All Out of Love

All Out of Love

Oh the joys of knowing some tricks of the trade!  
If you've got thin, fine hair, then today's trick may just be what you've been looking for.
Clip On Extensions!!!
When you see how natural these extensions look, 
how much thicker and fuller Tara's hair looks,
you will jump on board.

Here we are in my old basement.  
We lovingly referred to it as 
"The Basement Beauty Shop".
Right next to our 1979 Jeep, dirt bikes, work shop, Rip-Sticks, and bicycles,
was where I did some magic from time to time.
  So get a kick out of the duct work and overall
"basement" feel in the background that somehow is just shy of a cool backdrop. 

(Notice the length & thickness of Tara's hair)
This is Tara who is unbelievably beautiful inside and out.  And I seriously mean that.
  She puts up with me and all my goofiness. 
She drives a short distance to see me at my new salon just because she loves me.  
Even on the day of this little shoot, she had an awful migraine!
All because of love.  

We put a slight backcombing halo around her entire head.
Then sectioned the hair off and secured the clip-on extensions into the tease.
This gives a super base for the extension to adhere.  No slippage here.

Next, we touched up the ends with the 1" barrel iron.

I think she really wanted to box me but instead she laughed.  
Her hair was looking too fabulous for her to box me!!

Is this natural or what??
In minutes we added length, thickness and fullness!
Boom Baby!
And how about this photography?
That would be thanks to my nephew Steven Bagley.
You can check out his stuff here at 


We thought these pics were too good to not be seen by many 
so it became part of 
our first ad in Discover St. Clair magazine.

Mucho thanks to Tara and Steven for giving me that day.
We had a ton of fun!

What do you think of Tara's thicker hair and our new ad?

Beauty and the Bible

Psalm 149:4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation. "He will beautify the humble with salvation"~~ If God were my Rachel Zoe, my own personal stylist, He would first choose to clothe me in salvation. "..Clothe me in salvation". Before He can do this He has to get me ready for my style session. This takes a bit of planning and thought. God must set the stage, so to speak. A good stylist plans, prepares, gathers needed material, and gets a full vision for the overall and complete look. In this case, I was so unattractive or plainly said, ugly as sin or maybe better to say "ugly with sin". This sin is so ugly that He cannot even look on me. If we started here God wouldn't even be able to take my measurements. God cannot be with sin. He sees this as a problem that must be fixed. We've got to wash sin away. The sin must go before anything can be done. As you've seen on What Not To Wear ...

Beauty & the Bible The Collection pt 4: "Ocean"

Moving on. If you're new to the blog, PLEASE go back and read the 3 previous entries. I know it'll be worth it. And thanks, I'm glad you're here! As a recap, I'm imagining God as my personal stylist. I've tried on 3 looks so far during my style session. You've got to read all about it. "Salvation", "Active Wear", and "Fierce". All very different looks but equally essential parts of this collection. As I look around for my next look I feel God going in a very different direction. A bit more serene. --I've been saved---I'm running here, there, and everywhere---I've even done some spriritual battle. But I can feel a draw that is pulling me to an outfit that's not so much for show but more for a comfortable, sweet, bonding time. I can't help but think of white, light, gauzy like material. So of course I imagine that God has planted me on the beach. In the late afternoon I can feel the light warmth ...

Ya think??

I have the BEST Mama in the world.  Like for real - ya'll. No joke.  She's like the bomb-diggity.  And whether or not you  use that term doesn't matter because my Mama seriously is that . She has patience that I can only hope for. She has an ability to think things and NOT say them. She may forget to get the rolls out of the oven for dinner;  but I forget to BUY the rolls in the first place. She loves helping people anyway she can. She goes WAY out of her way to help people.  It's amazing. And she' not going to tell you about it either. Oh my friends, God made her good.  So I tell you that to tell you about a card she gave me for my birthday this last year. I was turning 43.  (* Eeegads *) But the age is not important.  She gave me this card like I'm sure so many of you have seen before. A card with all of these attributes that I'm supposed to have. Well, for some reason it struck me ...
