♥️ A little update from behind the chair…♥️
I never imagined I’d have to share something like this, but I want my clients to understand what’s happening behind the scenes.
My health has changed my life in ways I never expected. I finally have a diagnosis of hemiplegic migraine (which is a rare migraine condition) , and while I’m starting treatment and continuing with further tests, working has become incredibly difficult.
And it’s not just me. The salon is going through a really challenging time too. Keeping everything going while I’m unwell has been emotionally, physically and financially tough, and there are days when it all feels completely overwhelming. 💔
I miss my chair. I miss my clients. I miss creating, chatting, laughing and feeling like me.
But I’m still fighting for myself, for my salon and for the future I’ve worked so hard to build.
To every client who has stayed patient, rearranged appointments, supported the salon and continued to stand by me — thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
I truly believe we’ll get through this.
One day, one appointment and one little step at a time. 🌿✂️❤️

A very honest update from me… ❤️

I don't usually like putting everything out there, but right now I feel people need to understand just how difficult things have become.

At the moment, I have no salon, no car and no financial support, and I am trying to navigate all of this while being genuinely unwell.

I have been signed off work because of my ongoing health problems. I am still waiting for Neurology, despite being placed on the urgent waiting list, and until I have further medical advice, I cannot simply sign myself back into work and carry on as though everything is okay.

The hardest part is that I want to work. I want my salon back. I want my normal life back.

I miss being behind my chair.
I miss creating.
I miss my clients.
I miss feeling like me.

Instead, I'm having to deal with uncertainty about my health, financial pressure, the loss of my normal way of working and the emotional toll that all of this is taking.

And yet, somehow, I'm still trying.

I'm trying to accommodate my clients wherever I possibly can. I'm trying to work around my health. I'm trying to keep things moving. I'm trying to stay positive for my family when, truthfully, there are days where I feel completely overwhelmed myself.

And then there's the salon…

It is going as fast as we physically can make it go.

I promise you, if determination alone could make it finished, it would have been finished weeks ago.

But after what feels like a smashing run of absolutely terrible luck, there are only so many things we can do at once. We are doing everything we possibly can, but we cannot physically make the days longer or the work happen faster.

Please don't mistake the delays for not caring.

I care more than you could possibly know.

Every day I'm thinking about my clients, my business, my family and what the future is going to look like.

I'm exhausted from constantly having to fight for answers, fight for support and fight to keep everything together, all while my own health is still an unanswered question.

But I'm still here.

Still fighting.
Still trying.
Still building.
Still believing that eventually this nightmare of a chapter will end.

I honestly never thought I'd have to write another post like this... again.

Following a 9th complaint... yes, a NINTH complaint about my salon, despite already receiving the all clear from Housing and Central Bedfordshire Planning, the anonymous person clearly wasn't happy with that outcome. Instead, they made a complaint to Building Control.

Today, after inspections from Building Control, Housing and a Fire Assessor, it has been decided that a few changes will need to be made to my salon, as well as Elliot's tool shed, to ensure everything complies with all requirements.

Unfortunately, this means I will have to close the salon for a while whilst the work is carried out. At the moment, we are still waiting for confirmation of our options before any work can begin.

I cannot apologise enough to all of my wonderful clients for the inconvenience and disappointment this may cause. This whole situation has taken a huge toll on my mental wellbeing, alongside my ongoing health issues, and the financial strain it has placed on my family.

My hope is that once these works are completed, this chapter will finally come to an end. However, I will not be ignoring what has happened. If these repeated complaints continue, I will be seeking legal advice and involving the police where appropriate, as I believe the ongoing pattern of complaints is becoming harassment towards myself and my family.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout this. Your kindness, loyalty and encouragement mean more than you'll ever know.
Please D.m me if you have any questions,
I hope you all have a wonderful summer holiday.

Love,

One tired, heart broken but determined, Creative Commercial Hairprofessional.

Health update:

Many of you kindly message or ask if there's any update in regards of my health issues......

Here it is........
Brace ya self's

My stomach emptying tests come back normal
My spinal MRI came back minor bulge but nothing thats concerning nor causing these symptoms apart from that all clear.......

I know sounds great doesn't it!

but this doesn't give us answers as to why im experiencing symptoms that i am having,
The only thing is we have narrowed it down to the leisons that showed up on my brain which could be the reason.....
Im Hoping to see the neurologist soon so we can have a idea of what is going on...

This is and has been frustrating on myself and everyone around me thats been so supportive, I may walk round and seem ok but deep inside its killing me not knowing aswell as trying to not let it get to me as it plays on my mental health massively.
Thank you all for being supportive and kind hopefully it won't be long till i see the neurologist get a diagnosis and a plan moving forward 🙏🙏🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
