Web design

[Stephen Partington]

Some of the big things that draw me to a site like that would be the
quality of the work, and pictures to do that. Most cell phones will not do
that for you (some can do that very well now). Description of the services
in detail that would be available. and pricing/location information.

spend less time in talking about how great you are, but instead what you
will be doing for me, or more specifically my hair.

>From there, I went with wordpress. if her site will do that its a pretty
good non technical way to go. you can lock it down and make it a view only
site very easily, and with a couple of add ins add a nice gallery so that
people can see her work and she can post it quickly. then she can have blog
like articles and all of that can be posted to Facebook and Google+ (likely
more).

that will get her several mediums at once, and its all reasonably simple to
do with web gui tools. and it can be rather visually pleasing with lots of
graphical visibility possible, and there are people that make custom themes
if you cannot find the perfect one.

but a collage will be a graphical process and a good main image for this
sort of thing.
