Valley Forge bliss bridal show

Have you ever attended a Bridal Show? This was my first experience.  It gives brides the opportunity to source out different vendors for their wedding day. At this particular show there was an opportunity to win free services for your wedding day, a variety of different hor d'oeuvres and drinks, free stuff and of course our models.  At Salon NOVA's booth we show case our work that we've created in past weddings, and special occasion hair and make up. We also had a basket raffle with lots of goodies. At Salon NOVA we offer bride and bridal party services in the salon or we can travel to your venue of choice. When you come to the salon for your big day we provide muffins, mimosa, cold and hot beverages.  If your interesting in coming to see us for your wedding check out SalonNOVA.net for more info. My Bridal and special occasion work can be found on all of my social networking sites, salonnova.net, and my gallery. 

This bridal show gave me a fun photo shoot opportunity. One of my Co workers Keyana and my boyfriend Justin were available to be models. Staged as bride and groom, a great way to express our talent in men and women services. On Keyana's hair I was able to get a bit weird and interesting with her style. We call this "the modern day comb over" Her hair is chin length. I was able to put her hair up into a french twist. I added a very avant garde piece made of hair to the front to replicate a birdcage and added a pretty white flower to the back. Keyana's makeup was done using The Balm and Youngblood cosmetics. Justin's hair was very simple to style. I cut his hair a few days before. On the day of the event Heather blow dried his hair and applied Kevin Murphy Rough rider.  Enjoy the photos below.

creating "the modern  day comb over"

1. Choose the desired hair your like to use for this intersting texture. ( we used a clip in extesion)
2. wrap the hair in a figure eight pattern (rick rack set) on a large hair pin
3. place the finished wrap in to your flat iron and heat the hair up, allow to cool
4. remove hair from hair pin, brush out
5. spray  a strong hair spray, flaten the hair out with your flat iron with an open and close motion, do not slide the iron or you will smooth out the fun texture you just created.
6. then it will look like a sheet give it another good spray and mold it to where you want it on the head.
