*Tap, Tap* Is this thing on????

What have I gotten myself in to?? Was the first thing that popped in to my head my this week, when i finally started realizing how big of a project this was going to be. Am i being negative here?? Nah, well on that note...I would be Tara, the "new-by" to the business, the baby of the salon, one of the "apprentices" at Byu-ti, I always seem to find myself in awe of the girls I work with. They are all so creative and literally AMAZING at everything they do! They are such a pleasure to be around and I am so lucky to have them as my mentors. Everyone brings something different to the table. First of all, everyone of us have such different personalities, most of us are a bit crazy. (But I guess when you're in this business you kind of have to be.) We all come from different back-grounds and have our own stories. But in the end we have quite a few things in common, art, hair, and drinking (which by the way, is how this whole thing started).

Basically Andi already explained the whole Renee's thing and how this fantastic idea all began. And I'm going to have to say that as we were leaving the bar that night I was right there with her in thinking that this was just one of those ideas we'll put in the back of the closet. So when I got to the salon the next morning Lesley started talking about it again. About how it was such a great idea (duh!), what steps we were going to take next and that she was completely stoked to get started on it. And I tell ya, that Lesley, she's a pusher! But in the best possible way! I think it was by the next day that Andi had already gotten the ball rollin'. And better yet, got everyone at the salon on board! I'm so excited to get this thing moving!! Being at the salon completely inspires me!

Today we had a bit of free time. So Dawn decided to bust out the curling iron and throw out a few fancy do's on us. Lucianna got the oh-so lovely mile-high 80's bangs. And for me, Farrah Faucet hair. I'm going to have to say that I felt more like Peggy Bundy than Farrah. Especially after I went to the car and pulled out a neon pink belt. All that was missing was purple spandex pants and some heels. As we were sitting there though, we just started brainstorming on how many different ways we could take our decades. Arent you all excited to see what happens... :)

I'm a bit nervous, a little intimidated, and completely excited at the same time!! Well I guess thats it for now, till next time....
