In This Article:

When you go to a popular salon the prices are expensive and there's most likely a wait. With a local salon, you're treated like a friend and a valued person as well as their client. You're supporting someone, not a corporation and that makes people, myself included, feel good about spending their money.

They're usually inexpensive

Because they are a small business they only charge as much as they need to.

They really care about giving you what you want

When a small salon is working on your nails, hair, etc. they're going to take their time and perfect it for you because they care about their clients LOVING what is being done.

The salon is not going to rush you out

When going to big salons, they pump customers in and out as quick as possible. Small businesses are likely to make you comfortable to ensure you're happy with your experience.

Your money isn't all they care about

Giphy

You won't ever hear a small salon owner or stylist beg for a tip. They treat you well so you'll come again and if you tip (as you should) they will greatly appreciate you.

They take pride in their work

Many small businesses styled hairdressers and nail technicians will take photos of your hair/nails to show off the job they've done. This means they think they've done really well and cared about the end product.

They make you feel at home

They know you as a person not just a number on their list of customers.

Supporting a small business is empowering

When you are supporting someone who is working hard just like yourself it feels awesome to be able to help that person out!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
