MAGDolls — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 14:18:08 +0000

Groupons are finished!
We want to thank you for making 2011 such a wonderful year.
2011 was awesome and it was because of all the wonderful new people we met through Groupon and through word of mouth.
I think in the future we would totally use Grouopn again and keep it around 3 months expiration, a year was a little long.
We appreciate everyones patience and support.
Hope 2012 is a Rockin new year for everyone!

Thank You,
MAGDolls Loves You!!!!!

2011 in review

MAGDolls — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 04:18:51 +0000

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 9,900 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 4 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

The New Year Is Coming!

Yae, Happy New Year Everyone!

We hope it to be everyone’s best year yet!

It is so nice to be working with two wonderful girls, Tiffany Commander and Nicole Bacon.
They bring a great vibe into the shop.
We are all still independent contractors so I changed up our hair cuts on our menu from short and long to fine and thick.

If you have very fine hair or very short hair (above the chin short) then usually with consulting, washing, drying, and cutting it takes a max of 30 min.
If you have coarse, thick, very curly hair, it can take a whole hour to cut, wash, and consult.
It’s the same with people that have longer hair, if it’s very fine and quick to dry, it can take 30 min max, if its coarse, thick, or super long, it can take a whole hour to do the works.

It will make it better for us timing wise by keeping us from having half hour breaks after each short haircut we do.
I like breaks, but not right after my first cut of the day.
Don’t get the wrong impression, we love talking with you.
Even with talking each others ears off and doing the works were done in 30.
It’ll also make more it clear as to which cut to pic.

I think everyone gets the point. I just didn’t want people to panic and think we are going to start rushing them out of our chairs.
We are still all about our customer service and providing the vibe of growth, love, and respect.

Tiffany is back!

MAGDolls — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:25:48 +0000

Tiffany is back!
We are still working out details of how long she’ll be back or if she is going to be in 1/2 a year and out the other etc.. but she is back for now
I have added her onto the online scheduler so you can also start booking with her.
Some of you that have followed us over to MAGDolls know Tiffany and liked her as much as you like me
I think we have similar styles. She says there’s no method to my madness and I say she is just as creative with more of a method applied.
We are all very excited to be working together again and watching MAGDolls grow into a rad little hair parlour.
Nicole is still here working away on Dreads, Extensions, Cuts, and Colors one whole week a month. You can contact and schedule with Nicole by clicking the contacts tab on MAGDolls.com
Feel free to try us all out, see who fits your needs. It’s one big family vibe, there will be no possessiveness or scolding happening if you decide you found one of us or another place to be better suited for your needs. We wish you nothing but happiness. *Cheese* For reals tho

Thank you all for reading, I hope you all have safe and good times during the holidays and entering into the new year, and we’ll be seeing you in and out of the shop
xoxo MAGDolls Loves You!

Far future time off and if you are looking for recommendations…

MAGDolls — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 13:54:25 +0000

Hello!

I want to start off by saying Thank You All for all your support! I love, love, love my job and plan on doing hair until I die or physically can’t any longer.
I am not at all trying to steer you away from MAGDolls, I’m just making sure you are being taken care of when you want. You shouldn’t have to wait around for me and there is always a next time!
If for some reason you are having a hard time getting onto my schedule because I’m booked out too far for you, or I am taking some time off and you want to know who I would go to, then here are some of my recommendations some of you have asked for:

First I would go to Tiffany if she is available at MAGDolls. If not then I would pick one of these other lovely hair stylists in the SE ActivSpace building

If you are going for a more natural look with color (highlights/lowlights,all over any color, grey coverage, etc..) and or cutting I would recommend Nikkie Thrasher in Honeycomb hair studio upstairs from MAGDolls suit
#227, 503-869-3294

If you are a Guy or gal that prefers a Barbers hair cut, then Augustus Bowman in Oak Barbershop right behind my shop in suite #115 will take care of you! His phone number is 503.967.5925 and web is http://www.oakbarbershop.com I have liked what I have seen walk out of his shop. He is a barber and does cut mostly mens hair but, if you are a lady and would still like a bad ass short cut then he will cut yours too.

If you have curly/wavy hair and are looking to get rid of your curls for some crazy reason, J/P I’d recommend Alysia in Unsprung upstairs on the 4th floor in suite #409 of our building, www.unsprung.net, she specializes in Chemical Hair Straightening, permanent and non permanent options

Some of my future goals are, to take 2 months off a year for personal hobbies, continued education, and a couple of looong breaks! Hopefully this will all be starting by May of 2014. The plan is to take the whole month off every May and Oct each year. I will update blogs and mark out the online scheduler so you know for sure. I know its early notice lol, just making sure to communicate with you all

I really couldn’t be happier with my career choice and for choosing Portland Oregon to do hair in. I’m a very lucky lady and it’s all thanks to you! xoxoxoxo

Thank You,
Michelle Hogue

MAGDolls Loves You!

Please be courteous

Like yours, our time is precious to us.
Please be considerate when showing up late or canceling and give at least a 24 hour notice so we can get those spots filled.
If you scheduled online, please go back online and cancel your appointment if possible. Otherwise call the shop at 503~233~8875 and leave a message with your name, the date, and time of your appt and we will cancel it for you.
We make sure to space our appointments out so that we have enough time to consult and get to know you so we can do the best job possible on your hair.
If you are late it puts us behind our schedule and can make our whole day fall behind.
If you can do this for us, we will do the same for you!

Thanks so much for reading and for being courteous,
MAGDolls love you!
