   DB Sutton and Company in Chapel Hill 4_2265P I N this to pinterestA couple of weeks ago, Becky and I met Cara, hair stylist extraordinaire from DB Sutton and Company, at Creatives for a Cause.  She had a fun braid demonstration and spoiled us with some fun hair products so we can braid away in our free time.

We were in love with the fine art of braiding and decided to treat ourselves to some one-on-one time with Cara to celebrate Becky’s birthday.  We met Cara at her hair studio in Chapel Hill and relaxed while she played with our hair.  We joked and laughed the whole time – and looked great in record time!  Becky’s hair is perfect for braids, so I expected hers to look as adorable as it did.  I was concerned about mine – since I have so.much.hair.  I may have needed one or two (okay, maybe like five) extra bobby pins – but the end result was amazing.

We were so excited! Braids, just like the perfect pair of jeans, can be dressed up or dressed down.  While Becky went to a lunch date right after – I rocked mine at carpool and got so many compliments.  Surprisingly mine was intact for a couple of days, so definitely worth the investment.

Intricate braids and chignons took center stage at the New York Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2016 shows – so you know they are going to be ‘hot’ (no pun intended) this summer.

Oh, and one of the most wonderful things about DB Sutton and Company is online booking (see here) We definitely used it to book our braids.
