Last October, I wrote about visiting 1213 Hair Studio at the invitation of Kelly, the owner. She liked my photographs and wanted me – someone who uses irrigation as a car wash – to photograph her gorgeously chic salon.
My computer burned up from responding so fast.
I loved everything about this place, but it is pretty far away from our farm and with M.K. being a baby it was difficult to justify getting away just for my hair.
But if you have curly hair, you know just how frustrating it can be and this summer I’d grown sick of ponytails. My husband had grown really sick of my ponytails.
From Facebook updates, I learned that 1213 has a “Curly Hair Expert” and from photos of me, I learned that I needed one. And with my “baby” being over a year old… well, it was time to go back to that salon in the big city.
I liked it so much that I not only took a cell phone pic of myself but made Keith take photos of me at home… and then I splashed them unabashedly all over Facebook.
For anyone who has known me in real life they know that – for me – having silky, frizz-free, NORMAL hair is something to get excited over. I feel like it’s Christmas.
And so is this place.
I’m going back. Forever and ever. It can be my one day-away-from-home indulgence. I think all women need that sometimes.
I agree with you. My hairstylist comes to my house. (that would be Mildred) But at least twice a year I make a trip to town just for a pedi. Mildred gives the best ones too!
Hey! New hair! Same happy on the outside/just as happy on the inside face! I really like the new look, Jennifer. And the salon does look like a little slice of heaven.
Great pictures and love your hair (of course I have super straight hair that won’t hold a curl for the life of me!hehe! that’s how it goes, huh?)
Also loved the post on your hubby’s ring!!
Where is this place?
That place looks awesome. And I am with you…. I almost don’t know what its like to have NORMAL hair!

Beautiful salon…beautiful photos…beautiful hair! I totally agree that women need a “self” day! (And I don’t even have kids yet!)
Beautiful!
And you are right…..we all need some me time every now and then.
