hair salons for my mom.
From: Cafille

Normally I would never e-mail someone I found on the internet, however I have been doing some research on hairstylists in Los Angeles and was particularly impressed with what you wrote about on the site for the Lance Christopher Salon in Beverly Hills. about you really paying attention and spending time with a client to understand their best features, skin tones to come up with a style / haircut that will be the best style for them.

With that said I am writing to you because I am giving a gift to my mother who wants a sort of "style" makeover (for her hair) and since she lives in a really small town she doesn't have access to the quality that a place like Los Angeles offers. My concern or rather interest was in finding someone that maybe specializes in the more mature woman or someone that feels confident working on that kind of hair.

My mom is over 60 and has pretty much white hair, all the hair salons she goes to seem to do the same thing. It is a pretty color and proabably about shoulder length, however over time has had some damage and doesn't have much style. I would think that color would not be an option because she would have a hard time keeping it up (she can't really afford it) so I was thinking that a really good new style / cut could really help her style.

My mother needs to some type of hair salons here but, has done so much for me raising me on her own and I have never really been able to "give back" in a monetary way so now that I am on my own I would like to spend some money on her and do something really nice for her. I want her to feel beautiful and stylish.

Have you had much experience working with older clients hair (texture, etc) and what is a typical session like? Is there a consultation then the cut?

Any insight you can provide is much appreciated as she is coming out to visit over the Thanksgiving holidays and I would really like to surprise her with this !

Sincerely -

Cafille Shantel
