Sunday Sharing - My extensions, fake baking, and promotions

After 6 weeks, it was time to get the ol' weave tightened. They still looked GREAT but you gotta maintain these babies. Jennifer put some new blond ones in and threw some highlights on the top. Just when I thought I couldn't love them anymore BOOM they're the awesomest!

Also, note the eyebrows. Pello Salon and Spa has the best waxer this side of the Mississippi. It was easily the most pleasant waxing experience I've ever had, and my brows look so perfect Louis thought that Linda took mine off and painted new ones on. (I laughed at him, you can too.) Check out "waxing" under the services menu.

While I was getting my hair done a client came in for the spray tan. Oh. My. Gosh. The color was BEAUTIFUL. I've never seen someone look so natural brown and not orange in the least. They're offering a promotion right now: A full body Fake Bake session for $25.00. Print the coupon off here.

All other promotions are here.

*I want to make sure you guys know that no one pays me to say any of this stuff. These ladies saved my self esteem and I want to shout their talents from the roof tops.

Sunday Sharing - Sophie the Giraffe & Friends

Oi. Teething babies. It.Is.Rough. As Zofia's big ol' beaver teeth have been ripping through her gums, she has been one sad baby. They've bled, she cries, and she hasn't slept for longer than an hour and a half at a time in a week. Her beloved Sophie the Giraffe has been nommed like there's no tomorrow. I never thought there could be another teether that Zofia could like more than Sophie...

Until now. Enter Chan, Sophie's mushroom friend.

OH MUH GAH she loves him! She bites it, she gnaws it, she sucks on it... in fact, she does all of the things to him that she was doing to her poor mommy's bewbs. Is that why his head looks strikingly like a nipple? If so, GENIUS, if not, AWESOME coincidence. I could not possibly recommend this teether any more.

GET ONE! GET ONE FOR YOUR SAD BABY!!

One of my favorite sites, Mom's Milk Boutique, carries the Vulli line of Sophie and friends and they have very generously offered a coupon code just for you! So head on over, check out Sophie and Friends and enter Coupon Code: 10Sophie for 10% off your purchase.

Come back and tell me what your baby thinks of it. I'd love to know!

It's Giveaway Time!

Oh the pretty, pretty amber...

I'm so excited to announce my very first giveaway! After the success of the Athena Bee's coupon code (which is still valid through this giveaway!) Inspired by Finn generously offered to give away any one item from their site to one lucky winner!

As you recall (probably because I talk about it all.the.time.) I'm a rock-solid believer in the benefits of Baltic amber for pain management. At the risk of sounding too dramatic, I couldn't live without it due to my migraines, and it is a GODsend for teething babies.

Inspired by Finn is THE place to shop for Baltic amber and hazelwood jewelry.

Amber:

"When baltic amber is worn on the skin, the skin’s warmth releases trace amounts of healing oils from the amber. These oils contain succinic acid and are absorbed into the skin." It is useful for pain relief, boosting the immune system, restoring energy, maintaining wellness, and to break a cycle of chromic inflammation. Full information on the benefits of amber here.

Hazelwood:

"Wood from the Beaked Hazel (Corylus cornuta) tree has the medicinal property of neutralizing the body's acidity." It relieves or prevents ulcers, acid reflux, skin problems and is a GREAT tool to fight heartburn and nausea during pregnancy. Full information on the benefits of hazelwood here.
