Not only she is an editorial fashion hairstylist and star of her reality show, she is also a writer of her own book. Readers may seem to think that the book is about hair but it is not; it is completely about her life, how she goes through her mistakes along with her success, and everything else in between. Tabitha Coffey shares her compelling stories in the book “It’s Not Really About the hair”. A terrific event occurred on January, 2011 where Tabitha Coffey was in the Mall of America to have her book signed.
In the Mall of America, Sunday is not always a crazy day likes Saturday but was unexpectedly crowded on that day. People were so exciting and enthusiastic waiting to see her. In front of Nordstrom, people were busy chatting with one another and waiting patiently until she arrived for the event.
By the time the event started, the line was already packed with people. Among a lot of people, there was a disabled woman that let herself to wait in the line trying to get her signature. However, she was given her own space to wait in the side next to the stage. As Tabitha Coffey arrived in Nordstrom court, people screamed and called her name. It was quite a moment to see that, audiences took pictures and recorded her. Tabitha Coffey responded to the audiences questions. It is about whether she hires stylist or not, the new trend of 2011, her pet peeve, her “AHA” moment, and how to lead the legacy the salon into the world. After Ms. Coffey answering those questions, the audience came up to the stage one by one to have the book signed.

Audience talks to her during the signing session. |
About hiring stylist, she indeed looks for a stylist and thinks about expanding to school of hairdressers in the coming up project. The trend haircut for 2011 is definitely short but short relevant, much more texture, and heavy trim. It looks like Emma Watson whom she loves. Her pet peeve is laziness, “don’t like people to be lazy and dirty”, answering the audience. Sharon, a woman in the audience, asked about the “ AHA” moment of Tabitha’s life. She said that it is about realizing to be comfortable who you are and stand for that. Relatively, it does not matter it is accepting; its matter is you accept who you really are. She hopes legacy of the salon in the industry is okay to be hairdresser without people thought that they are not smart. Likewise, hairdressers are creative people.

The signing event was amazingly great. Tabitha is such an influence towards her audiences. A modern-chic lady was who with her friends got her signature and said “what a such classic woman she is”.
