She recognizes the face just fine. What she can't quite place is the woman behind the eyes, the one who used to have plans, and opinions, and a laugh that took up the whole room. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor more than forty-five years, women have settled into Deena Von Yokes's salon chair believing they came about their hair. They didn't. Somewhere between the shampoo bowl and the mirror, they told her about the dreams they'd folded up and put away. The marriages they stayed in too long. The businesses they never started. The loneliness nobody knew about. And every so often, the flicker of excitement about starting over. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eThe salon chair was never really where I changed hair.

They were the women who gave themselves permission to begin again. Again after divorce. Again after cancer. Again after loss. Again after the last child pulled out of the driveway. Again after fifty. Again after sixty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eLipstick, Grace \u0026amp; Grit\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e is her story and, if she has done her job, yours too.
