FEATURING.... KATIES GROOMALS

I mentioned a couple of posts back about our amazing bride Katie who I just adore and love. She's such a trooper for sticking it out through the rain! Heres the beautiful pictures captured by Sweet Memory Garden. Loved them so much, I had to feature them!! Enjoy...

Whahooooooo!

Last night ENIZIO had the opportunity to be recognized by Salt Lake City Magazine as their pick for Best Makeup Artist 2009. I cried. Its a big deal for us because makeup is the reason Carol got into hair to begin with so to be recognized for that after all these years is so incredibly awesome! Thank you so much for the nomination and the votes! This truly means the world to us !!!!! OK more like the galaxy ;D

Who doesn't love balloons?

We recently took our kids to see the movie UP. My son Aden (who is 18 months) LOVES balloons so you can imagine the excitement when the balloons apeared on the screen. He started freaking out screaming babloon, babloon!!

Well who would of thought that balloons would make such great props for all things wedding photography? You can't help but admit that in the end, balloons=happy! Check out this round of photos of beautifully depicted balloon props for wedding and engagement photography.

KATIE

Katie has been my most fun bride up to date. Because her mother was not able to make it into town for her bridal session, Katie hired us to come on-site for her photo shoot. This girl has her wedding down to the last detail, and when she explained all the amazing ideas she had for her bridal photo session I was so excited to be able to be a part of it. Well as our luck would have it, the weather chose not to cooperate and as we were getting ready to push her canoe out into the lake to start her pictures it started pouring on us. We were soaked! Of course we had to get creative and at the bottom of her section here you can see that she was able to capture beautiful images. Shot by Sweet Memory Garden, Katie's session was unforgettable and so much fun!

Oh and her beautiful flower head piece and bouquet... The one and only Audrey from Studio Stems.

Kelly's Product Spotlight

NUTRIDEFENSE SPRAY

One of the products we love here at Studio Enizio is the Nutridefense Spray. Its a great "DO IT ALL" product. It detangles, adds shine, makes the hair soft, has anti dryness protection and counters the effects of harsh external aggressions. It's also great for curly hair as  a second day restyler! We recommend this to most everyone! Just shake and spray in damp hair before your other products then style as usual!

STEPHANIES MUST HAVE SUMMER PRODUCT LIST

Just like our skin gets sunburned and damaged from the sun our hair also takes a beating as well. The Kerastase Soleil line offers a personalized regiment for hair that is exposed to the aggressions of sun, wind and chlorinated or salt water. These harsh elements produce free radicals which attack the hair fiber leaving it dry, dull and weakened. 

Here are some of my must have products for the summer months

Bain Apres-Soleil (your shampoo)

*Nurtures and helps repair the hair fiber

* Easy detangling and softness

* Light, balancing cleanser

Creme Richesse (your conditioner)

* Intense nourishment

*Leaves the hair incredibly silky

*Restores softness and smoothness

Creme UV Defense Active (Your styling creme for all day protection)

*Double UV protection

*Treatment effect resists exposure to chlorinated water and salt water

*Smoothes and encloses the fiber 

*Provides shield like protection against environmental aggressions

*Helps preserve color's radiance

PUMP UP THE VOLUME JOCELYN STYLE

If you feel like your hair is falling flat immediately after your blowdry, or feel like you simply cannot achieve the volume you would like, here are some tips to help you pump up the volume in your style:

Apply Kerastase Volumactive Mousse, or Mousse Nutri-Sculpt to towel-dried hair (about a golf ball size). Work it in at the roots with your fingertips until dissolved.

Next, lift the hair up, one inch section-by-section, and apply Volumactive spray starting at the root, from about six inches away. Finger-comb through the ends.

Begin your blow dry at the roots. You may either hold the hair up with your fingers or a small vent brush, or bend upside-down, but focus the airflow on the roots.

*if the roots are not dry before the ends, or before the style is completed,

they will automatically fall, no matter how many volumizing products are in

your hair.

Only begin to round brush once the roots are 100% dry. Direct the hair straight up with the round brush for more fullness.

*for extra hold, press the cold-shot button on your dryer and run the brush

through a final time.

Finish with the new Double Force Controle Ultime hairspray for an all-day hold.

SKIN CARE 101

The first step to exceptional makeup is exceptional skin.  Just like hair, in order for skin to look and feel healthy it needs proper nourishment.  Here is a simple breakdown of ingredients to look for in your skincare:

 

Antioxidant:  fights free-radicals  (i.e. pollution, environmental damage, uv rays)

 

Vitamin A:  helps fight aging.  Typically applied at night because it makes your skin sensitive to sunlight.

 

Vitamin C:   antioxidant.  Boosts natural collagen production to prevent wrinkles and plump skin.   Great for acne-prone skin.

 

Vitamin E:  heals and moisturizes.  Can be applied to new scar tissue to help minimize scarring.

CAROL & I had the opportunity to spend an evening with Geno Stampora who will be inducted into the NAHA Hall of Leaders this summer. As one of the most influential Hairdressers in the Industry, Geno deserves the award 100 times over. I have never left an educational session more ready to take on my career than that with Geno. A hilariously motivating class, Carol and I were reminded of the importance of our jobs, our positions and the influence we can really have. There is such a stereotype about hairdressers and makeup artists but as in all things, its what you make and think of it. I am so proud to do what I do. Its very rewarding to help people feel good about themselves as well as realizing that it takes true talent to do what we do.
Thanks Larry for the opportunity to meet Geno and pick at his brain for one night!

Curly Hair Tips and Tricks for both Artists and Clients

Do you find curly hair more difficult to style? Do you find that no matter how much product you use, the hair still looks frizzy? Do you have trouble finding a product that leaves the hair soft and shiny but also has hold? Here is a set of steps I have found to be very helpful when styling clients with curly hair.

1. Make sure you use a cream curl product. Gels and mousses tend to harden and flake leaving the hair looking filmy and full of product. Curly hair today is soft and moveable.
2. Don’t be afraid to use a lot of curl crème when the hair is towel dried. If you can use more, use more. Curly hair is naturally more dry so it shouldn’t make the hair feel or look unclean.
3. While the hair is still damp, part and place the hair in the style you would like before you start diffusing then don’t touch the hair again until it’s dry. If you do need to touch it, make sure there is product on your fingers so you don’t separate hairs and create frizz.
4. The keys to diffusing are LOW heat and LOW airflow. High heat and airflow are two main causes of frizz.
5. DO NOT turn your client upside down to diffuse. Just put the diffuser right up against the head and work on one section at a time. This will require a little bit of patience, but the end result makes it worth it!
6. When the hair is dry, use a light creamy finishing product on your fingertips and gently set your fingertips on the scalp. Making sure not to disturb your finished style, rub your fingertips in tiny circles on the head, one section of the head at a time, to separate any hair that is stuck to the scalp so the hair is more moveable. Remember to pull your hands straight out from the head before moving to your next section. Also use this product in your hands to gently squeeze the hair together in any spots where you do find frizz.
7. Finally, use a very small amount of light hold aerosol hairspray over your finished style, and voila! Perfection!

To achieve this look, here are the products I would strongly recommend:

Bain Oleo-Curl Shampoo
Oleo-Curl Masque
Oleo-Curl Crème- Curl Definition Crème
Lumiere Nutri-Sculpt- Illuminating Finishing Crème
Double Force- Multi-Protective Spray.

All products are in the hydrating Nutritive line by Kerastase
