Happy New Year!!!

We hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and New Year's and are geared up for a fabulous 2014!

We would also like to extend a warm thank you to 

Highland Avenue Restaurant 

for their wonderful New Year's Eve dinner and party at the Crossing!  

The food was excellent and a good time was had by all!

Now, Lets get down to hair business ....

A lot of my girls are going insane with all the fly-aways!  With cold weather comes static and fly-aways  which means you need something on your hair after you dry it - and don't over-dry it because it will also cause static. 

So before you blow-dry your hair, you should definitely use a leave-in spray conditioner - mostly mid-shaft to the ends, comb it through, blow-dry - then take a leave-in CREAM (pea size) and work that through your hair.   

You know I'm a true believer in leave-in conditioners.

Love you all and looking forward to a fabulous NEW YEAR!!

Good Hair Day to ya!

Santa's coming to town ....

Santa bulletin!!

LouLou's Corner - Downtown Hickory Loulou's Corner

Safe and Happy Holiday!!

And those of you looking for something to do for New Year's Eve ... don't forget to check out

Don't forget to support your local shops this Saturday!!

As you know, Saturday, November 30th is 

Small Business Saturday!  

Although we should be supporting the small businesses throughout the year, it is important to get out this Saturday and be reminded of all the wonderful things to be found from our local, smaller businesses.  

Of course, I can't post this without giving a shout out to my favorite establishments where you are sure to find many awesome gifts for yourself and your loved ones this holiday season ....

LuLu's Corner

Ella Blu

The Natural Olive 

Treasure's Vision

The Jewelry Exchange

From all of us here at the FB Salon, 

We want to wish you a very

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

It's all in the framework ....

and no, I don't mean the fabulous selection of frames you can find at Treasure's Vision lol ... I'm talking about the hair which frames your face.  

As you know, we always talk about going for a richer color in the fall with our browns and 'breds' but we have been incorporating some very fine, light highlights around the frame - just to give it that extra pop of brightness .... and I love it!!!  

It's tremendous!!
