OUR 2023 SIMPLE PREP SHEET
Hi good ol' Shooting Star family! I have pretty much everything up here on this website. We sure like to blog and stay current! We wanted to write out a little prep guide for our clients to make the most of your session. I do get questions, from time to time, about how our stylizing services work. I try to be as cohesive as possible to make the experience fun for my customers, and I keep the process very easy and convenient for everyone.
