Laura The Brow Queen

Ok ladies......we've all read it many, many times in countless magazines: The eyebrows accent the eyes and frame the face. But what if your eyebrows have been overplucked or incorrectly shaped, or you've never had your eyebrows done before? Answer: Laura the Brow Queen!!! Let me just tell you.....this wonderful lady knows her brows. She doesn't just wax your brows. She takes the time to study your facial features and educates you on what she's going to do and what YOU need to do (or not do in most instances). It had been years and years since I had my eyebrows done professionally. Laura worked her magic on me and put me on "eyebrow rehab". Translation: Don't touch your eyebrows! Do you know how hard that is to NOT groom and pluck your brows for a whole month? But I have followed her rules and it's paying off. Laura is absolutely amazing.

So lesson learned here: Go buy yourself a "brow makeover." Your brows will thank you! www.LauraTheBrowQueen.com

New! Mrs. North Texas 2010

I am so excited to announce that I have recently been crowned Mrs. North Texas 2010. I will be competing March 28, 2010, for the Mrs. Texas International Title in San Antonio, TX. My platform is "Passionate for Preemies." I'm teaming up with the March of Dimes to help bring more awareness of the growing rate of premature births and what we can do to get these numbers down. This subject is near and dear to my heart as my youngest son, Cruz, was delivered 7 weeks premature. He spent 3 weeks in the NICU at Presbyterian Hospital in Plano (now Texas Health Presbyterian Plano Hospital). He just turned 1 on August 22.

I am also looking for sponsors. If you know of anyone that might be interested, please contact me personally at kristiengstrom@hotmail.com. Sponsorships are very affordable (ranging from $100-$1000). I am also available for appearances.

Stay tuned for future posts. And be sure to make a donation to my March for Babies walk coming up in April 2010. I have a lofty goal of $1000, but I know with your help I can reach this goal!
