Locks of Love

With a love for all things wedding, Christine (aka Crystine’s Makeup and makeup artist extraordinaire) and I have always wanted to add hair styling to our repertoire. Clients are always asking Christine if she knows anyone that can style hair and now we can say “I DO”.

 
Hanging up our oven mitts and makeup brushes temporarily, Christine and I attended an intensive week of hair styling. Learning everything from setting the hair, blow-drying, straightening, curling, braids, twists, back combing, French rolls, chignon buns and variations in between – on the last day we got to pick our own style and create it on each other – so much fun! We definitely picked up a lot from the course and can’t wait to start creating hair styles on beautiful brides.

 Brushes, bobby pins, hair spray, Parlux and GHD; our teacher Sam shows us how it's done.

And a couple of the hair styles we created (the bun on the top right is inspired by Carrie's hair at Charlotte's wedding to Trey)

Christine chose for herself a half-up/half-down pony as worn by Olivia Wilde

Ta-Da! We altered in slightly to make it look more like a ponytail

 While I was Ga-Ga over the hair bow...

Lady Gaga- eat your heart out! I love bows!
