Hi, welcome to............"

Ever want to know something personal about you hairstylist? Read on and you just might find something out.

Hello there, how are you?

What can I do for you today?

Let me introduce myself.  I am the hair cutter lady.  I live in and work in Lakewood at a salon that was well established in this city before franchised ones tried to take over.  My employer IS considered a "chain" but I feel that, unlike our competitors, we are  more personable and are not the haircutting robots you will find elsewhere.

A little history about myself.....I am a native of this fine city.  I just can't bring myself to leave.  Every time that thought comes to mind I take a drive down Detroit Ave. and gaze at all the wonderful improvements and additions this city is giving us.  I love working in Lakewood as well.  Meeting new people everyday is something i look forward to as i prep myself for that day's shift.

The loyalty of my customer base is comparable to the loyalty that the Browns fans are often described as having.  Let me tell you something, when I see a customer on my day off at the grocery store with my hair all a mess, no makeup on, and trying to control small children that do not understand the concept of NO MORE CANDY, i think to myself, "well,there goes a client I lost."  Then the clouds part and the sun shines and that customer walks in the next day looking for me to help them feel better.  Therefore, just like our sports fans, my customers support me at my best and my worst.  Thank you for that.  Thank you a million times.

In a perfect world,  I would occupy my time by leaping with a single bound from client to client in my long flowing black cape imprinted with pink sugar skulls performing services to enhance and uplift the residents of my hometown.  Around this time is when my alarm clock starts going off (yes i have dreams about work).  I can only hope that this dream would sometime come true, but in reality I only have 6 to 7 hours shifts five days a week to spread my love of educating you beautiful people on the many ways to make you grooming time eaiser and shorter so that you can too follow your dreams.

All in all, I love my family, my job, and my city.  I hope to one day meet you if I haven't already.  I hope I have dropped enough hints for you to come see me.  If you think you have and give it a shot, mention to me that you read this on the Lakewood Patch website and there might just be a discount in it for you!!!!

See you soon!
