My name is Angela Paris and I want to raise money for children’s cancer research. I’m a healthy, happy, hair stylist & I LOVE my hair. Why would I chop it all off?? ...Because I know that with every dollar raised… we are one step closer to a cure. The St. Baldrick's Foundation is doing great things & these kids NEED our help!

What is Beauty?
I got my hair done this morning! It is a vibrant red with blonde highlights. I asked for something dramatic and this sure is... I figured I might as well get a little crazy with my color since I'm shaving it all off anyway right?? I'm really happy with the results... Call UHS at 574 631 5144 & ask to book an appointment with Maria if you like what you see :)
Today I have been a little bit self-conscious since this color is such a big change for me. For me these hair changes are DECISIONS that come along with questions. What would look the best? Will it flatter my face? Is it too crazy? What will people think? Will it fit into what I think 'perfect' looks like? Will people like it?
The need to be perfect is an expectation that people put on themselves all the time... and it's a problem. I don't have time to end this blog all nice & tidy, answering all the questions that are running through my mind... but watch this video by Pink and realize that today's youth is watching us. They put their trust in us, they are going to be like us.

What does all that have to do with this cause? While is isn't directly related to St. Baldrick's, one of the reasons I am shaving my head is to figure out... "What is Beauty?"
