You'll never see this again!



So, yesterday I had a fabulous experience at Pavlova European Salon & Spa in Traverse City where I received outstanding treatment from hair designer, Sherri Lynn Ricard. Poor Sherri, she worked her butt off! Actually, most hair stylists do not realize what they're up against when I walk through the door and I always tell them when I make my appointment that I will probably need more time than most because I have a ridiculous amount of hair. Seriously people, I have hair so big that I have zero peripheral vision when it's down.

Now, anyone that knows me is well aware that I've been struggling w/ finding a stylist since my best friend and kickin' hairstylist, Sarah Chile moved to Grand Rapids...5 years ago!! In fact, I've been so stubborn about the whole thing that I refuse to cut my hair until I plan a trip to Grand Rapids so Chile can make me over at her sexy salon, Design One Studios. But, I have this Girl Photographer's Get Together coming up in a few days and we are appropriately called the Hotties, so I must look hot, right? Right!

I wish I had taken one of those sweet "before" shots...you know, the sad face w/ mangled hair...but, alas I did not. Though, it must have not been all that bad, because Neil Morrison & Molly Hubbell booked their August 25th wedding with me just prior my appointment. I'm sooooo excited to work w/ them and come to find out I babysat Neil when he was a little dude...that was weird & cool all at the same time. I'm sure they would not even recognize me today as Sherri took on the great challenge of straightening the madness that is my hair. One hour and the strength of...well, a hair stylist, (she must have THE BEST arms)... well, just check out the hotness!!
Oh, and you will never see this again as I would surely end up in a rubber room from straightening my own hair and my family really needs me.
Thank you, Sherri! You rock!

That's HOT! I'd kill to have your hair girl!! (OK, maybe not KILL... but at least trip someone in the middle of the street with oncoming traffic.)

Hey Melisa!

Found your blog through Anne's myspace. :) You do beautiful work. And I see you're in Michigan, too. I'm in Hastings (Grand Rapids area) and am a fellow WPJA'er. :)

Nice to "meet" you!

I am enjoying looking through your site... I am finding I know a lot of your "clients" first of all Stacey Brothers sent me to this site, and Sarah used to cut my hair... and I know Molly and Neil! What a small world
