New name, new owner and new look.
Christina Brownlee is the new and proud
owner of Aura Salon Spa & Laser. She was
born and raised in Oregon City and current-
ly lives in Molalla with husband Trevor
Brownlee and two daughters, Mckenzie and
Kylie. A huge family person she spends a lot
of time with her family. She loves to travel,
coach basketball, snowmobile, camp, ride
four-wheelers, work out and shoot her bow.
With 15 years experience in hair design,
she chose to start a business in Canby
because she loves the feeling of the town.
“You don't have to work down town
Portland to be a great hairdresser. Canby is a
big enough town to build a successful busi-
ness, yet I am still close to my family. I love
the old building with the new fresh look.
Beautiful town, wonderful people, with lots
to offer”, she says.
“I have an amazing and talented group of
girls. I couldn't be more proud to have them
by my side in this new journey. They are my
family and I love and adore each and every
one of them. I love what I do and I love
where I do it.We are excited to offer profes-
sional hair services, spa manicures and pedi-
cures, and Laser hair removal.“

Winterizing your car is essential to getting
through an Oregon fall and winter with no prob-
lems! Here are the 8 Steps to Getting Your Car
Ready for Winter.
1. Clean your vehicle inside and out. Getting your vehicle
washed and waxed helps protect the paint surfaces from
rain and snow bombardments, and it will also make debris
easier to brush off.
2. Make sure you can see. A rain storm is the worst possi-
ble time to run out of windshield washer fluid or to discov-
er your blades aren’t clearing the windshield properly.
Wiper blades usually last for about six months. Since visibil-
ity is a key
ingredient to
safety, so be
sure to invest
in some new
ones if need-
ed. Make sure
the washer
fluid is good
to -20 F. Never use plain water. It will freeze all over your
windshield.
3. Ensure that your heating system is functioning proper-
ly.While a functioning heater and defroster are necessary
to keep the windshield nice and clear, they also offer you
shelter from the cold.
4. Tires: Need we remind you that the tire is the only part
of your automobile that touches the ground? Having good
winter tires on your car is the most important thing you
can do to insure the next six months of worry free winter
driving.
5. Give your battery a little TLC. A battery gives little
notice before it dies, and very cold temperatures can
reduce a vehicle’s battery power by up to 50 percent.
6. Belts and hoses.While they are testing your battery,
make sure they inspect the belts and hoses for wear and
tear — even if you’re driving a newer car. The belts and
hoses in modern cars lead long lives, but that doesn’t mean
they don’t die.
7. Get the antifreeze mixture just right. The ideal
mixture of antifreeze (coolant) and water inside
your vehicle’s radiator is 50/50. Antifreeze is very important
to your engine. It cools the car’s engine, protects it from
freezing in the cold weather and is the key agent in provid-
ing heat inside the car that keeps your toes warm. ALSO:
Have the PH of the coolant tested after three years.
8. Prepare an emergency kit. Even the most meticulously
maintained vehicle can get stuck in a snow bank. That’s
when it pays to be prepared for an emergency with a well
stocked emergency kit.
Be prepared for the next six months by winterizing your
car. This will help you avoid the aggravation of breaking
down in the cold and save you money in the long run.
