HOUSTON NONPROFIT Dec My Room threw a country-music-filled bash at House of Blues, where supporters two-stepped the night away and raised record-breaking proceeds, which will be used to decorate and customize hospital rooms of pediatric and young-adult patients all over the country. To date, the organization has improved the attitudes and healing process of 18,000 patients in nearly 200 hospitals.


Chaired by Laurel Bashaw and Dodi Willingham, the "Kick Up Your Boots for Kids" night included music courtesy of icons Wade Bowen and Randy Rogers. Founders Kendall Plank and Susan Plank were thrilled with the turnout and the till of $350,000, and expressed gratitude to those who donated to the cause.

Federal Grill’s Matt Brice donated a wine and whiskey dinner, which was so popular that it sold twice! The Plank family threw in a private three-day hunt at their Sycamore Springs Ranch in Kerrville, too.

With Expertise in Blondes, Extensions and More, the Janelle Alexis Team Is a Go-To Salon

YOU CAN'T LIMIT Janelle to one title – Hairdresser. Her career and business has been established and built on a strong foundation. Using her two business degrees + one more in-process, this enables Janelle and the team to deliver not only a customer-focused experience, but a foundationally solid business. There is much more than meets the eye, and in sharing a little bit about Janelle, she was not only an international hair extension educator for over 14 years, but brings extensive expertise to blondes. She rounds this out with her previously launched namesake cosmetic line, which is a perfect complement to her belief that “Beauty is our Business”.
