Beauty Bus

December 7, 2021

Beauty Bus testimonial!

MARIBEL -HOME VISIT CLIENT

“Human contact! I was looking forward to contact with other people!”

On a late summer morning, Maribel greeted Beauty Bus Lead Beauty Professional, Elena Vazquez, and Beauty Bus Volunteer, Sybrena Miles with great excitement. As a longtime Beauty Bus client, Maribel knew just what to expect. She  looked forward to getting her neglected nails freshened up and she knew there were goodies to examine in her Bag of Beauty. But the big treat? Maribel was most excited to chat with her visitors.

“I’ve been stuck in the house the last three or four months. The heat makes my condition worse, so it’s very difficult to get out,” she explained. After setting up and settling in, the conversation among the women ranged from the heat, to summer haircuts, family dynamics, old boyfriends, funky genetics, and ants.

Maribel conveyed the challenge facing many people who live with serious illness: isolation. Beauty Bus is proud to support people who are going through a difficult time. There is magic in bringing the outside world in to people who are isolated. We often hear that it makes people feel “more human” and “more normal.” And we think that’s more beautiful!
