Geeky New Year -
10-01-07, 12:57 AM
5 Years ago today, Salon Geek opened its doors to the world and had no freaking clue who was coming to dinner!
Over the past several years, this site has evolved left right and centre from a personal home page to now become the worlds largest community of salon professionals. Happy Birthday salongeek.com The past year saw everything from another server move to a radical shift in direction - changing the focus from nails to full salon services. Here were the stats this day last year:
Here they are now:
Cool eh? Not only over the last year did we see site changes and server changes, but we saw the moderator team congeal to what it is today. Without these guys busting their ass volunteering everyday, the site would quickly spin into Chaos. Therefore I would like to give a huge thank you to our wicked team of moderators that do a super job of keeping this site what it is: The worlds greatest spot for salon professionals!
And finally, I want to thank each and every 13.5K of you. In the end, it is you guys that have made this one of the greatest on line communities in the world. nJoy all |

Happy Birthday Salon Geek!
And a big thank you to you, Sam, for starting what has truly become more than just a site - it's a community of wonderful people with a shared thirst to be the best there is, and I am constantly inspired and humbled by how much passion, knowledge and willingness to share and learn there is within our ranks. Here's to another fabulous five years (and many more beyond)! Andy x P.S. Big cheers with full glasses of plonk to our mods - you guys rock! |

Happy Birthday Salon Geek. A special Thanks to Sam for creating this fantastic forum and to all the Mods for keeping it what it is.
My highlight/s firstly all the support I received when Mum passed over, I don't know what I would have done without all your kindness, my other highlight that I am so proud of is Winning the Thread Competition and getting all those Geekmollians again without the support of all the Geeks in Geekdom and all their votes the Competition would have not been what it was. Keep up the good work guys Geeks Rocks. Joan |

Happy Birthday to The Salon Geek
2006 has had a lot of highs, evolving from The Nail Geek into The Salon Geek was a huge one and a very successful one from the number of threads/posts we're getting on The Skin Geek forum Personal highlights, blimey there are a few lol... Sam asking Fiona and me to join the moderator team was an honour, hard work but it's fab When the thought of having a Brave Day was put into my head from a passing comment by Christine (Urban Geek) I hoped it would work, it did more than that, it's been a huge success and that wouldn't have been possible without you guys posting photo's of your work and being brave, it's now an ongoing thing and we're on to our third one next Monday Thank you Sam for providing us all with not only somewhere we can come to bounce ideas around and receive information and help, but for giving us somewhere that's a happy community where a lot of friendships have been made Where's the champers smiley when you need one? lol |
