For the past four years, we have proudly supported Mommy's Light, a children's charity that is near and dear to our hearts. This wonderful organization helps bereaved children who have lost their mothers by continuing cherished family traditions and providing bereavement support. The annual Mommy's Light 5K & 1 Mile Fun Race is one of the charity's largest events, and Balance Hair Spa is bronze-level sponsor again.

How can you help?

  • At your next appointment, purchase a "Heart for Mommy" for as little as a $1 donation.  Fill out your card "In Honor of" a family member, friend or loved one, or "In Memory of" a special person who has passed. We will display all of the cards in our salon. Please help us reach our goal of 100 Hearts for Mommy cards!
  • Join us for the 8th Annual Mommy's Light 5K & 1 Mile Race on Saturday, April 28, in Eagleview Town Center, Exton.  Bring your whole family to this fun event!  In addition to the 5K Run/Walk, there is a 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk, a Stroller Start, Tot Trot (ages 2-5), and fun children's events, such as free ice cream for children from an old-fashioned ice cream truck.  Last year, there were over 700 participants! Preregister for the race at Active.com or mail-in preregistration form [pdf].

She came to us with extremely damaged hair from a salon in the Washington DC area. Our Artistic Director Trisa worked closely with her to best restore her hair's health and style.

After a good cut and conditioning treatment, they decided on Dreamcatchers Hair Extensions to give her long flowing locks again. Trisa carefully matched the color and wave of her existing hair. Within a few days (using rush service), our client had an envious head of loose blonde waves.

Take a look at these dramatic before and after photos.

Help us fill our donation box!

Visit Chester County's local Toys for Tots website or donate online.

Not sure which toys are needed?  Here's a few tips from our local Toys for Tots Coordinator:

0 to 2 Years Infant Group
Usually have a large abundance of toys donated for this group.

3 to 7 Years Group
Always have a large abundance of toys donated, as this is the easiest group to buy for.

8 to 12 Years Group
One of our tougher groups during the collection times. This age group may be harder to buy for.  Games, arts and crafts, books and sports balls are all good for this group.

12 to 14 Years Group
This group can be extremely tough to buy things for, so donations here may be needed most. Though age-appropriate toys are expensive or tough to find, things like arts and crafts, watches, bath sets, cosmetics, books and backpacks are good things for this group.

Hurry in! Toy drop-off ends on Saturday, December 10, 2011.

Bringing the Joy of Christmas and delivering a message of Hope to needy children.
