What’s life for if not to have fun? Hair is easy to change and it can grow back. I hope you do something that makes you happy, my darlings.  

The First HWA Las Vegas Chapter Meeting of 2019 was a Success!

Usually we grabbed a table at Count’s Vamp’d, which is a very cool Rock and Roll bar with live music. … Read More
