Last spring I created a collection for an Avante-Garde photo entry competition called SOYA that Eufora International offers biannually.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had never done ANYTHING Avante-Garde before because I was intimidated. This surprises most people who know me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>BUT</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Think about it:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What would you do if you could do anything? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where would you start? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where would you go with it? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How would you get there? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The list of questions echoes another. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My boundless thoughts overwhelmed me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I had been so long at the will of the individual I am designing with and at the mercy of the fabric their hair is. I love it, but there are boundaries, rules, and laws. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Avante-Garde appears impervious to rules and laws. Avante-Garde can be untamed in expression. Avante-Garde is yet to be known...so with limited funds and resources I began to play. I had to expand beyond what I thought I knew <i>AND</i> let myself have it. I sketched crudely, collected images that inspired or expressed my point of view and formed a plan. I surrounded myself with people who helped materialize my desires. </div>

Nothing is ever done alone. I had an amazing photographer, Scottie Magro who was instrumental in the vision, an experienced make-up artist, Brieanne Monique, and four fantastic models who graciously gave their time and talent to actualize a vision I had vested so much into. And I cannot forget to acknowledge my husband who tolerated the hair mania our home harvested in the process.</div>

It's funny, when I completed the session I thought I was done but it was just as much of a process to choose three images as a collection. Now that I'm finished with the competitive piece of this photo shoot there is more to come...</div>

When I started this blog last March I wanted to add fun quick tutorials like this one, but I thought everything had to be perfect. This is from last summer and it is not perfect but it is fun and easy. Although it is true that it is much much easier to make an appointment with a talented professional I hope you have fun with this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What you will need to get started are:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Elastics</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hairpins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bobbypins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hair 3 inches or more past your shoulders</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a step by step and listed below is a video tutorial.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step One: Start with a side pony and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
secure it with the elastics.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(you may want to backcomb at the crown for more lift first)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Two: Split the pony in two, set one portion aside.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Note that splitting the pony equally will create similar texture, splitting it 1/3 and 2/3 will create uneven texture- neither are wrong you will simply get a different look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Three: Create a three stem braid and secure it with an elastic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Note that a tighter braid will achieve a knotted look and a looser braid gives you more play and a 'loopy' finish.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Four: Braid the second portion of the pony and secure it with an elastic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You should now have a pony tail with two secured braids.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Five: Take a bobby pin and slide it (preferably into </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the elastic) to the end of each braid and place it into the base of the ponytail.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Six: Place another bobby pin in the middle of the looped braid and secure it into the pony area. Do the same for the other looped braid.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Step Seven: This is where you personalize the finish. You may like it just as it is or perhaps you need to cover a pin or elastic. To do this spread out the braid and secure it with a pin. I like using 3 inch hair pins by placing them in the hair I am securing and weaving them into the base of the style.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

There are a lot of creative ways to apply it, just make sure you set it with hairspray like Euforas' Elevate if you want it to stay put.<br />

When the 2004 Tsunami hit India the amazing salon team I work with collaborated in our first Beauty for Benefit fundraiser. We collected every service dollar from a Sunday we are usually closed and donated it to the Red Cross. The next year hurricane Katrina hit and we gathered our fundraising efforts closer to home. Since 2007 The Studio For Hair has joined Eufora International to raise money for Childhelp (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #886c49; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px;"><a href="http://www.childhelp.org/">hthttp://www.childhelp.org//</a>)</span> I feel blessed to have a gift I can share for others in need and luckily I am not the only one who shares their talent. The print shown here is by an amazing artist who has donated his work to help us in our efforts. You can bid on it for a chance to win it for ten dollars an entry. The link will guide you through it. Thank you and good luck!</div>

I fill up the back of my nail with pomade, emulsify it onto the palms of my hands, then lightly pat the product onto the top of the head starting in the back then work my way forward and back again. Once I have even distribution I swirl whats left on my hands all over the hair. Now that the hair is evenly covered but not saturated I push the hair around in the preferred directions. </div>

I prefer an organized chaos look, meaning groomed-but not too perfect! In doing so I might detail by pushing the hair forward a bit using right and left hand forward strokes then pushing some hair up in the front for this length hair.</div>

There are kits sold at craft stores that make this an easy project.When we do these I follow the directions provided but when i mix the cement I line the bucket with a doubled plastic grocery bag so I can squeeze it from all sides until it has a brownie mix consistency, this makes clean up easier too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some tips from experience might be to make sure the imprint is deeply set, any decoration piece like marbles or tiles also have to be firmly pressed in or they will fall out later.do not use more water than in the directions and if you do you can set paper towels on top to absorb the excess, then make your design. Be sure to let it set for a week in a place it will not be disturbed and lightly setting a dishtowel over the top seems to help wick away water for a better set.</div>

