Moving along...

Here are the old ugly walls...

Some before shots

This was pretty close to the beginning... Had already started to investigate the paint as you can see.

In the mean time...

While you patiently wait for all of the prettiness that is/will be Holiday Hair Studio, let me show you the these beauties! Just got a few pics back of the shoot from a couple weeks ago. I posted an iPhone pic a while back but these are the realio dealio... And they turned out stunning! Wouldn't you agree? Photos by Brandon Witzel, Styling by Sarah Van Raden, Hair & Make up by me (Robin Carlisle)

huh?

did this really work? I have no idea what picture it even is... Just thought I would try to upload something before I even worte anything because I din't want to rant off in frustration again.

OK SOOOO...

Not so successful was the uploading of photos!!! GRRRR. Lame. Sorry there will be no high notes here, just a water sob session about how f-ing frustrated I am right now at what seams to be malfunction on all levels!!! Someone please tell me what Mercury is up to these days... Because I am sure it is no good! I have been mac-less for the past how ever long it's been--since my powerbook broke down and I have been using a PC and I am so sorry to my dear dears who so gracoiusly gifted it to me but...AHHHHH!!!!! I f-ing hate it!!!! And I am quite certain it hates me too, why else would it taunt me soo! And make stupid fun of my brains all the time!!!!???? So this blog, as a result of me being practically computerless, is slowly dying... No pics of my sweet lovely Holiday (sad, sad face) and as you have seen form previous posts my iphone defaults to WAY too big a picture... And that is nerdy as well... For now I am left to apologize for my apologies... Better days ahead!

A lot has happened...

Since last I wrote. And my hope for this entry is to share it with you all. This may sound like a boring todo list, but make no mistake people... This is a to-DONE list!!! And for me, the horse behind (in this case) the laptop, who is ever so anxiously chomping at the bit to run this race already, jotting this post down and seeing the progress I have made writen down in front of me can only help put things into persective.

So now, before I go further into the part where I am soooo friggin' ready for it to just be "there" already, I'll reflect on how far it's come. Shall we do it in list style? Will this blog format allow for a list style? let's just find out now shall we?
