Students at work at Career School of Hairdressing

Women under the auspices of YWCA Durham and John Cooney's E.A. Lovell group attended last Thursday's mini-makeover session at the hairdressing school. With 12 women, the hairdressing students, and John snapping pictures, it was a busy place. Here are his photos and a few of mine.

Getting Gorgeous with John Weiss Salon

Our Wonderful SPONSORS 

We have been fundraising through an ArtsVest program the City of Oshawa has in place for this winter, The intention is to create links between business (i.e. sponsors) and art organizations (e.g. IRIS). All fall we have been getting mini makeovers by the students at the  Career School of Hairdressing for the women who are supported through YWCA programs, and the students who have been working on the grounds at the Y. (See earlier story)

THE GRAND FINALE of this project is that participants names went into a draw for two full monte makeovers at Oshawa's preeminent makeover place.

 John Weiss Hair Design is the long standing creme de la creme for bespoke makeovers, and they have offered to do a $300 value treatment for two lucky women. There is a before and after wall in their foyer that gives dramatic testimony to what can happen in their hands. And now we have two winners of the draw!
