Sharon’s shiny new confidence and the look of sheer joy on her face had to be the high-light for me as an exhibitor at the National Women’s Show.
It is one of many fond memories I have of Volluma making a difference in the world and it’s what makes my job so rewarding and so much fun!
Sharon was diagnosed with breast cancer about 10 years horribly enough, right after her husband unexpectedly died. As a grief stricken young mother she underwent chemotherapy and as you might expect, she lost her hair.
Now, anyone who’s familiar with chemotherapy knows that, oddly enough, the hair that re-grows after recovery may sometimes be different than what was there to start with. Thankfully, Sharon fully recovered but the problem was, her hair grew back thin and sparse, a terrible reminder every time she looked into the mirror of the cancer she had survived!
When I met Sharon as a fellow exhibitor at a the show where I was demonstrating Volluma; she had resolved, for the rest of her life, to wear the one hairstyle that hid her thinning areas. Luckily, when passing by our booth, she noticed several of the dramatic transformations taking place and decided to step up to the plate and submit herself to a demonstration.
After a brief assessment, proper colour selection and short application, I handed Sharon a mirror to inspect the results. You can imagine my horror when I saw her tears. But before I could figure out what to do next, she looked at me and smiled and I realized then that they were tears of joy! All she could sputter was how happy she was and that this was an incredible day for her. She was absolutely amazed at how great Volluma had made her hair look and feel.
For the next two mornings of the show, Sharon stopped by our booth to show us the different hair styles she had been able to wear since discovering Volluma. She said she had lived with her old “comb-over” hair style for the last 10 years and this was so exciting for her.
The show was a big success for us, but the best part of it was Sharon’s smiling, confident face – it will be with me forever!
Look good. Feel great!
