Mrs. Varnell Homan was born on February 5, 1925, in Mooreville, Mississippi. In 1936, the year of Tupelo's worst tornado, she moved to Shannon, Mississippi. In 1942 she married Elkin P. Homan, and they were farmers. After her husband became a pipefitter, she and her husband and children had the opportunity to live in many places and learn many different cultures. To make a living doing something she enjoyed, Mrs. Homan became a hairdresser; later she opened her own hairdressing school. Throughout her career, Mrs. Homan has earned forty-three sets of style licenses as she continued her training throughout the United States.
