“Unless a tree has borne blossoms in spring, you will vainly look for fruit on it in autumn.” ~ Walter Scott As a former pastry chef now living in the Concrete Jungle.

“I like my hair long, and I love my bangs. I love them because I can pin them back or keep the fringe with attitude.” ~ Cassie Steele Nothing like freshly dyed hair AND a new hair style!

“In order to have skin that glows and looks healthy and actually is healthy, you need to look at the whole picture and have a holistic approach to it.
