Giving Thanks

On Monday, November 19, 2012 Static Salon volunteered at the LA Downtown Women's Center. We cooked and served lunch to the women who are participants and members of the Center. We served about 100-150 women on Monday. 

We also presented the $5,000 check to the LA Downtown Women's Center from our 
Viva La Cure Breast Cancer Fundraisers.

Cooking and serving lunch for these ladies was a very humbling experience, one that none of us will ever forget. The smiles on their faces when they found out that we raised money for the DWC's Mental and Medical Health Clinic were priceless.


We are so happy and blessed that we were able to participate in helping these ladies and this wonderful Center.

"Just because I can't help a hundred, doesn't exclude me from helping one" Rick Warren


Last Friday, May 19th, 2012, Static Salon volunteered to do hair and make up for a fashion show at "A Women's Day In The Park". An annual event the Downtown Women's Center puts on for the women who frequent the center and whom are members. 
While we did hair and make up on these ladies they shared their stories with us. I can't explain how humbling this experience was. I am so glad that I was a part of this event. The women that attended this event were introduced to different health and legal services.

The women who come to the Downtown Women's Center are homeless, formerly homeless, or experiencing extreme poverty; they cope with mental and chronic illnesses, physical disabilities, chronic abuse and domestic violence, as well as aging related-issues.

There are 71 apartment style rooms at the center. The average women is a member of the DWC for 7-9 years. About 200 women visit the drop-in Day Center each day. The ladies can take advantage of many services the DWC has to offer, including: meals, showers, computers, telephones, mail, and counseling.



This is a mural at the Downtown Women's Center of the two ladies who started it all. This mural is created by the thumb prints of all the ladies who stayed at the shelter when it first opened. It is also signed by everyone.

Stressed Out? Breathe In!


I've always loved the smell of lavender, especially since it is a proven aroma to calm and relieve stress! So needless to say when I heard Aveda was coming out with "Stress Fix" a  body care line that captures the essence of lavender I was thrilled. So let me fill you in on what Aveda's Stress Fix is all about. 

The Stress Fix body care line contains a body lotion, bath salts and a balancing concentrate. Stress Fix is infused with french lavender, lavandin and clary sage from organic farms. We're excited to be able to claim that this is a 'clinically-proven stress-relieving aroma'. 



Did you know:
Stress levels in the workplace are rising with 6 in 10 workers experiencing increased workplace stress. 
44% of adults suffer health effects from stress 
95% of all physician visits are for stress-related ailments.
