Take it away Sharona!

The weather is getting hotter and so are the color trends for Summer 2013!  

The hot shades of summer are Blonde, Red and Bronde.  Yes, Bronde.  This is the perfect shade between Brunette and Blonde - great for our Brunettes as we do toned highlights to give that natural, sun-kissed look to your color.

Our Blondes should incorporate some soft golden shades that will make your look pop and for our Redheads, look for copper or strawberry blonde shades.

Moisture, Moisture, Moisture!

With the weather getting warmer - you need to wear your hair more natural with less less blow drying and less heating elements on your hair - which means you need to put something on your hair to keep it moisturized and healthy during the summer.  So I highly recommend a leave-in CREAM Conditioner - this will keep your hair moisturized and less frizzy allowing you to go more natural.

We have everything you need - even if you are not a customer at the FB Salon! :)

We'd love to help your hair!

Go see The Great Gatsby!

It is quite the production!  absolutely brilliant! Even in 3-D!  The music is fantastic - the way they bring that era to a current listening audience!  The soundtrack is sure to be a hit!  and Leonardo di Caprio is so perfect for this role -- like they've transported an actor from the 1920's and dropped him in this production - but Tobey Maguire is sure to get recognition for his role - all around great cast and beautiful movie!

..... and I can't forget Iron Man 3 -- the best one ever!!  Great summer movies !!

Express Yourself !

Summer is approaching and we wanted to let you know about some things we are offering now ....

for my girls .... 

Express Keratin Smoothing Treatment!  For busy girls that can't take the time for the full treatment - this is ideal for you!  2.5 hours and you're frizz free for your summer fun!  Not to mention you are giving your hair a treat by infusing it with natural keratin.  Imagine, 6-12 weeks of blow-dry bliss!  No flat-iron needed - or let it air dry without the fear of the frizz factor raising its ugly head.  

and for my boys ....

Do not go to the pool or the beach with that monkey on your back ... we are now offering back waxing!  Check it out!  Back waxing for men is very common - and it's much better than shaving since you get the hair at the root.  You can get up to six weeks out of the treatment ...

go Primal!

The Primal Blueprint Diet, Cookbook and Sauces that is .... I got into this around the same time I started with Crossfit and let me tell you, of all the diets I have tried this has been the most effective.  Although it takes a lot of food away (bad carbs), it gives back so much more (good fats)!

Once again, not for everybody ... but if you want to take that weight off for the summer you have to lose those CARBS!  And I mean all of them!

Crossfit is the bomb!!!

Hey there bloggers... as most of you know,  I am all about fitness .... and let me just say there is finally someone and something that kicks my butt!!  His name is Kent Stamey, owner of Crossfit Hickory!  I was very apprehensive about going in the beginning - but I must say it has been the best 10 weeks of training I have ever had.  The atmosphere is awesome - everyone there is extremely helpful and knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition.  You can do their 'on ramp' introduction and continue on with their daily workouts, do their open gym or get a one-on-one trainer.  They also have an onsite massage therapist, Mary Starnes, who does amazing body therapy!

you must dine here ....

While Backstreets Bar and Grill is by far my favorite restaurant in Hickory, NC Backstreets of Hickory, the new Highland Avenue Restaurant run by Meg and Robert Locke offers a wonderful dining experience!  Reminds me of being in Boston with that open-air feel and great views all around.  I just found out they are doing a brunch for Mother's Day with seatings at  10:00, 12:00 and 2:00 - reservations only so get your table booked!  P.S.  I'm looking for a mother to take!
