Yesterday was for celebrating!    I hosted an event at the salon for the community to celebrate our first year in business. We invited The Biggest Little Fashion truck out of Reno to do a pop up during the event and it was a huge success. Stay tuned for more events with BLFT in the future! My amazing aunt and cousin with CreationS made an adorable party set up and brought my vision to life (hello doughnut board). Tanner's aunt supplied the delicious champagne cupcakes, thank you Phyllis! Thank you to my right hand girl Anabell for helping me set up, clean up and plan this whole thing. And of course thank you to my husband for holding down the fort at home this last week while I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off. As promised, I made a HUGE announcement last night at the party. I have officially launched The Collective Susanville's first blow dry subscription service. So what is a blow dry subscription?    Well we are constantly g...

What a year 2019 has been so far! It's nearing July which will mark one year since my last Price Revision . I am sure you have noticed all the big changes that have happened with Salon 705 since last July. The biggest by far being the opening of the new larger location, hiring of staff as well as some new amenities like our house made lattes, new retail products available and completely redesigned website. As many of you have seen, this past year was not only a year of personal growth, but also a year of massive business growth. My schedule became increasingly busy and it was, at times, hard to schedule an appointment. Therefore, starting July 1st, 2019 due to high demand, I will be implementing a Price Revision for my services. I am doing this so that I can spend the perfect amount of time with each client to focus on your unique needs. I also hope to make appointments more available to you as my clients so that you can get the dates you prefer. I hope this...

Natural Beaded Rows Hair Extensions What are they? NBR is a weft style extension system that is attached with beads and string.    It has minimal points of contact on your natural hair smaller than your pinky nail, about 12-15 points per row. This makes it incredibly gentle on the natural hair. NBR was created by Danielle K White owner of DKW styling in Laguna Beach, CA. Danielle created this method specifically for fragile, fine hair so it is a perfect method for fine haired girls but is great for any hair type. NBR uses the highest quality remy , single donor , hand tied human hair .  Lets break all that down: REMY- cuticle correct- meaning all the hair is tied to the weft in the direction it grew from the head. This prevents tangling issues. SINGLE DONOR- each bag of hair is form one donor making it less prone to color inconsistencies and tangling. HAND TIED- each individual strand is hand tied onto two strings creating a weft of hair. NO machin...
