"Hey P.D.!!! Thank you! Thank You! Thank You!!! The event was amazing! The stylists were awesome, the driver, Gary, was so kind and helpful and if you could have seen the looks on the clients faces, you would have seen emotional healing first hand! Working with abused women, we see so much emotional and physical bruising from years of put downs and cruelty. It was so wonderful to witness their transformations and see their smiles and confidence grow! I realize that too many people think a haircut and makeover are only physical things but it definitely helps to heal the soul, too. You are privileged to be a part of an inspired program and we were definitely privileged to be a part of it this weekend. Thank you for your part in healing bruised souls!"
