Like an onion…

Liz’s own sweet sister was tired of her one-length ‘do, so we gave her some fresh, loose texture!

Liz on Liz and some sisterly love!

Wowza! Honey’s has an iPad!

So, it took us a few centuries, but we’ve finally caught up to technological advances. At least for now. That’s right, we bought an ipad. Luckily, what makes up a great hair-do doesn’t change as quickly as our gadgets do. At Honey’s, we’re still on the cutting edge.

More boxes full of hair

Thanks a million to all you fine folks who came out for the Shave-a-Thon. With your help we filled another box to ship down to the Gulf. 20 folks in all came out for the clippers, with 2 beautiful people arriving with hair past their shoulders and leaving with short short fuzzy stuff! Your commitment to the environment and the future of our coastal fisheries is heartwarming for sure. Please send a donation to www.matteroftrust.org or to another organization doing work to clean-up and preserve our irreplaceable coastline!

Thanks Athens!

Oil Spill Clean-up Crew!

For the past two years we’ve donated hair to an amazing non-profit out of San Francisco, Matter of Trust. They take the donated hair and make it into mats and booms to soak up oil from spills. There are small spills all the time, and Matter of Trust dispatches folks out with the mats and booms to help in the recovery effort. As of today, there are 370,000 salons donating hair, and 100,000 groomers.

This time the spill is truly catastrophic, and they are calling for as much help as fast as possible. Groups of volunteers have been assembled all along the coast to stuff nylons with hair to make the booms. Today I sent down 65 lbs of hair to Valparaiso Florida to be processed by volunteers at  ”boom-b-ques.” They’re trying to make it a fun process down there, and we’re trying to do the same here.

Please come by Honey’s Tuesday, May 11th, from 5-7. We’ll have some snacks and you can come hang out. We’ll be taking donations for Matter of Trust, we’ll take nylons (they can have runs, just no big holes), and you shave your head. That’s right, come by honey’s and get a free summer cut. It’s a SHAVE-A-THON.  Bonus points if you come by bike or on foot. I know we’ll have more men than women I’m sure, but let’s see how many brave women we’ve got out there. It’ll be fun, I promise. No appointments necessary. Bring a friend. SPREAD THE WORD. It all goes to saving the coast.

THANKS ON BEHALF OF THE BIRDS AND TURTLES!

You have no idea.

I have done Germaine’s hair for several years now, and boy does she have some hair to do. For the longest time it was so long she could sit on it, we would trim just an inch or two and it would nearly break her heart. You have no idea how long I have waited (patiently, quietly) for Germaine to get a haircut that came closer to expressing her magnetic and creative personality.

I think Germaine looks positively stunning with her new ‘do. Her cut is decidedly asymmetrical and her color has beautiful tones of gold, copper, and citrus. We’ll change it a bit more each time she comes in, cultivating a truly fantastic new Germaine on the outside to go with the wonderful artist she is on the inside.

Thanks for spending your time with us at the hive Germaine!
