pampering with beauty

quick tid bit of information for all you girls in the local area of sacramento, ca.
i asked several of my coworkers yesterday for last minute places to get my hair cut, colored, and styled. i had a business meeting today and wanted to look a bit refreshed. after purchasing a large amount of crucial and beautiful makeup from bare escentuals, i decided a new "do" was also in need. as a young, busy, working woman... as well as a student, it is always good to treat yourself in smart way. looking put together is very important, especially for a first impression in the business world.

bare escentuals has great makeup that lasts longer than most department store makeup. the investment in a higher ticket price is well worth it when your makeup can last 3x longer. plus, how could any girl resist any of the adorable colors and product in that store. i found myself consistently humming along to the music as i got the royal treatment. a great brand!

after calling several different places for a last minute appointment for today, i got in at spanish fly hair garage. i was excited simply because of the quirky name. i was recommended by a coworker to ask for her lady, and she just happened to be unavailable. i got set up with jenae and she was absolutely lovely. not only did i love the ambiance of the entire salon, it was low key and felt very luxurious at the same time. i felt bad for putting the pressure on jenae, since i was on a bit of a time crunch. jenae definitely pulled through and i would reccommend her to all my gal pals, or any guys out there looking for a cut. overall, i loved my experience there and even though i had two hurtful inches of dead ends to cut off, i love the cut and color of my hair. jenae even took the time to quickly teach me how to do beach waves with the curling iron as she was being rushed to do it. like them on facebook to follow along for upcoming events, and let them know alyssa from choosewant&need sent you over there :)


best,
alyssa
