Emma Woods: Makeup Artist & Stylist

The petition to open salons in Santa Clara County on July 13/14 was denied, still no re-opening date. I miss you

Happy mother's day to all you kick ass mom out there doing all you can and giving all you got. You are seeing and appreciated. Major hugs to you all tody.

Currently my word of the moment is comfort. In the business industry comfort is one of those bad words that always leads to how you're lacking growth. "You need to get out of your 'comfort zone' to really grow."- god give me a break...life is tough enough sometimes. To be honest in this moment I am really lacking comfort; geez aren't we all... When I think of comfort I think of a hug, a warm all encompassing hug. I am such a hugger, our new reality will likely lack hugs for ...a long time. I miss the physical connection between people, I was used to touching peoples' heads all day everyday, right up in their person space, I like it in people's bubbles. I have no bubble and now I live in an iso-bubble...that reality check is a tough pill to swallow. But to look on the bright side, I am seeing a level of understanding between strangers that brings comfort & empathy. People being willing to accept a more realistic performance standard. It's humanizing & honestly a much needed check point for us. Wishing for a more gentle approach on the limbo we are all feeling. Virtual long hug to you all. See more

Hey....I Miss you. Another month of S.I.P. Really it's R.I.P. ...to my social life, my sanity, & my bank account. I am really missing my chats with clients. @andresbarberservice said it best. A huge part of our time together are our chats. I have been so lucky to have a few clients think about me during this time we are ALL experiencing. People have sent me "donations" for appts that would have happened if this bizzare coronapolypse didn't happen. Receiving said "donations..." has me wishing for the ability to offer something for it. So like Andre said if any of my clients want to chat via zoom and see my mug, text, or call we can have scheduled 30 min vent sessions for a small donation. And for anyone like me who cannot work during this time and is experiencing financial hardships from this pandemic, I see you and if you need to chat you can also do so without a donation, because I miss you and I miss our hang time and I want to be able to offer up something up during this time. DM or Text me dates I will likely schedule sessions while Levi naps. Trying to get creative during these strange times. See more
