The building I have in mind for my salon to be held at in town here is the old Wells Fargo building. I am hoping to get a hold of someone who is selling it and just get some information and maybe be able to go in and measure out the building and get a good idea of what the lay out will look like. Once I see exactly what the size the building is I will then be able to chose how many vanities I can put in the salon and know exactly how much room I will have for what.

I had not said how the name got decided for my salon. First of all Cut it and Strut it is the name. I was having a difficult time figuring out what to name this place and I wanted it to be catchy and a place that sounds like a place people would want to go to. So I was trying to get some ideas from my friends and my friend Lexi Quail text me while I was at Wal-mart and told me the name and I loved it instantly. She told me her dad came up with the name and she switched it up a little bit. Now Cut it and Strut it will be the salon's name.

I am pretty sure I have found my salon colors. I have mixed and matched different colors and I think I have found the colors that bring out the name of my salon. The colors that I have selected are a bright teal color, pink, burnt orange, and silver. I don't know how exactly I will display these colors which colors will go where but the good thing is I have my colors now I can move on to the next step!

Cut it and Strut it being the name of my salon I plan to pick some colors that go along with the name. The name of my salon is spunky and sassy and some colors that fit that will really make my salon pop. I was thinking some bright colors, maybe pinks and yellows. I was maybe even thinking some modern color schemes. A popular color scheme now that I have noticed is yellow silver and white or black. I was planning on doing something with those colors but might just stick to the bright funky colors.

I have some ideas on what I want to put in my salon. I have been looking at styling stations and chairs trying to see if something will spark my attention and so far a silver styling station has really drawn my attention. I plan on putting this in my salon somewhere. My color scheme has not been picked but the name of my salon has. The name will be Cut it and Strut it.

I am now trying to figure out different to put in my salon but I can't pick anything out until I pick colors out. I am looking on a great website minervabeauty.com, this website has a lot of great salon equipment so I am planning to get the majority of the things I need for my salon from this site.

My project is on cosmetology. I will be going more in depth then just the basic hair and nails. I will be starting my own salon in Clear Lake. I am going to find an empty building and “take out a loan” and remake the whole building into my very own salon. Mrs. Walder is my faculty mentor. My community mentor is Mikki Gubka and we have not got together yet to discuss everything but I am planning that tonight we will.