There has been a lot of recollection in the salon recently over the loss of Vidal Sassoon, an industry legend. It is tricky to summarize such a monumental figure, especially since my first memory of him is from a shampoo commercial from the eighties: he was surrounded by a group of pretty girls with shiny swinging lochs stating "if you don't look good, we don't look good!" Never a more true statement has been claimed about a salon to me. He revolutionized the hair industry. His vision allowed women to simply wear their hair without harsh weekly teasing and he shared his talent with hairdressers across the world. Changing the face and customs of beauty for the better.</div>

Of course, I never met the man, but the first haircutting book I bought in my early twenties was <i>Cutting Hair The Vidal Sassoon Way</i>. It is the only book I didn't give up to our studio library, it's like a bible to me. Though some of the finished styles on the pages may be dated, all the principles still apply. </div>

One of my favorite interviews of him was about how he came into his apprenticeship. He implied that if not for his basic use of manners the opportunity may have been lost to him.

He was charming, talented, and innovative. I would love to have the 'Je ne sais quoi' that guided him to blaze a trail of inspiration that has brightened the world of hairdressing the way he has.

Last year I agonized over how to make raised beds in the garden until one day I was leaving a landscape supply company and saw these circles in various sizes standing upright in the rear view mirror as I was leaving. Come to find out they are galvanized steel fire rings and I think they make a fine raised bed.<br />

To dress them up I sprayed the outside different shades of blue. To give them a formal touch in the future I may stack stone around them to create a sort of bench. Eventually we will add a flagstone path between them and convert the ceramic planters into a water feature.</div>

We noticed that the new space needed overhead coverage. So when I found this gazebo at Costco I sought my husbands approval.

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"> The problem was they only had a floor model left and could not sell it to me. The manager assured me they would get more and told me to call back<i> every</i> day. Two days later I called and they had sold the floor model and the closest one in a box was an hour away. I explained calmly that I was upset to the gentlemen on the phone and that I was on a waiting list for it, he kindly apologized and shared with me that it was pending deletion in the system, but another store close by would sell me their floor model. I called the other store to be sure they would sell it and was told I had to do it in person. When I arrived a couple hours later I once again heard they could not sell me the floor model. This time I shared why I was I was angry...only to hear the closest one in a box was three hours away, but they would be getting more in.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I started with a K cup and after futile attempts could not get the foil and adhesive off the rim ( it really gives me pause to think about what coffee flavor that adds) , so I used decorative Duct Tape to edge the rim added a peat pellet, seed, instructions with 'how to', and stickers to design the 'pot', and placed them in favor boxes I found at a dollar store.<br /><br />Perhaps in the end I created more waste but it was a fun activity that hopefully will plant the seed for Reducing, Recycling, and Reusing in the future for my children and others.</td></tr>

Behind the chair I am fortunate enough that most of my clientele evolves into their next great color and style. So when it came time to find a model to go from now to wow I looked elsewhere. I posted on FB that I was looking for models who were willing to transform. I know how scary change can be and I was happy when Lana volunteered. My vision for this collection was to take a classic shape and give it a colorful edge Ala vintage glam. It was a lot of fun and it was greatly enhanced by Scottie Magros' photography skills. Thanks Lana!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So last year I entered SOYA, a photo entry competition where Eufora showcases three finalists in a few different hair categories. Everyday we have make-overs in the salon but often are too busy or lack the foresight to capture the image. It made sense to me to enter this category and use the salons annual creative night photo shoot for my three models. I was so focused on transforming my models that I overlooked the importance of wardrobe styling and thus the shoot was lacking. I woefully chose to redo this photo shoot, maintaing all three models new looks until the next opportunity. A couple months later my friend and fellow hairdresser Jim Wilson was kind enough to offer his photography skills. Further cementing my belief that what a person needs will always be there. I was convinced I had a shot at being a finalist and dare I say even win for the make-over category. It has been an unbelievable creative journey. I did not place. The winner of this category had a far superior vision, and the other two finalists were good. It knocked the wind out of me, but true to the' Eufora families' culture many kind, encouraging words of wisdom were shared at the global 2011 convention. I am still proud of the images shown here, but can't wait to show you what has been happening since...Jeannie Jachmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13733378109855223232noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216143737052190993.post-74235227659564794022012-03-04T07:29:00.000-08:002012-03-25T21:10:46.779-07:00The beginning of a beautiful friendshipSo last Summer I met an amazing photographer at an art fair with my husband. When we walked away from her booth I playfully said to my husband "she doesn't know it yet but we are going to be great friends". I'm so grateful that my words were prophetic!<br />

That summer she took the most beautiful pictures of our family in our own garden. We have gone on to collaborate in three wonderful fashion shoots intended for a competition that has since been cancelled but it has fed a taste for editorial hairdressing and I am still hungry...<br />
