Recently, we held an event at our Rittenhouse location to show our guests how easy some fabulous party hairstyles can be.
We set out to inspire – maybe teaching a client who wears a bob that a few finger wave clips and a little gel can transform their chic, flat, day look into a waved evening do in about an hour. The tools can be bought on line and you can take them with you to your stylist to transform you.
Or how about the ever famous and feminine “Forties” look?
Just a mere curling iron, roller clips and waving clips can transform anyone’s shoulder length hair in about 30 minutes. The pin curls stand up on the crown and alternate everywhere else.
It’s New Year’s, so why not make it fun?

Did you know that you can buy the finest little party hats that secure with a long elastic band at your local party store? Putting it in place and bunching the hair around it gives the most gorgeous presentation of glamour and fun!
A HUGE topic on our agenda was deconstruction. Julia Roberts’ long hair is pulled back leaving the shorter pieces to create a deconstructed bob look that softens her face.
For this look below, all you really need to know is how to make a loose French braid. Put them at different places on the head, blouse them out with your fingers, and you’ll have a look that will really draw the eye. Believe it or not , with one lesson from your stylist, girls with longer hair can do this one at home by themselves.

Trendy was my idea of making the Mo Hawk a fashion must. Curl the hair tightly, then brush it out, securing the sides tightly with pins and arranging the loose hair on the top middle of the head. Believe me, this makes for a head turning look that says, “WOW!”
Let the Holiday Parties and Party Hairstyles begin!
Just remember – in all the fun, it is the season of giving.
