"Curlfriend on a journey" is how Paul Mitchell Educator Pamela Perettie summed up a collection that takes a naturally curly-haired model from Old Hollywood glam to edgy rocker-chick to romantic tousled ringlets. The connecting thread is a celebration of texture and transformation.

"The only consistent thing in life is change--how cool is it that we have the ability to
change hair with confidence, polish and stability?" asks Perrettie. "Our job is to introduce
our guest to their possibilities, with color and style changes. At the end of the day I want
my guest to embrace their natural texture."
