LACK OF COMMENTS
As pointed out by one of my BFFCCs, my template would not allow comment posting on my blog. As I attempt to figure this out (hopefully by this weekend), I've installed a comment box on the side of blog (please see to your left) so in time, please feel free to use that! But be nice, please... only kidding.
In other news, Salon 52's Contessas took place November first. More formally known as the Canadian Hairstylist of the Year Awards, the Contessas are Canada’s longest-running and most prestigious awards honouring excellence and creativity in salons and among salon professionals across Canada. Not only do they focus on hair styling, they also judge on colour, texture, and make-up. The link is posted above, so I urge people to please check out the Salon 52 website because these stylists are talented. We're not talking about your typical "haircut and style" kind of look. The artists volunteer their time to specifically craft their styles on their models heads, are involved in selecting the make-up and wardrobe for their models, and oversee the photoshoots for submission to the Contessas. How would I know, you ask?
Yes, I admit, that was me last year as a submission for Sherlyn Sampang of Winnipeg's Vault Salon and Spa located right in The Exchange. She won Student/Apprentice Hairstylist of the Year last year, and let me tell you, the process was daunting. Sherlyn had to do a series of styles for photograph and submission, and I myself was at the salon for about 12 hours for my styling and shooting alone. Yes, I also admit that that is my hair and it is not a hat as some people have questioned. Feel free to take a look at the site, because I kidd you not, quite a few of the submissions are incredible. Also a side note, eTalk finally did a segment highlighting one of my favourite fashion websites! Whowhatwear posts up and coming fashion trends, as well as fashion highlights from celebrities and non-celebrities alike. One of my favourite things about whowhatwear is how nearly all the items they feature on their site are available for purchase online! Just shop the store! If you haven't seen on my blog, whowhatwear also releases periodical videos appropriate for trends for the season. So if you're curious, hit that link above and check it out! Till next time!
