Photo Shoot 2011

HAUTE, HOT, HOT!

This is Britt, another one of our lovely models who participated in our in-house photo shoot, recently. As you can see from the "before" image, her hair is quite long and the color was very uneven with major new growth at the roots. Even though the ombre look is very trendy, with colored ends and mid-shaft that devolve back to the root area, that is a very deliberate and articulated look. Britt's look was the result of waiting too long between highlighting appointments. We simply evened out the color and substituted some of the darker sections with a fantastic icy blond look. In the first look, notice the long barrel curls and how the color is consistent from root to ends. In both looks, the long bangs help make a great statement. In the first look with all the hair down, it helps frame a great face and in the second look, the bangs help to draw attention away from her long forehead. Along with the long bangs in the second look, the hair gathered on the side, in the back, tells a great story of simple sophistication.

On Sunday, March 20, several of our Mouton's team members volunteered their off time, to practice their skills. We focused on how to execute photo shoots and get great images everytime. As you know Mouton's Salon is constantly published in all of the hair -focused magazines and we want to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to learn the techniques that go into having a successful shoot. Michelle, who has participated in many location shoots for Mouton's was there on Sunday, as was Jennifer, who even though she has been with Mouton's for 11 years, had never joined us at a shoot. Also, joining us were Kimberly, An, Jada and Jenny. Souky came as well and was a model for An. Sherri came to help where needed and wound up not only doing makeup and assisting the photographer, but wound up doing a "look" as well. Everyone got at least 3 different looks from their models, which is an important part of doing photo shoots - being able to be flexible and achieve different looks with the same model and same haircut and color! We are posting just one look from each team member here on the blog, but will be posting more images on our FaceBook page.

Well done, ladies!
