No, no. You guys can. But the traffic, everybody else can't. It's getting bad and things are changing.

Well, okay, so we opened our salon 25 years ago, going on 26. We were like 20, let's see, 26 and 28 years old, young kids. And our mentor and friend, Alan, he always said, he gave us a name and it's like, it means a couple of terms. It means kind of crazy hair, but if you Google it, it's like a group of like-minded people working towards the same goal or vision. And it fit perfectly.

And it was so edgy for its time. And it didn't even say salons. And people just thought, lunatic fringe, what is this? But it's really stood out. And after him saying, you should use this, we just couldn't think of anything else. It was so good. You couldn't top it. And it's become a household name. We have 10 locations. We're a franchise company now.

And we have locations outside of Salt Lake City. We have locations in Boise, in Idaho, and all the rest are in Utah. And with the right partners, we're willing to open more. But you know, our salon's been on fire the last 25 years. And, you know, it was a little dream. We just wanted one salon and had no idea it would become what it is. So we do own a cosmetology school.

So we have like, you know, two to 300 students a year that we educate, train them on business and hair. And that's with Paul Mitchell. And then, you know, they spread their wings and they either work for us or we train hairdressers to go work wherever they want. Wow. I wish we saw more of that on the show. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, we've only filmed once in the salon. I'd love to share more of that. We also own a beauty supply distributorship. So we're very immersed in the beauty industry. And we have been for years. You know, we do a lot of fundraising with our school that we've been involved in just a lot of great things in the community through our businesses.

Yes. Thank you.

Yes. Yeah. My dad came to America, to Salt Lake City, Utah, when he was 17. My mother came when she was eight and they met here as young adults. We were all born here. And, you know, it's great because my dad came here with... one suit that someone loaned him. And someone asked him when he came to America, well, where's your stuff? And he said, this is it. That's all he came with.

He didn't even have a toothbrush till he moved here. My dad didn't have shoes till he was 11. So we were raised very humble, but I thought I was rich because my dad worked hard. We had a nice house. He drove a Cadillac and I thought I was rich. I always wanted nice things because I loved girlish things. And My mom passing away, like I didn't even have mascara or lip gloss around the house.

So I have the whole big fat Greek wedding history. huge family and the community, the Greek community here is also really tight. So like I was immersed in all things Greek. We Greek danced.

My dad, you know, even though Salt Lake was, you know, really a stronger Mormon population when we moved here and we were the only like Greeks in our neighborhood for miles surrounded like by Mormons. We love the Mormons and they were very supportive of our family. But we still kept our Greek culture going strong and continue to go to our church and keep the traditions going.
