Hi Ladies!

Today I had one of the most unfortunately things happen to me. I am really devastated and tired and I have a headache.

My hair salon almost burned down this morning. It is still standing but it has extensive water and smoke damage.

The business next door caught fire and is a total loss but thank you Lord mine only suffered water and smoke damage. It should be up and running again by September.

So the channel 2 news was there and gave me an interview. They were very nice and sympathetic.

I put all the details in a video.

Can you all please remember me, my family and business in your prayers? I need lots of strength right now. TIA

So sorry to hear this. Glad that no one was hurt. In time, you can rebuild, but you can't bring people back.

You are in my prayers, I know the hardship of losing a business to fire. I've seen my parents go through it 3 times. Hope you will get back on your feet to do what you enjoy while helping others. Sending prayers your way now.

Sending your prayers and positive thoughts to give you the strength to rebuild your business even better than before.

Once you get thru the initial shock, grief and insurance paperwork, perhaps you should consider reaching out to another local salon where you can rent a chair to continue to provide services to your clients and maintain your cashflow as you rebuild.

Best of luck to you!!

Very sorry to hear of your troubles. Your insurance will allow you to come back better and stronger. You are still blessed with life, health and strength. You also have your good reputation. It is something to me to know about a stylist in another state when I have never been a customer. God has a lovely plan for your restoration and a fabulous future. This will be part of your success story!

Sorry to hear! I read something that Joel stated this week, the gist: "No weapon formed against you will prosper. It may form, it may come against you, but it won't prosper." This is just temporary -- you will survive this and your business will flourish once more. Praying for your strength and recovery!
