wine-o. dine-o. by-myselfo.


My mom tends to spoil me... even living on my own, with a job, and gone for more then 5 years now? whoa. She wanted to buy me a grad present but I didnt know what I wanted. I got thinkin...

I have alwayyyyys wanted to go on a trip alone. yes..ALONE! hotel to myself, dinner at a restaurant by myself, shop by myself. Is it weird i like being alone that much? CAUSE I LOVE IT!


My mom pulled through once again and got me a flight and hotel in Edmonton for me to shop shop shop and lounge lounge lounge in my hotel room. I am more excited then Christmas eve. This is gonna be one hell of a party. Me, my red wine, ugly pjs, and receipts.


Thanks mom for making my loser dream come true:) Happy Hair School grad!

Congrats to me




I am beyond pleased to announce that I got hired at MYST Salon (the only salon i have ever wanted to work at since my hair journey started)! I am so eager to get going in my new career that I can barely find words.



I have dreamed of being a haistylist and makeup artist for as long as i could remember. Im not quite sure where I got the talent in me from... my mom can just barely cover braiding, and well my dad... hasn't had the stuff since he was about ten sooo...


I got lucky somewhere! If it wasn't for my boyfriends job..i would have never moved to Regina, and if i never moved to Regina I would have never went to hairschool, and if i didnt go to hairschool... well i would still be wondering "What if..."

You see... I graduated from post secondary school before.. BUT it didnt feel quite like this. I am now doing what "I" want to do... not necassarly the right thing, the safe thing, or the smart thing. OR maybe it is. BUT, its my thing.


I am there, i did it, i finished it, and now im about to begin it. Watch out beauty world... im just getting started.

Its downtown, Aveda(Most amazing product..which gave me a topic for my next post), in an old antique house... list goes on. Now... with only three weeks left till I am a professional stylist I am grateful to be doing my work term there. To work under them would be amazing. You never know what the future brings...

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT!

I have to publicly say sorry for something...

I have been ranting and raving about my very good pal Satima and her eyebrow threading for over a year and a half now. On my blog, to my friends at school, to new people I meet... everyone! Because she really is that good.

Tonight I was at Satimas getting my brows done which were much needed. I asked if she would like me to make her some business cards so I filled out a piece of paper where she just had to fill in the blanks as to what she wanted on them.

Satima
Phone-
Address-

She politely said "Shannon.....Can I show you something?" in her beautiful indian accent. I replied "yes" of course. Then she carries on to say in a soft voice "My name is with an "F", its FATIMA" "WHATTTTT?!!!!!!!" you mean to tell me I have been sending people here calling you Satima, writing you cards titled Satima and family, carrying on the last year and a half calling you Satima and you never said a thing!?" "Well... no I didn't want to tell you cause your so nice" ahhh. ohhhh my goddddddd im mortified. So mortified that I could name a million things i would have rather went through then this. Im supposed to be her friend... I AM her friend. oh god.

I now onmy blog for everyone to see... have to say sorry, and that i cannot stop laughing at the fact this would ONLY happen to me...Shannon Hryhor, the most unlucky girl around. hahaha.

Well.. FATIMA... this is going to be a tough one going back in time. But you truly are an angel... Whether your names with an F or an S. Your beautiful and talented. And im sorry for getting your name wrong. Forgive me.

Small Town Flair-Melfort, SK makeup trip


I made the trip to Melfort to do makeup for a wedding. The small salon was nice enough to let me come in and do my thang for a wedding party, while they did theirs. I brought an assistant this time... my mother. I wish she could come to all my little gigs... cause all she did was "gig" (giggle). We had a few laughs, and then I treated her to lunch in Melfort for coming with me. The only thing we agreed on, was the greasy truck stop. Their great waitress, and greasy hashbrowns beat any big city resturant.

Thanks for comin Ma, now if I could only bring you back to Regina to be my assistant in house cleaning...

Summer Cheeks














































Whoa summer. When I'm not sweating doing makeup after makeup for weddings/grads, I am camping all over Saskatchewan with no makeup in site. Would that be a pun in a sentence?



Not sure, but I am sure that it's been an awesome summer and it's not even Aug! Only 3 more months left of hairschool... it is so bittersweet. Cant wait to be doing what I love to do as a "Career", but I WILL miss all the regulars (or not so regular) clients at the school that come in on a daily basis. I feel like after doing $9 haircuts on Downtown Scarth Street, I will be able to write a book. Seriously, imagine the most obsene, halarious, disturbing, and smelly people ever... times that by ten...and you have the regular walk ins at Marvel. I LOVE IT. I will walk out of there with practice on everything from a mullet, to a mohawk, to the cutest pixie cut around... all because I chose Marvel School of Beauty in Downtown Regina:)



MAKEUP- I was just in Candle Lake doing makeup for a friends wedding. The stylists at the salon there were nice enough to let me bring in my stuff and set up shop right there and do my thang. And thats what i did, it was so much fun.



This weekend I am in Regina doing makeup for Salon Fli, and next weekend Melfort. Busy Busy Busy.. I wouldn't want it any other way. I Love crazy chaotic life... bring it on beauty world!



Take care, and thanks for reading:) Heres some pics from my last weeks wedding... Congrats Stacey and Curtis:), thanks for having me.

Salon Fli




Salon Fli is a unique salon located in the "Warehouse District" in Regina. I heard about the salon before I even moved to the city. The stylists at Fli are known for their unique hair design from shows, educating, and salon performance.
I was lucky enough to get in contact with the owner of Salon Fli and am now stepping my foot in there as a part time staff member doing makeup. Fli is such a fun and upbeat place to be. Whether you are getting your hair/makeup done, sitting in the waiting room... or working! I love it, and I am really excited for more to come!
You don't have to go to Toronto to feel like a big city gal/guy, you can get it at Fli on Dewdney.

Thanks for bein my models girls. You make it way too easy cause your way too beautiful. xo's.


Dont forget: Even though you fight fires all summer, a little mascara wouldn't hurt noone.
