A few months ago I was getting my hair cut by the amazing and brilliant Donnie Vasey at Divinity Salon here in Pittsburgh and we got to talking about the awesomeness of social media.
From there, Donnie and I came up with the idea of bringing into his salon a select group of Pittsburgh-based mom bloggers for cuts, color, fun and hands on learning about hair.
Donnie is a make-it-happen guy and he did more than you can imagine to MAKE IT HAPPEN. From an idea sprang an incredible day. And here we are. At this very moment I am live blogging from Divinity, watching awesome, talented, sweet and smart moms from across Western PA (and even one from West Virginia!) get FABULOUSLY transformed by Donnie, his wife and co-owner Pamela and their INCREDIBLE team of talented and creative stylists.
Please enjoy the before and after photos below, truly magnificent. Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts Divinity Salon, you made life beautiful for a very happy group of Pittsburgh moms today!!!!!!!!!
