My phone camera could never do justice to how gorgeous these paintings are. Not prints, paintings. Kelly Kelly McCullough is such an incredibly talented artist/painter/musician! You may know her in the local music scene as the bass player for Coat of Arms, or form the band we had together back in the day, B-Hive.

She teaches for the Providence Art Club, and is also a wonderful teacher of drawing, painting and ukulele at the Providence Art Club, and I teaches Original Hot Yoga at Rhode Island Hot Yoga in Olneyville.
She has studied painting in Florence, Italy at the Charles Cecil Studio.
She’s an Aries likes long walks on the beach✨

Unrelated, for those wondering, the days of the week are named after the 7 inner planets, so Thursday ( when I made this) is Jupiter day. In Latin Thursday is Jovis, in Italian Giovedì. Which translates to/leads to Jupiter.

I mean… how cute is THIS?!?!

A peek into a botanical scalp/hair treatment using herbs and scalp/hair support made by local herb shop/apothecary and our sister shop ✨🌿
::
Treatment starts with a mild cleanse, followed by pressure point scalp massage and guasha using the hair/scalp serum by Botanic Providence. Star ingredients are Rosemary extract (known for its circulatory and follicle support), Lavender extract ( same as Rosemary with added benefit of calming effects), and Blue Tansy ( for its anti inflammatory properties). All infused into a combination of Argan and Abyssinian oils, known for their nourishing support for the hair.
::
The we allow the treatment to rest under red light therapy —often called Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT)—which is beneficial for hair follicles. Research shows that specific light wavelengths (usually around 650 nm to 830 nm) stimulate cellular energy production, increase blood flow, and prolong the hair growth cycle to promote thicker, healthier locks.
::
During this time we serve herbal tea, including herbs that are supportive to the nervous system and overall relaxation to help ground the person in our chair, take some deep breaths, and to have an opportunity to just be.
::
Ending with a mild cleanse, plant based lightweight conditioner, and finally an herbal rinse with herbs that fortify the hair fiber, leave them soft, shiny and naturally fragrant.
::
Finished with a lovely blow dry and style using all botanically based products.
::
It’s a mini spa session that leaves you feeling and looking amazing! Did you know that could prepare herbal infusions for you to use at home? There are 120 loose leaf herbs in stock at , all for your personal tea blending / herbal rinse blending pleasure!

Do we have some of the most fun clients? Yes..yes we do. So back in the day this super amazing college radio station gave us the best in early alternative, great radio shows, interviews and were involved with all kinds of fun events and silly shenanigans… such as the“Scream of the Week” contest.

Rumor has it that WBRU is making a comeback! We old school PVD’ers really hope that’s the case so the awesomeness can carry on through the generations of alternative music, discovery of new and cool music from everywhere, the amazing themed nights , interviews with the musicians, and of course, the super smooth, velvety “360 degree Black Experience In Sound” every Sunday, all day long.
