Always Hello! Always Good Buys…People you want to meet!

Pastel Posse

Yes, Hillary, in my case (or that of my hair) it DOES take a Village.
I generally pay homage to Sakai-san at least twice weekly while in Tokyo. As the trip wears on, my extensions wear out–so, let’s just say I’m thrilled to have someone as skilled (with as much patience) as “Yuta.”

Sakai-san takes special care at Pastel Salon

It takes a solid two hour clip of time each session, but truly priceless (and, hey, at least I can sleep). He’s even given son Lucien a clip.

Kudos again to the Pastel Team.

Trend: Permanent Eyelashes*

EVER Want those luxe ‘Bambi-esque’ eyelashes that only young deer and little boys seem to possess with equal ease?

With Jessica at Glam Hair salon

North Miami’s Jessica at GLAMHAIR Salon may have the secret to batting your baby blues (gorgeous greens, haunting hazels, beautiful browns….) with more swish.

There have been scores of topical products approved lately—sort of a ‘Rogaine’ for your eyelids. A few are available by prescription only–probably a good idea since becoming BLIND but having great lashes won’t really accomplish your likely desired result.

We did have one friend (who due to the needless potential for wasteful litigation shall remain nameless) who used one dermatologist-recommended mascara. We at YYC were unaware that she had begun this protocol; actually, we just thought that she had been on a two week
crying jag. The rims of her upper and lower lids were iodine stained this brownish rust hue that is noted as a side effect of the ‘treatment’…..she did maintain, however, that her lashes were longer. Isn’t that special….

Jessica prepping to apply permanent eyelashes

Anyway, we opted for method two–the Faux FIX as it were. For $150 and an hour of ‘upclose and personal’ time–Jessica was able to painstakingly apply my new fringe lash by lash. You have an option of selecting lengths and colour as well as style.

Jessica applying permanent eyelashes

Jessica (cell: 305 494-6867) uses En Vogue lashes and recommends water-based mascara such as Ardell Lash Magic (available at Sally’s) after application.

Phoebe of Rare Accents

Kudos to talented ‘Phoebe’ (aka ‘Tiffany’) Clum of Rare Accents Salon in scenic (ahem) Palm Harbor, Florida for her tireless endeavour to whip my locks into shape. It does indeed ‘take a Village’ to plaster my locks in place. She makes it all look so easy.

Phoebe of Rare Accents

REAL (and consistent) Talent is hard to find.

I’ve scoured venues in: London (Harvey Nick’s and Harrod’s salons), New York-(Frederic Fekkai), Miami (Ling Chow), Washington, D.C. (Christophe), Los Angeles, (Jose EBER), PARIS (Christophe Robin), Tokyo (Pastel). I have No Choice, I can barely comb out all this hair on my own—forget style…and I can honestly attest to the skill Ms. Clum has exhibited.

Phoebe of Rare Accents

I thank ‘Phoebe’ and you will, too……colour and extension specialty.
