Premiere Orlando International Beauty Event

This past weekend I attended the Premiere Orlando International Beauty Event.  Premiere Beauty Show is one of the biggest beauty industry trade shows in the country, and it took place right in my backyard, at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando!  I had the pleasure of working with Beth Minardi coloring collections of blondes, brunettes, and redheads.  It was wonderful to spend the weekend with one of my mentors in the beauty industry and to be able to collect thoughts about the Joico Haircolor lines Vero K-pak color  and Vero K-pak Chrome. Overall, the beauty show was a memorable weekend filled with a lot of creativity, inspiration and talent - I can't wait for next years show! Check out some pictures I took at the event.

*Tips: Put the Right Hair Color Into Your Career

Listen up Ladies...


It's more important than ever to put the right hair color into your career because hair color could mean the difference of several rungs up the corporate ladder. 

Career women today need to pay as much attention to color as they do to how they dress and groom themselves. 
No matter what stage in a woman’s career, hair color can work with or against her. Unfortunately, there is still a gender imbalance in the work place, with women still under-represented in high-powered positions. For that and many other reasons, it is important to be aware of how they portray themselves in the corporate world.

Hair coloring tips for women in the workplace:
·         For women graduating college, leave behind the bleached-blonde locks and stripy highlights and opt for a more subtle shade. Think blonde on blonde shade, like Jennifer Aniston.
·         Take in consideration your budget, availability and lifestyle. For those with limited time and budget, I suggest a low-maintenance technique I call Butterflies, where I create beautiful color through mid-lengths and ends, like Eva Longoria.
·         Cover those grays. Gray hair ages women 10-15 years. Need I say more?
·         Understand and analyze your skin tone, eye color and existing hair color. Your hair color palate should follow along.
·         Maintain healthy and shiny hair. And above all, have a professional appearance from head to toe.
