A MESSAGE FROM “GIMME BEAUTY”
Let’s slow down with GIMME Beauty 🧘♀️
This past weekend, we hosted a breathwork class with our friends at GIMME Beauty for Slow Down Saturday. We did some breathing at Open, went home with GIMME goodies, and enjoyed some coffee & bites afterwards.
For everyone subscribed to our newsletter, GIMME is giving out FREE Hairband fitting kits, so you can find out the best hair band for your hair type! Just enter your email here to receive this free gift.
GIMME Beauty is a family-owned beauty company that was founded in 2007, specializing in hair tools and accessories that are designed for every unique hair type. From hair-type specific brushes and bands, to their cult-favorite shower tools - they make every day haircare a little brighter for you.
They believe haircare isn't one size fits all, and your products shouldn’t be either. So let's end bad hair days together.
Xoxo, GIMME Beauty
