Beauty Crush: BronzedBerry

Did you know that Up-Do's For I Do's offers on-site organic spray tans? It's that time of year where we are ready for the cute dresses and flip flops but our wintery skin isn't quite ready! Ask Lindsay with Glam & Tan for her specials and advice on how to be a safely bronzed beauty!

  

Inspriation: Realistic Expectations

I love this. I love it simply because it is true. So many people bring us images and photos of their inspiration pictures. Most of the time there is no way on EARTH that their hair is going to do that without professional help. The models and celebrities that you see in magazines are wearing extensions. Some have had their hair lifted via Photoshop. Or highlighted from a professional colorist and box color in your kitchen doesn't count as professional. It's incredible how much better your hair can look when lit with the perfect lights from talented photographers. The image you are looking at is a still. Remember you are going to be dancing, kissing, smashing cake and celebrating into the wee hours as a newlywed. One of the great talents that are our Up-Do's For I Do's artists offer is that we can go over all of these details with you at your trial consultation. Wake up on the day of your wedding knowing exactly what you will look like, understand the realistic expectations of what your hair will do and let a professional guide you. Happy Thursday!

Image has been in my "inspiration" file for sometime. I believe I found this on a friend's facebook that was from Pinterest.

Feature: Demo Video 2012

Did you know that we have our own You Tube channel? Every so often we film a new demo video to update our style, show off our new digs or to even feature some of our new artists. We were thrilled when John Rose Videography came to capture our fresh studio for our new video. Check out our channel here! Be sure to watch our 2012 video with the outtakes! Good thing we have the hair and makeup skills....we clearly fail at acting :)  Enjoy some of the behind the scene photos! Happy Friday!
