Summer is here, and it’s wedding season. Being very much an editorial stylist, I take care of a lot of brides, so I just wanted to offer congratulations to all the blushing brides! But also, I’d like to offer a piece of advice for the hair to be. Keep the hair style for that special occasion  more on the classic side of things, rather than anything too trendy. That way, it will always be in style.

  Fours days in New York City, three designers, two seconds until the models hit the catwalk, and one experience of a lifetime.

  It all began with my eight hour delayed flight out [...]

    Grow a backbone, use your brain, and be yourself.
Because really, what suits one person, may, or may not, suit you…..
Take what inspires you, what you like and enjoy, not what the media tells you is ‘in’.
Do not get a haircut just because everyone and their dog is sporting it. That should be reason enough [...]

   As I was walking through a local drugstore near my salon, I decided to have a gander at the hair care section. I couldn’t believe the selection of products they carry from professional brands.
