Being a Good Neighbor




On Sunday March 30th, the staff at the little salon invited 6 women from the FAITH program in the Rosemary District to have their hair colored and cut. The FAITH program is sponsored by the Salvation Army. It is for families, mostly single mothers, to help with housing and to assist them in becoming financially self sufficient. We started at 9am with coffee, juice and baked goods from Panera. By 10am we were in full swing with all chairs full. By about 12 noon we had more than a full house, I was even putting highlights in Alisa's hair while she sat on a stool at the color bar. Some of the women brought their children, which added to the "bursting at the seams little salon". We all had a great morning. There were many "transformations", from basic brown's to beautifully highlighted hair, cuts that had a better shape and over all much healthier looking hair. Here a few pictures of the staff and FAITH women.
