New talent stylist transitions from front desk coordinator to stylist!

Alex Thibodeau new talent stylist at Indulge Salon

Alex will be training on advanced levels with Kimberly Acworth owner of Indulge Salons. Alex will start taking clients July 19th. She will be available for hair color retouches, color balances, highlights, balayage, and haircuts. Call 717.846.4424 for an appointment.

When I first met Alex, I was impressed with her smile, intelligence and attitude towards others. She came to us via taking a break from college in center city Philadelphia to York, County taking a position as a front desk coordinator which means that she is a liason with customers to the stylists. She scheduled appointments, waved her magic want to squeeze in our VIP customers and overall helped make sure East Market Street ran efficiently while she was on the schedule.

What does it take to achieve your dreams? Desire, Passion and good ole’ fashion goal setting determination! Those are the attributes that our newest talented stylist, Alex Thibodeau has achieved at Indulge Salon.

Over time hanging out with the creative stylists we have, she caught the beauty bug. One day, she called me and said that she signed up for Empire Beauty School. I said ok. I felt like I was pregnant waiting for her to give birth to the beauty school license. 9 – 10 months later our beaming stylist has emerged. Yay! We are very proud of her that she has set her sights on becoming a stylist. She had a dream and has achieved it July 13, 2016.

If you have ever encountered a budding new talented stylist, you could very well see purple hair color one day, pink another and when they get tired of that multi- shaded hue becomes a version of a blonde. It’s crazy but fun. We feel it a privilege to help our new

                   ” It’s my birthday!”

One of the staff members mentions on a daily basis “It’s my birthday!” We frantically check our schedules to see if we were off and are relieved that we didn’t forget her birthday. Casually we remind her

Indulge Salon Gift Cards

that her birthday is in August. I bet when she is older she will be doing the same thing. When I mean older, we mean 80’s or 90’s. By then she can have her birthday everyday if she wants.

My point is that everyday is someone’s birthday. We never made a birthday in our house a big deal when I was little yet I secretly wanted a birthday party. Last year, my staff surprised me with a birthday party at the salon with friends, clients, staff and family. I was shocked and they were too because they sneakily had this planned with my nurses at the house , the rest of the team, my family whom had either driven in or flown in to be part of the surprise. Let’s just say when I arrived that I was in the middle of my intense work day from home and I wasn’t looking cute like I do for work at the salon. My hair wasn’t done, my makeup wasn’t done, I was still in my pj’s with zero undergarments. I mean I was up early trying to get my day underway. I certainly didn’t think I was to be arriving at my own birthday party.

              Surprise birthday party!

One of my team members, Chasta Strouse came over to pick up some things and asked if I was getting a shower? Odd that she would ask me about that but I blew if off and then I received an emergency call to come to the salon which of course I did. It was great! I did keep my coat on because  you know why!

The point is a birthday party makes you feel the love from family and friends. I never expected anything. They had beverages, cake with lots of icing, presents, and just lots of hugs. It was a great birthday.

The best birthday gifts are those that really mean something to the person that is receiving. My grandmother always gave me gifts that she would like herself. I love giving gifts that are special such as an Indulge Gift Card or special  Indulge Pure Originals Honey Almond Lotion. Giving special gifts make me happy when they mean more to the other person. Giving the gift of eyelashes to a woman that can’t grow them would really be special because now she will feel better about herself. Highlights are great birthday ideas because its a transformation from blah to boom fabulous! Learn about our skin care at www.skincareformatureskin.com and indulgesalon.com/skin-chemical-peels

If you need ideas, we are here for you at Indulge Salon, York, Pa. Will today be your birthday?

Prepare your beach hair with a new haircut. Laying on the beach, one must have cute hair trussed up with pins, bands or whatever we can find to keep long hair off the suntan lotion. I get it. Try one of our cute styles that we learned from Anthony Cress. Anthony is one of the Global educators from Wella come in from Newport, California on June 28th. 6 hours of demonstrating new haircutting techniques on models and blow dry styling tricks. The trends this summer season are all about ceating texture within the haircut. We can do these new texturizing techniques to eliminate bulk but leave the length, shorter hair that looks super textured, and dry haircutting which is still the rage.

                               Balayage Highlights

Hair color is more blended this year. Balayage highlights are showing a darker base with the highlights that are natural looking with golden blondes or a contrast with a neutral sandy color. Butterscotch blondes, golden blondes and platinum blondes are super pretty for beach selfies. Schedule with Zach, Tracy or Taylor. The trick is leaving enough time to apply our hand painted highlights then leave enough time for a haircut. Bring some pictures of what you like. We will give you a color consultation prior to your service. We will also give you an idea how much your color and haircut will cost before we start. If the cost doesn’t fit in your beauty budget we can adjust the services to accommodate. Enjoy $25 off your first balayage with us over $150.00. schedule here.
