OG Strands by Zoe

✨ THE COUNTDOWN IS ON… ✨

The salon renovations are VERY nearly finished! 😍🙌🏼

We should be pretty much complete tomorrow, which means we’ll be ready to open our doors again on Thursday! 🥳💜

I honestly cannot wait for you all to see what we’ve been working on. It has been a LOT of hard work, long days, tired nights and probably more paint, dust and chaos than I ever want to see again 😂… but I can finally say it has all been worth it! ✨

A HUGE thank you to every single one of you for your patience, loyalty and continued support while we’ve been closed. Your understanding has honestly meant the world. 🥹💜

And to everyone who has helped make this renovation happen — from the people getting stuck in and helping, to the workers who have worked their magic — we appreciate you more than you know! 🫶🏼

We are SO close now… 👀

All will be revealed VERY, VERY soon! ✨💜

Keep your eyes peeled because Strands N Hands is about to have a whole new look… 👀🔥

THURSDAY — WE’RE BACK! 💜✨

salon renovations are well underway! ✨

I won’t lie… I’m absolutely exhausted! 😅 It feels like I’ve spent about 3,000 million hours at the salon over the last few weeks, but I know it’s all going to be worth it in the end.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone for your patience while we’re working behind the scenes to create something really special. Thank you to all the girls who have been helping me every step of the way, and to all the amazing workers who’ve been coming in and working so hard to bring my vision to life.

I honestly can’t wait to show you all the finished result. It’s getting closer every day, and I promise it’ll be worth the wait! 💜✨

Thank you all for sticking with us—we can’t wait to welcome you back into the new and improved salon! 🥰

✨ Birthday Month Reflections ✨

What a beautiful start to my birthday celebrations 🤍

I’ve already enjoyed an amazing meal with my bestest friends at Rio Steakhouse in Chester, followed by a wonderful family celebration at The White Lion, Llanelian. Making memories with the people I love most is what it’s all about 🥂✨

With only 2 more sleeps until my birthday holiday, I’m feeling incredibly grateful for everything and everyone around me.

A huge thank you to my wonderful clients, friends and family for all the birthday cards, gifts, decorations, messages and birthday wishes I’ve already received. The kindness, thoughtfulness and love you’ve shown me means more than you’ll ever know 🤍

I truly feel so lucky and blessed to have such amazing people in my life, both personally and through my business. Your support, loyalty and friendship never go unnoticed.

Here’s to another year of making memories, chasing dreams, working hard and appreciating every moment ✨

Feeling very grateful, very blessed and very excited for what the next few days will bring 🎂☀️✈️

✨ THINGS I’VE LEARNED BEFORE 40 ✨

As I head towards 40, I’ve spent some time reflecting on the lessons life has taught me.

🤍 Protect your peace.
🤍 Trust your gut.
🤍 Real friendships are priceless.
🤍 The people who celebrate your success are your people.
🤍 Boundaries are healthy.
🤍 Confidence beats perfection every time.
🤍 Comparison steals joy.
🤍 Invest in yourself.
🤍 Growth isn’t always comfortable, but it’s always worth it.
🤍 Family isn’t always blood.
🤍 Kindness matters.
🤍 Your younger self would be proud of you.
🤍 You don’t need everyone’s approval.
🤍 Some of the biggest breakthroughs come after the hardest seasons.
🤍 Love, laughter, health and good people are life’s greatest luxuries.
🤍 A peaceful life is a successful life.

As I step into a new decade, I’m carrying forward the lessons, the memories, the love and the gratitude.

I don’t have all the answers, but I have a heart full of appreciation for the people in my life and the journey that’s brought me here.

Here’s to Chapter 40. 🥂✨

The best is yet to come. 🤍

✨ APPRECIATION POST ✨

One thing I’ve learned over the years is this:

Appreciate the people who appreciate you.

This morning I walked into my salon and was completely overwhelmed to find it decorated for my birthday month by two of my closest friends. 🥹🤍

Not because of the balloons, banners or decorations themselves, but because of the thought, time and love behind them.

Life gets busy, and we can sometimes forget just how lucky we are to have people around us who genuinely celebrate our happiness, support our successes, and want to see us smile.

To ALL my beautiful friends, thank you for making me feel so loved and so special. Your kindness means more than you’ll ever know.

As I start this month of celebrating 40 years, I’m reminded that one of the greatest gifts in life isn’t what we have, but who we have beside us.

So today, I’m feeling incredibly grateful. 🤍

Here’s your reminder to cherish the people who show up for you, cheer for you, and celebrate you — because those people are priceless.

✨ Surround yourself with people who clap when you win.
✨ Appreciate those who appreciate you.
✨ Never take genuine friendship for granted.

My heart is very full today. 🤍

The decorations will come down, but the feeling of being loved and appreciated will stay with me forever. 🤍✨

✨ HELLO JUNE ✨

This month is a special one… because I turn 40 🥹✨

And instead of just celebrating one day, I’m making this whole month about appreciating the life I’ve built, the people I love, the lessons I’ve learned, and all the little moments that make life beautiful.

40 feels less about getting older and more about becoming more me than ever before.
More confident. More grateful. More peaceful. More happy.

So this month will be full of memories, laughter, good food, family time, friendships, little luxuries, big energy, and celebrating every beautiful thing life has given me 🤍

Here’s to entering a new decade surrounded by love, happiness, growth, and people who make my life brighter every single day.

Chapter 40… I’m ready for you ✨🥂
