Verde Valley AZ (February 18, 2014) – Advanced Hair Designs, a full-service hair and nail salon located in West Sedona, is offering one deserving woman the chance to win a complete hair makeover to celebrate February as “the month of love” with their Lift of Love Hair Makeover Contest.
From now until Feb. 22, women of all ages can enter to win by visiting the salon’s Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/Wighairextensions. Participants must email a “Before” photo of their current hair style to Owner & Master Stylist, Gladys Movassaghi, along with a 150-word essay on why they feel they deserve a complete hair makeover to lift their spirits. The entries will be put into a Facebook photo album where the applicant’s family & friends can “vote” for them by liking their photo. The photo with most “likes” at 6 p.m. on Feb. 28 will win the complete hair makeover – a hair cut, color & style donated by Movassaghi herself.
“My hope is that this makeover will go to someone who will deeply benefit from the confidence a new look can give her,” says Movasagghi.
Movasagghi was inspired to offer the contest after she donated complete hair makeovers to an entire group of mothers who attended a “Mindful Mamas” class hosted by Megan Aronson at The Shiva Shack in Cottonwood.
“Seeing these women blossom was a gift in and of itself,” said Aronson, Founder of Mindful Mamas. “Then, to hear that Gladys, who already does so much for the community through her salon, was donating these makeovers – it was just unbelievable.”
“The impact it had on each of these women was nothing short of miraculous. They left the salon glowing inside and out.”
Movassaghi has grown to love giving back – she works regularly with cancer patients who’ve suffered hair loss, even obtaining special medical training to offer these clients the highest quality service possible in creating wigs and hair pieces designed to feel as natural as real hair.
The “Lift of Love” contest is just one more way Advanced Hair Designs is paying it forward to the Verde Valley community.
Contest runs through Feb. 28. To enter, applicants must email a 150-word essay to Advanced Hair Designs at ahdgladysm@gmail.com. The essay should answer the question, “Why do you need “a lift of love” in your life? Applicants must include their full name, age, phone number and email address to qualify for entry. The winner will be notified via email. Certain restrictions, rules and limitations apply. Applicants may request complete contest rules via email.
Advanced Hair Designs is located in the Anasazi Building across from New Frontiers at 1485 S.R. 89A, Suite #2. Hours are by appointment. Call (928) 451-9339 for more information.
