Feel the Heat

It was hot hot, hot, hot in Miami when designers hit the runway showing their latest swimwear fashions. Even hotter was the hair! Rusk sponsored three shows and our favorite silhouettes complemented Ed Hardy designs. The hair team, led by Marcus Caillet alongside Rusk Master Stylists Nuri Lopez and Geoffrey Frost, created some outrageously wild and untamed looks.

After a summer filled with brightly colored sundresses, streaky blonde hair and flashy sandals, fall is upon us. As the weather changes, so does fashion. And as we all know, fashion and beauty go hand-in-hand. When your clients start pulling on sweaters and wrapping scarves around their necks, it’s time to talk about new hair color.

Wedding Updo #5, Michael Anthony Salons

For Laurel's fifth wedding updo, we traveled to the north side of Chicago to visit one of the four Michael Anthony Salons. We met with master stylist Matina Koronakos, who created a romantic, but modern gathering of loose curls at the crown. It was big and beautiful. Don't be fooled by the casual and soft look -- every strand was thought out and carefully pinned.

Wedding Updo #4, Avalon Salon

For this week's bridal updo, we had the chance to visit some good friends of Modern -- and they're neighbors too! Bonnie Conte and Shyla Kenrick are co-owners of Avalon Salon & Day Spa in Deer Park, Illinois, only 15 minutes from the Modern offices. When they heard about our wedding trials, Shyla jumped in with an offer to try her hand at taming Laurel's hair. The result was one of the coolest styles we've seen yet. We asked for avant garde and she delivered!

Any of you who know Modern editor and bride-to-be, Laurel Smoke, know she's no shrinking violet. So when the creative director from Salon 1800 used the words "big" and "bold" in her e-mail, we knew Laurel would have to check it out. Extra points go to Becki for describing the bun she imagined as "a la Carrie Bradshaw." Sold!
