On Saturday, November 21, 2020, Wild Soul Weddings owner La Rae and a new friend, Sean, from Sean Michael Images, celebrated Paul and Rachel as they made their sweet love last name official!

These two pivoted slightly by reducing their 300 person guest list down to a fraction. Their beautiful intimate day was still absolutely perfect in every way!

Paul and Rachel’s love is so beautiful that there were so many times when I cried along with them. Their first look was filled with joyful tears, and Paul could not stop telling his bride how beautiful she is, and how lucky he is to have found her.

They definitely had a team of amazing vendors, and we loved meeting so many new friends!

Take a peek at their wedding day highlights!

Looking for a new stylist.
I just have to share - a coworker and I were talking today about getting haircuts and she was asking if my stylist wore a mask. She unfortunately had an experience where she was told the stylist would have one on but when she arrived the stylist wasn’t and the other clients weren’t either. For her, she wasn’t comfortable and left and felt awful about the whole experience. I just have to say kudos to Melissa Avenson and the rest of the team at Avenson Salon for keeping their word and keeping clients and themselves as safe as possible!! 🙌 It isn’t easy, it’s not cheap, it wears you down (I’m sure) but you are doing a rockstar job of being responsible. Thank you and don’t worry, I sent my coworker your way 😊👍
I can hardly wait until my appointment Friday!!! It’s been too long Melissa.
Hi. I used the Moisture and my sad hair is very happy, bouncy and full of volume. Thanks for the tutorials and time you take to keep us all looking beautiful.
Do your stylists offer gift certificates?! I would like to support my stylist, Amy Van Loh, during this difficult time, and I’m sure others would as well! 💙
Just a friendly reminder! 😀

How to best work with your gray…
There are 3 main ways of transitioning to gray hair from dyed hair:
🦃the cold turkey method (letting the dye grow out or cutting it out),
💆‍♀️the salon transition (having a stylist blend your old color hair to match your natural gray), or
💆‍♀️🦃💇🏻‍♀️the combination of both. Waiting it out, work with your outgrowth and then blending mid to end to correspond with outgrowth!

find this helpful or have questions about your own Grey transition? Leave a comment or question below. ⬇️

It’s true! I can’t say the last 3 years were easy for me OR my salon crew but you wouldn’t know it if you’ve visited us!
The salon has continued to pull together, grow together, help each other through good times and really super sh*tty times!
I was overwhelmed with it all from home life to work life during this time too. I was lost, scared and totally unsure of what the F**k-a-Roo to do! What kept me pushing forward and figuring it out were the friendships and talent I have inside our salon! They were worth it to keep going!! It’s worth it for me as a women in business, to keep going! At the end of the day, my clients, my career and our salon is my happy place. I can only hope to create a space you all are happy & feel good in too!!

Looking forward to 2023 with you all!! 💛. We appreciate ALL your continued support friends!!

Love, Melissa

Hey Lovey, I have to get honest… taking selfies for ALL to see our NEW items, it is for sure my least favorite part of the boutique gig!
It’s lighting, posing and trying to seem comfortable in my own skin (which currently I’m struggling with daily…I know a lot of us can relate).
However, it’s a MUST DO for YOU❤️
Lucky for US ALL… we have size options from SMALL-3X!!
I will also be honest about my curvy wear… it is just starting out, I want to make sure I can truly provide all sizes in quality and relevant clothing!! Soo here I’m wearing…
Bodysuit in: 1x
Shackets in: Large
Cardi in: Large or XL both fit get but different
Jean jacket in: Large

Never assume it won’t fit or we wouldn’t have your size… try it on lady love! You may be surprised and find a great new piece to feel your best in!!

*PEEP*. Who spotted photo bombing!?? 😂 she even somehow managed to not look surprised at all, totally “struck a pose” AND, per-usual, has a HUGE SMILE on her face. Our personal favorite accessory she seems to NEVER forget to wear every day!!!❤️
