MelanoTresses website changes

We went back through everything you have sent us since August. Here is each change you asked for, in your words, and what we have done. Every picture has a code (B2, S3, P4…), so if you want something different, just give the code or send a new photo.

Pictures from Manny

“With Manny at some point this week he will take photos of me in action and that can too be added and dotted about on the site”

You, 10 September

Done

Your real photos are now dotted about the site: your headshot on the homepage (a new “Meet the founder” strip) and the About page, your salon on the Method page, and your styling work on the homepage, Services and Testimonials. When Manny sends his photos of you at work, they go into the same spots.

Just confirm

  • Manny: please send the photos from the 10 September shoot. Priscilla: anyone in them who should not be shown? (You mentioned the curl-definition client does not want her face in videos.)

Children’s services

On the website now · melanotresses.com/services
All seven children’s services you listed on 21 August are on the Services page, and Children (6–18) can be booked. The one gap: MelanoSilk for children has no price or booking slot, so it says “availability to confirm”.
