Modern Salon has approached us about running the 100 Years of Hair project in their (June... August...) SEPTEMBER issue!!! WAHOOO!!!!
The crazy thing is, that's been just the beginning! We've had a few other interested parties inquire about publishing the photos as well!!! See what a little creativity and a some elbow-grease can accomplish???
There is a great deal more involved in all this than simply turning over a disc of images!
We've been double checking release forms, crossing "t"s and dotting "i"s, and making a bona fide story out of this whole process.
We've been writing analysis of each decade -- naming the "look", capturing what our inspiration was for each decade, and detailing how we accomplished each look. We've even RE-searched our research to make sure it's accurate.
Davines, manufacturers of hair care, styling products, and MASK hair-color (and staples of the Byu-ti shopping experience) kindly sponsored our shoot and supplied us with product, so we made sure to detail what items were used, and how we unitlized such yummy products each look.
Now that we've worked so hard to compile all this incredibly useful and insightful information, we think we may put it all down in a book!! That will give us a way to showcase not only the talent of all of our amazing artists, but to show you all the way this comes together. These girls, with ridiculously beautiful, do not show up looking the way they do in the shots, and the process takes more than a few minutes, and sometimes, some serious trial and error. But this was our learning experience, and we are thrilled to be able to share it with you all...
So look forward to Fall! September means 100 Years of Hair in Modern Salon Magazine, the launch of the official 100 Years of Hair.com website, and (hopefully) a bound copy of all this information available for your very own collection!!!
Stay tuned!!!
