About Us Originally, Picasso Salon & Spa hair salon in Virginia Beach was opened in 2006 by an accomplished hair stylist and her husband. After about five years, the couple decided to retire and put the salon up for sale. Close by and looking for something more was Kim Fox. She heard about the sale of Picasso Salon & Spa and got to thinking. She always wanted to run her own salon, but knew should could not manage the business by herself. So, Kim turned to the only person she knew and trusted for help, her good friend Tammy Kabalan. The two had been working together in salons for twelve years. They shared many of the same views and ideas. With Tammy fully on-board and thrilled about owning her own salon, the women got started building their dream. It wasn't easy, and it did not happen overnight. After a little hard work and some from their friends, Picasso Salon & Spa officially opened, under the ownership of Tammy and Kim, on the 1st of September 2010. Picasso Salon & Spa is the culmination of two women's lifelong dream.

I am reminded of my privilege on a daily basis. I recently interviewed for teach for America and the last question was how will you contribute to ending racial inequality in schools across America. Wow. How will I as a single white woman end racial inequality in schools when our societies are so deeply flawed. I was deeply bothered by this question but said I would provide an equal education for all of my students in my classroom. how I would meet them where they're at, not let them fall behind, make sure they believed in themselves. I would make damned sure these kids knew how to read and I would be asking everyday to make sure their hierarchy or needs were being met. Later I wonder if should have said I would learn from the educators of color around me. That I would ask them how to best use my privilege to help these students. To ask them what they need from me. That I would advocate for my students of color to later become teachers to represent their communities. 79% of teachers in this country are white and communities are underrepresented!
