A Rainy Summer Day in Rosemary

It's a rainy day in Rosemary and we are loving it. I just got back in the salon from the Olive Oil Company and they are busy, busy. The salon is pretty busy for a Wednesday in August, with just enough down time to get a tea and post to the blog. Brian is at the OOCo. having lunch with friends, something he can't do so easily during the months from October through June. Kristin is taking some time off to be with her family, unfortunately her father is very ill and Alia is cleaning and getting to some chores that slip by in season. Otherwise it is business as usual. After walking back to the salon from the Olive Oil Company, I passed Lourdes and waved as she was finishing up with someone's nails, gave a nod to Kelly at Everything But the Girl and waved to a few neighbors on the street, I am thinking this is truly the most happening, most hip, most genuine neighborhood in Sarasota. Kudos to all of our Rosemary neighbors!!

Polly's new do

This is Polly's new look.  She actually has very curly hair.  Now she has straight hair with bangs! Polly teaches Graphic Design at Ringling and creates all of the fun graphics in our ads (one of them can be seen on the wall behind her).  She is also and most importantly my sister.

Now that Polly has had so many compliments on her straight hair, we decided to make it straight permanently, well not in like forever, but for more than just a day.     

Here is a pic just before we gave her the Keratin Infusion Treatment.  The Infusion will keep the hair straight for a few shampooings and is only 25.00 per treatment.  

Muriel

Muriel decided that she wanted to be "very" blonde.  It took two sessions, but the color that Brian achieved was spectacular!  He applied a light base color and many, many fine highlights.  The sleekness of the cut really shows the special quality of this color.  I only wish that my photographic ability would have done the same.

Laura

Another curly girl.  Laura has lots of wonderful curl.  The cut is slightly beveled in the back to give lift and fullness to the back.  We did put in some longer layers to help the curls  form and give the hair bounce.  We used the Deva Curl products from start to finish.

Chris Goes Curly

As with many clients, Chris didn't realize how much curl she really has.  With the proper cut, the proper products and the proper drying technique a person's curl can really emerge.  Chris new that the back of her hair had some curl, but didn't really know how much.  With a slightly different cut and the new Deva Curl products Chris has a whole new look.  After the cut we used Deva's Angell then diffused her hair and the result was.....lots and lots of curl. 

Tobey

This is Tobey, he is a Ringling Alum and  one of the most talented artists in Sarasota.  Tobey just had his hair cut by Brian and he looks terrific!  If any one saw Brian's film, Tobey was the artist who painted the giant painting of Brian when he was a little boy that was in the film.  

Judy

Both Kristin and I work on Judy's hair.  Kristin does the color and I do the cut.  We have been working on this look for some time.  I think this last cut and color really pulled it together.  The color needed to be in just right places for the type of cut we have been working towards.  Judy had her make up done just before we took this shot, by Meaghan Maureen.  Meaghan is a new feature at the little salon.  Every Thursday she is in the salon to offer eye brow shaping and make up application.  Meaghan shapes brows with a tweezer, not wax, as to get a more defined line.  She is tops in her field!

A New Look for Vickie

Vickie was in the mood for a new look, so we gave her a fuller bang and a more defined Bob.  There is still a bit of layering to give the entire look more fullness.  I think this look with the heavy bang really brings out her eyes!

The Rosemary Progressive Evening was a huge success.  We had lots of people just having a great time walking through the streets and visiting with one another.  It was like a huge block party with great music, compliments of our very own Brian J Boyd.  Melvyn did the finish work on his models under the stars, even though it was very windy!  Everything but the girl showed off their vintage clothing, Pure gave mini facial treatments, Lourdes was giving mini manicures and The Olive Oil Co. was full of happy folks.  Above are just a few pictures taken, check back and we will have a few more coming.
