A trip to the salon for you and your four-legged best friend!

What woman doesn't enjoy going to the hair salon? (Shoot, men enjoy it too!)
Wouldn't you enjoy it even more if it was free?  Wouldn't you enjoy it more if you felt like royalty every time you walked into the salon?
Well, you will have the chance to bid on an item from my favorite salon in the Washington DC area!
I met David in 1999 when he worked at Bubbles in Springfield Mall. A friend of mine was getting married and I was in the wedding. A coworker of hers introduced her to David and that's how it all started.......
About three years later, David opened his own salon, the Jon David Salon in Springfield off of Commerce Street in a building that used to be a bank.  After a horrible experience with a hairdresser in Alexandria, I remembered meeting David and found him again. The rest is hair and friendship history!
In 2012, David branched out and opened a shop in the Clarendon area of Arlington and then a year ago he opened up a third shop in Clifton. I couldn't be more proud of him! 
I can't imagine ever letting anyone else touch my hair! David and I have become fantastic friends and he never fails to make me look and feel beautiful.  His welcoming and fun-loving personality as well as his tall, dark and handsome looks sure don't hurt either!
As long as I've been trusting David with my hair, I have seen a variety of clients come in and out of his three shops - from kids, prom and wedding events, professionals, men, women, and even grandparents. It doesn't matter what you want or who you are, David and his staff will make it happen and won't let you leave until you are 100% satisfied!
When asked about something unique that he wanted clients to know about him, he replied, "I am always honest and straightforward about recommendations for your best look. Reinventing people's hair and the instant gratification that comes from the end result of my work is my favorite thing." How can you go wrong with that attitude?

I cannot thank my dear David enough for his more than generous donations to support Denny's Shotgun Riders. I am overwhelmed at his graciousness and so thankful for his friendship.


Now, if we get to go to the salon as humans, shouldn't our dogs be able to get pampered as well?
That's when Dogtopia comes into play!

Dogtopia of Woodbridge has the full range of services, trained staff and equipment to manage the needs of any size or breed of dog.  You can choose to drop off your four-legged best friend for a manicure or a full wash, trim and style by the Dogtopia team or you can use their self-service dog wash area. They have high waist tubs and a range of shampoos and towels.  Dogtopia staff will give individualized attention to your baby so that they can get to know your dog and treat them with love and affection. It's all about making your dog comfortable, relaxed and beautiful!
I used to take my dog, Prowler, to Dogtopia, for daycare and he absolutely loved it! So on top of the spa services, Dogtopia also has boarding and incredible daycare for dogs!! Nothing like taking them for fun in the morning with their dog friends and then have them groomed in the afternoon! You'll have a very happy and sleepy baby when you pick your dog up!
Amber Sutton, owner of Dogtopia of Woodbridge, and her staff, value the happiness of both pet and family, and they strive to combine top-notch customer service with loving canine care!

I am so touched and appreciative to Amber for her donation to support Denny's Shotgun Riders!

So get ready to bid on salon services - for you, for your dog or for both of you!

One thing my fundraiser is going to be is an equal opportunity fundraiser!
I'm trying my best to make sure there is "something for everyone"!
