March 2017 marks the ten year anniversary for A Personal Touch, a salon on Main Street in Montevallo.
Such a huge accomplishment typically involves a lot of celebrations and excitement, but that's not the case for the women at A Personal Touch. At the end of the month, Kathy Wright and her partner Amy Vanderslice-Hall, will be out of business.
"We had 30 days to make other arrangements," Kathy said.
Kathy and Amy have worked side by side for almost twenty years. According to Kathy, they are more than just friends.
"She and I have been working together since '99. We are basically family."

"It honestly took us a good three days to absorb the news. We were very, very devastated."
Luckily, Kathy found a way to continue her hair styling career elsewhere. She bought a portable building that she will keep on her property in order to do hair from home.
"The majority of my clients are fine with that. They're willing to come to where I'm at. Thank goodness."
Even though Kathy is having to leave her business unexpectedly, she's finding the silver lining in a sad situation.
"Things happen. Change happens. I know there's lot of growth going on in this town and that part is good."
Her partner, Amy, is also continuing her career with another local hair salon.
