Welcome 
Me myself and my family 
First of all let me welcome you to my new blog, I'm hoping to run this along side of my Facebook pages Tip Top Hair Design Ashby and Vintage at Tip Top Hair Design, my Twitter https://mobile.twitter.com/account, and my website www.tiptophairdesign.co.uk . Someone once told me that you as a business needed to be seen in 5 different ways for potential new customers to realise who you are,  so this is me increasing that.

I have thought for a few months about starting to write a blog about. Me, My salon, health,  being a mum and a farmers wife, I wanted this to be about me and how I balance everything! but still remaining professional,  not a common mix I know,  but trying to balance salon life with the life of a mum for the last 10 years and being with my husband for 20 years (married for 12) are aspects of my life I am equally passionate about.

I first met my husband back in 1995 when I was just 16 years old about to start my GCSEs, We met at Ashby young farmers club and it was love at first sight and we've been together ever since.  He has been there for me through exams, my hairdressing qualifications,  family and setting up my own business.  He supports me unconditionally and I him, Andy (nickname Nobby I don't know why) is a agricultural contractor, combining, ploughing and much more, he works very hard, often 15-16 hours a day during his busiest season. Sometimes we see very little of each other but it works for us. 

My daughter is an energetic 10 year old with a love of the outdoors like her father, she also likes to cook, ride her bike, sing and draw, she's a proper little girl who loves to wear makeup whilst jumping in puddles and getting filthy. Elizabeth was 5 months old when I opened the salon. She was the driving force in me wanting to create a business that could support our family, whilst giving me some flexibility to be there for those important childhood moments. 

Thank you
