Happy days!

Hi Nicole,

I am sitting here in Purcellville, VA scanning the websites that my new employer has worked on. I came across your book and this blog via SuPro Creations.

I just relocated to Virginia from the Pacific Northwest after living there for 13 years. We were in Anacortes up by the San Juan Islands. I would be glad to share some of my favorite things to do with you if you so desire !

I loved learning about your passion for Curly hair. It took me all of the past 12 years to find a gal who knew how to do my curly hair and I had to leave her behind. If you are able to take on a new client the next time you are here in Virginia do please let me know. I'd love to meet you.

Blessings in the West!
