BE RADIANT, BE CONFIDENT, BE YOU! Here’s how we can help.

Hello beautiful soul,

I hope this email finds you well. Actually, I hope it finds you feeling awesome but If you’re like most people these days, the reality is you may be feeling a weird mix of fatigue, overwhelm maybe some fear, like you’re a little bit stuck but also grateful. Underneath it all, do you also get a sense there is something brewing, like change is upon us you are almost excited?

If you can relate to any of this, I recommend you stream Katy Perry’s new album, “Smile” Dance it out and keep reading.

Katy Perry is no longer the center of the pop music universe. But her new album, “Smile,” has enough feel-good energy to help cure end-of-summer gloom. “All I’m asking of a Katy Perry song is for it to make me feel marginally happier than I did three and a half minutes prior.”  - Lindsay Zoladz, The New York Times

Over a decade ago, the last time Katy Perry was super popular, I experienced a rom-com style epiphany in my car while listening to the radio. 

I’d been blonde my entire life until I got pregnant with my second kid, when suddenly, my hair started getting dark. I mean absolutely no offense to the stunning brunettes of this world; it just wasn’t me and I felt like a cliche, frumpy, exhausted mom. So what the heck does this have to do with Katy Perry? 

That day driving with my kids in the backseat, I heard part of a radio interview with Katy Perry. Of course they asked her one of those hard hitting journalistic questions reserved only for women 🙄 “What is your natural hair color?”  She replied, and I quote,  “My natural color is the most boring dishwater, squirrel brown.” She went on to say that she didn’t feel that color represented who she was as a person, internally so she started coloring her hair all the crazy, vibrant colors that her fans came to know and love her for.  

Let that sink in for a minute. Katy Perry’s whole popstar identity changed because of her hair color. I don’t know why, but I had one of those aha moments like a lightning bolt straight to my heart.  Shi*t!  My hair was also the color of a squirrel drowning in dishwater and that didn’t represent me. I had no idea why I waited so long to do something about it.  I went home that day and booked an appointment for full highlights and a haircut. 

This was a BIG deal for me. I know the moms will relate. I had an infant and toddler at home and taking time for myself felt selfish. But I decided at that moment to make myself a priority.  

And guess what? I walked out of that appointment a different person. Well, I shouldn’t say a totally different person. I felt like me again - not “mom Perrin” or “wife Perrin” but me - Perrin. 

That’s when I realized just how much personal care matters. And in that moment the idea for Orange Poppy Spa was born.  

So, let me ask you, how do you want to present yourself to the world right now? 

Even more importantly, what can you do to feel like the most authentic and powerful version of yourself?   

Who do you want to see looking back at you in the mirror? 

For me, I feel like mixing it up a bit. I just had Tracy color my hair a gorgeous copper with golden highlights -- something a little bit more fiery and deep than my blonde of a decade ago. 

How about you?
