Woman Comes In For A Haircut And Makeup, But Is Flabbergasted When Stylist Gives Her A Blonde Pixie Cut

Jun 18, 2019

Many women experience the feeling of waking up in the morning, feeling tired of their same old look. Instead of continuing with the same beauty routine as always, it can be fun and encouraging to try something fresh! Some women even choose to have a complete makeover, like one frumpy-feeling woman named Mary did. For her 27th wedding anniversary, Mary chose to surprise her husband with a full-on, total makeover!

Mary was feeling in need of a fresh new look, like many women do as they get older. She started with an online search for makeovers, hoping to simply receive a haircut or new hairstyle, along with some make-up tips for her daily routine.

She found MakeoverGuy, as Christopher Hopkins is typically known, and made an appointment. She had no idea that she would go into his studio as one person, and leave as a new one!

Christopher Hopkins is most often recognized for his achievements in the art of beauty and makeovers, but he is also widely appreciated for his talents as an entrepreneur, producer, author, educator, and even as a singer in an orchestra.

He opened the Christopher Hopkins salon in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1990, and has developed quite a name for himself since. His customers appreciate the variety of services he offers them, and his ability to read and interpret their requests.

Some clients come in for basic haircuts and color, make-up, and waxing; however, many choose to have complete makeovers. Hopkins offers a variety of packages for makeovers, each of which includes a tutorial so that the client can repeat the look on her own.

Customers also come to Christopher for his teaching services on topics like how to dress for your body type, how to carry yourself, or how to speak impactfully.

Countless clients cite Christopher as a life-changing force in their lives. Previous clients Pam and Ann can’t say enough about Christopher’s abilities to not only revamp their looks but to boost their confidence and make them feel super important for a fun day. Mary found great recommendations for MakeoverGuy and was thrilled to get started!

Twenty years of the same haircut, with the same brand and color of hair dye, left Mary feeling frumpy and unenthusiastic about her looks. She and Christopher watched the transformation in the mirror as he chopped inches off her hair, making it shorter and shorter – as her reflection got better and better! After the final reveal of her haircut, Mary was shocked at what she saw!

She never would have imagined that a platinum blonde pixie cut was her look; luckily, Christopher knew that it was a risk worth taking! He must have even known that Mary’s husband had been asking to see her with short hair for a long time, each request having been met with an excuse from Mary.

The makeover was just the beginning! Check out the video below to see just how thrilled Mary was with her fresh new look. This anniversary present is sure to make her husband’s day, but as often happens in life, positive things can have a snowball effect!

"I'm very sorry I wasn't here a long time ago," Mary says in the video. "I've been looking frumpy for so long."

This video is a reminder to engage with all the positive opportunities that are around us, and to remind our friends to do what Mary did! Surely, Mary and her husband will both relish in the joy of her newfound confidence, and find new ways to keep improving aspects of their lives.
