I must manifest things to happen...

Well, I have gone and admitted it. I make stuff happen. When I was 15 I said I would own the salon one day. I made that happen. I said one day I won't be highly allergic to cats anymore, somehow that happened! I have been wanting family to move to MI my whole life, and guess what?? I have finally gotten that to happen, too! My cousin Erin will be moving to GR in the next few months (as long as her house in CA sells), and with that, I am assuming the rest of the family will follow shortly after. Muahahaha, my plan is coming into fruition! Carly, you know you are next! We can always call the salon Carshelles down the road. (just kidding staff, don't freak out!)

So, as everyone knows, I get the keys to my new salon June 1st. I am pretty much freaking out on the inside right now with excitement. FINALLY!!! I have been waiting a long time for this! I have known over a year that we were moving, and it has dragged on forever it seems. It is sort of like having a new child oddly enough. One never knows what hurdles will be encountered along the way! I am so thankful for all the staff and clients support. The stylists know how crazy I have been with trying to get everything situated, that they took on the role of getting everything ready for the grand re-opening, while I make sure we are for sure ready by June 7th, opening day. I couldn't ask for a more amazing staff. They are getting together to make signs/decorations, treats, and a raffle for everyone. Can you believe how awesome they are??

I am very lucky. It seems as though everything does happen for a reason. It took getting a new staff a few years ago, which was scary at the time for me..change can be scary, and it turned out so much better than expected. I have learned you have to have people on your team with the same vision, or else it just won't work. Our vision is basically to help others when help is needed, listen to our clients, make people feel good about themselves, and respect one another.

The new salon is not just my own touches. Every stylist had an opinion and hand in getting the new salon together. From paint colors, to stylist stations, from seating, to decor.....we all told each other what we would like to see! Get ready folks! It's finally going to be The Hair Co. now, not The Hair Co. from 30 years ago with 4 different owners taking over the same salon....hehe

  1. I sensed you were posting. ;) I can't wait to get there and see the new salon! I'm very excited for you. Not just because you'll have the new place, but because you have such great people working for (with) you now. Support is good!
