Shannon's Place

Working on it !!!! now gotta pick a paint color to cover that pink!!!

I have typed and erased and typed and erased......with a heavy heart and tears rolling down my cheeks it's time to speak my truth and let it all go It's time friends. Shannon's Place is closing. Ruthie decided to close the salon at the end of this month and with the world situation being as it is I'm going to go with the flow. I have been blessed to be apart of a industry that has allowed me to share so many things. This says it all It's just hair - I got to be a part... of your wedding! It's just hair - I was there for your child's first haircut. It's just hair - I was there for your first date. It's just hair - I was there for your school dance . It's just hair - I was there for their funeral. It's just hair- I was there for your graduation. It's just hair- I was there when you didn't like the way you looked. It's just hair- when you are getting ready to interview for your dream job and we needed to get you a full makeover and pep talk It's just hair- when all you wanted in the whole world is a hug from your hair stylist because you knew they'd give it to you with open arms! It’s just hair- when you just found out your expecting and haven’t shared the news with anyone else yet It's just hair- when you lost your job and didn't know what you were going to do It's just hair- when you were getting a divorce and just needed to feel better about yourself. It's just hair- when you had a terrible day and looked forward to being able to vent without being judged It’s just hair- when I came in after hours to get your hair done before a last minute early morning flight to make it home in time to see a loved one before it’s too late It's just hair- when you are about to go on vacation and can't wait to tell me all about it on your next visit It's just hair- when you bought your very first home It’s just hair - when I buzzed it all off and cried with you. It's just hair ... It's not "just hair" Never has been and never will be! I love all and miss all of you more then you know!! For all of my clients that have PrePaid please PM me so we can work something out I plan on looking into the codes for my area about setting up a salon out at my place. I will do some haircuts outside if we need to!!!! I also have contacted a few friends that used to work for me and they are willing to take on some clients. If you need help finding a stylist PM me!!! Seriously I loooove these Gals they were some of my first employees Please be patient while I take the time to respond to all of you. Be well.Be safe Here's to new adventures!!!

Yes- salon's will reopen- at some point- different for every state, & every salon. What can CLIENTS do to help salons navigate a new 'normal' you ask? Know you were missed terribly and your stylist is grateful for your return.... Know safety measures were created for all involved. ... Know the importance of coming ALONE, extra people in a salon compromises everyone. Know your stylist cannot physically work 16 hour days 7 days a week, rest is essential for all.. Know your initial services will take more time. Know that coming in sick IS NOT an option Know that walk-ins will not be an option for many salons- call the salon before you leave home. Know that rescheduling hundreds of clients will take time... Know that when you arrive you will need to wait until your stylist gives you the go ahead before entering the building, having your cell phone handy in your car will help considerably. Know that your stylist is thrilled to see you but doesn't want or need a hug, your presence is the best hug ever. Know that your health is the biggest concern. Know that your stylist/salon may choose to start services at a later date than the state you are in has allowed. Being respectful of that decision takes an unimaginable load off his/ her brain and heart. Know your stylist has already lost thousands of and has no desire to do anything that could make either of you sick. Be patient. Know that if your health is already high risk, you need to wait, your health is more important.. Know that a 'soft opening ' will be anything but soft. Know that your opinion of the entire situation won't change laws and rules necessary for everyone's safety , keep the conversation to hair and how we can make you beautiful Know that while trying to connect with your stylist there are hundreds of others attempting the same thing, responses will be slow coming as your stylist is preparing everything and answering everyone simultaneously Know, above all else, no one is more excited about your arrival than your stylist- help make it the best appointment ever!!! Together we can make this work safely for all #supportyourstylist

I absolutely understand how badly some of you think you need a haircut EVERY day I get multiple calls, text and messages. Please stop and think about the reality of what this is going to take to safety accomplish this. Are you ready for prices to go up? Cost of business Are you willing to bring me cleaning supplies? What about the down time between clients that is spent cleaning the salon so it is safe for the next client? No more quick bang trims while another perso...n waits. No more Haircuts in between the colors processing. Are you prepared to wear a mask the entire time I cut your hair? Are you willing to shower right before your appointment? Are you willing to pay my medical bills if I get covid 19 and the source is traced back to you? Things to think about as you rush back out there. Maybe YOUR taking all the precautions and your willing to risk it for a haircut. I have to risk it how many times a day? You trust me thank you for that!! Do you trust the stylist one chair away who is desperate for money taking a walk in off the street? Let's not be a part of the second wave just yet. We see how well that's working out for people who were forced to vote, protester's, front line workers, people calling this a hoax. I promise I have a list I will contact you when I feel like I can safely serve you. That's what I do, I'm in the service industry Don't get that confused with sacrifice.

Stay healthy and stay safe friends!!!!
