Where were we?:D Anyhoo I was around 16 or 17 when a friend’s mother encouraged me to go to beauty college, she even gave me the number to Flavio’s beauty college in Gardena. The rest was history. I went to beauty college all day from 9-5 and adult school from 7-9. I did that for what seem like eternity. The struggle was real. A couple of times I ended walking like 10 miles or more to get home because I missed the bus or something weird would happen, where I couldn’t get a ride. I got my hair license on Valentines. While people were getting candy and falling in love on that day..I had a accomplished the biggest goal In my life becoming a hairdresser! My license was more important to me than any box of chocolate. I can always walk to the store and buy me a snickers bar:D..my family were my models. I thought I knew it all. When I looked back at my mom’s hair I had  her hair kind of orange. Back then when people colored their hair light it was okay,  the tone didn’t matter. Now its all about the tone. If I were to color someone’s hair today like I did my mom’s back in the day they would go in hysteria.. LOL..I gave my brother a bald spot and cut my sister’s hair in a mullet..  I learned from watching others and some mistakes. I try to keep up with the latest hair trends as much as possible. My young clientele make me do fun blue and green colors on them. Not too long ago I think last week I did blue a color job. She did not follow my advice and went to the beach, got in the salt water and her blue came out. She texted me sounding upset. I had to force myself to let it go and focus on my new client today. If you don’t follow you stylist’s advice your at your own risk. I offered to do her hair again for free but she went somewhere else. What to do? Nothing. I did my best. I don’t stay up anxious stressed so much like I use too  because one person one isn’t  happy. This picture is how I feel at times, gray. But once I color my life with lipstick my eyes get bright and I can face the world along with the  hair complaints I get sometimes. It’s what I signed up for. It’s worth it:D …I’m rambling now… Exhausted its 2am…ZzzzzzzzZzzzzz…
