Vain Salon

I am back and full of info….First of all , sorry it’s been so long but I have been all over the place checking out hair, fashion, and all around regional style. Not to mention that I have also been slaying at Vain and creating in Curtis Park.

No joke… my creative vibes have been overflowing. I have gotten so much inspiration for texture from working with natural wood and stone.   My mind was opened to new shape ideas when I started designing a two-story addition; meant to have a modern feel yet tie into Denver’s oldest neighborhood.  Color?  Wow, have I been checking out color palettes and textural blends of color and tone.

Hair seems to follow all societal design elements and the textural movement in hair is not all that different from the grainy flow of marble.  The shapes are becoming more angular, like the modern architecture that’s making a comeback, or the shapes are following a futuristic blended bubbliness.  Between the last slice and now I have visited LA, where Rock is King, and spent time in NY where high fashion with Euro flair prevails.  In the Midwest (Madison and Minneapolis) soft layers and blond locks still dominate.  The media is still pushing us towards darker locks with wave and texture as Megan Fox, Penelope Cruz, and Eva Longoria tear up the rag covers.  It is time to embrace our ever-growing ethnic culture, so Live Fast and Dye Your Hair!
