It is a rarer quality to have moments that stop and give you cause for pause. More times than not, it seems we are driven by a deadline, a pressure, or our “inner critiquer”, which feeds us messages of doubt or insecurities. Working with Ava Cowan has literally “stopped me in my tracks“-it has caused me to pause and take note of the absolute blessings that I have received while working with her. It takes a unique individual, an exceptional rarity, to be the type of inspiration to cause a person to stop and take note of their blessings and it should be of no surprise to know that Ava Cowan is one of a kind.

You can rest assured I will not look the exact same in every picture or show I compete in. I love trying new looks and colors! If you don’t like what I come up with, no worries, I will most likely be changing looks soon. So I brought a picture of Raquel Welsh into my salon today. Marisa at PeterMark Salonis whipping up a new color and Peter cuts my hair and adds pieces of Platinum Seamlessfor length and added variety of color. I am venturing into the “warm” colors. I saw some recent pictures and I know I can do better. I may throw a twit pic out there today.

]]> http://www.avacowan.com/2011/07/my-newest-videos/ There is NO Quick Fix A woman came into my store yesterday and brought with her a crumpled up piece of paper that contained her new “diet”.  A friend put together a very loosely written set of directions.  Driving all the way from Ft. Lauderdale which is 30 miles away, I believe she was really looking for me to tell her something magical, I could just feel it.  Mind you, that friend really gave her no direction with so much as even a sample meal plan, so I did understand the bewilderment!  She was told to eat a certain amount of protein, carbs and fat, and that was about it.   It was really bare bones, and quite frankly I don’t think she fully understood what she needed to do.  She was fresh off the HCG diet and immediately gained back all of the weight tipping the scale at an all time high.  So she was desperate and looking for answers.  I was about to give her the answers to the test, and it wasn’t going to be pretty.  The slow and painful truth was that it takes time!  I know all about wanting fat loss to be much more immediate than it really is.  Mind you, my stomach is completely empty so when I spoke to her about how little you actually get to eat to be in a deficit of calories, I was quite passionate about what I was saying.  She proceeded to looked at me like I had three heads, but if anyone was going to convince her that her protein shake didn’t need milk AND a banana, it was going to be me.  (We were discussing supplementing her vegetarian diet with Myofusion, so the idea of only needing water was being discussed.)
