My second post about hair is very exciting because I love sharing my feelings about brands that I love. (Also I love using the word love because love is my favorite & most commonly felt emotion.)
In honor of Horst Rechelbacher's memory I have dedicated a week to hair and then after the first post I decided that Horst is worthy of a month. So until April I will be posting mostly (but not solely) about hair!
When it comes to the different areas of a body that a person can prep in order to be ready for the day my least favorite area to primp is my hair, therefore I LOVE GETTING MY HAIR DONE!

Here are my top three fav spots to get meh hurr did in MPLS:
1) BESPOKE HAIR ARTISANS - 50th & France
I don't get my hair done every six weeks like a lot of beauty addicts, sometimes I am as bad as twice a year so with that little commitment I give myself the leeway to spend a bit more than is probably wise at this moment in my financial life. But I will be honest, I've never experienced buyers remorse after a trip to see my friends at Bespoke. I have had my hair done by three if not four different stylist, I've had facials, colors, trims, the works and I have never left without a giant grin and a relaxed vibe.
I love Bespoke Hair Artisans, this salon will always have a special place in my heart due almost exclusively to the beautiful soul behind the scenes, the owner Lisa Williams! An amazingly generous woman who has been a supporter of Sol Inspirations (a passion project of mine), she is someone I look up to as a woman in business and most importantly she has been a friend to me & a mentor in a subtle way. I feel so thankful to have met her and had the pleasure of developing our relationship in a number of different areas.

SUPER SUPPORTIVE EMPLOYER

Commitment to conscious brands.
2) Horst & Friends - East Hennipen NE
I have been to HORST & FRIENDS salon probably more than 5 and less than a dozen times, so I am not incredibly familiar with the stylists at this glorious refuge of a salon. The building that houses the salon is also the Intelligent Nutrients office space. IN used to do their product manufacturing in the space until it outgrew the beast of a building.
I have been asked to participate in several product testing sessions for Intelligent Nutrients, the HORST & FRIENDS salon is used for these, also at the first IN Fashion Night Out event I modeled a responsible fashion look and was styled in the space. Point being I have been there enough times to feel comfortable recommending this lovely establishment for your hair needs. Every one of these stylists has worked with Horst and in the space that created IN, how could they not constantly be inspired by the messages of health and beauty?!
All you have to do to be sold of this salon is walk in the front door. I'm telling ya, it's like walking into a sanctuary, the smells are intoxicating and the spaces are uniquely rustic yet chic. Reclaimed mirrors create the barrier from retail to salon, Horst's art work lines the walls, high ceilings yet a feeling of intimacy. I could go on but I don't want to give up all the yummy details. Next time you are in that neighborhood just stop in, I dare you.

3) The Hive Salon - Lowry NE
I confess that I have only had my hair done here three times but I had great experiences every time. From my understanding it's two sisters that co-founded the business & I've had my hair cut by both. Becca gave me a Brigitte Bardot inspired look for some fashion event while Jen and I talked about our love of Twin Peaks for far too long haha. Jen was even recognized by I AM MPLS last year so I was able to connect with her on that project as well!
Supportive of Sol Inspirations.

THEY ARE SWEETHEARTS.
There it is. Go get your hair done, support local businesses, use organic products, blah blah blah. But more importantly... TREAT YA SELF.
