AQUAGE DEALS OF THE CENTURY
Well, the holidays are over. Time to get back to it. chop. chop.I did a great deal with AQUAGE product line again first thing this year and boy have i got a special deal for the first dozen or so of you that take advantage of it……not only did i get 9 cases of the COLOR PROTECTING SHAMPOO LITRE SIZE AND THE PINT OF HEALING CONDITIONER BUT AQUAGE threw in a couple of cases of EQUALIZING DETANGLER LITRES at a substantial discount. so here’s the deal…..
BUY THE SHAMPOO/ CONDITIONER DUOS @ $28 AND get the LITRE OF EQUALIZING DETANGLER FOR $5!!!!!!!! NOW EVERYONE CAN HAVE THE LOOK OF EXPENSIVE HAIR!
AQUAGE TRAVEL SIZES ARE IN!
Don’t know how long they will be with us but i scored a bunch of travel sizes of Aquage.Once they are gone, well who knows, but i bought up all they had at the distributors. They are great for gym bags as well as suit cases………
the holidays are sneaking up on us…. i will be closed the friday after thanksgiving and the week between christmas and new years eve.PLEASE book in advance especially those of you who need evening appointments.i have been getting so many phone calls from new clients who are after those evening appointments…..
great news, luxe salon is now listed on the raquel welch/ gabor [ and jessica simpson]website as an official retail outlet in the mount vernon,bellingham skagit valley area.pretty cool, to think it started less than a year ago with a few wigs…….
AQUAGE has come out with a new line of color safe shampoos and conditioners, a few of you are testing them for me and the feedback for some of the products has been great, i’ll only carry the super performers. i still have the litre size aquage color protecting shampoos and conditioners at the sale price. i ordered enough of them so there is no excuse not to use the best stuff out there.
here’s a photo from my summer vacation on lake chautauqua…
what a great wig for those of you who want a little more sass.spellbound from gabor and hairuwear has that whole “shag” thing going on.it’s an updated version of that classic look that got women from under the dryer and back in control of their look.spellbound works very well for a rounder face shape that need a little elongating. it can be worn forward, framing the face or tucked behind the ears. 
“Resolve” is a hot little number I’ve started to carry since many of you have requested a smaller head size that can be w
orn by women of a certain age.This wig does not sacrifice style or believability.It comes in many of the graduated/ highlighted shades from the Gabor color ring
My favorite color for this style is “Platnum Ice”. It is the perfect shade for those of you who want to venture away from grey but want something a little more sophisticated than just another shade of blonde.
Many of ther colors are so very close to the Raquel Welch wig line’s colors.”Reslove” has a very comfortable capless cap that memorizes the shape of your head after an hour or so of wearing.The style is locked in like all the products from the Raquel Welch and Jessica Simpson lines as well.These can be special ordered in special cap sizes and colors. It takes about a week to ten days.Resolve to be a head turner!
i scored BIG for you, my esteemed clients.i did a deal with AQUAGE. by purchasing 8 cases of the color protecting shampoo liters and the healing conditioner pints, i was able to get the last year low, low price of $28 for both!those of you who have tried it know how great it is . the price is so low that everyone will become believers…..these products DO make a difference in the way your hair feels and behaves.
most of you have noticed that new wig styles keep pouring in. because of demand, in addition to the RAQUEL WELCH WIG line i am carrying more of the GABOR WIG line as well.the GABOR wigs are a little more traditional/ classic in style with great color blending and comfortable cap construction.GABOR has some beautiful grey blends that bridge the gap between grey and cool blonde.
my first [in a long time] solo session with the american cancer society’s “LOOK GOOD FEEL BETTER” seminar went well at the SKAGIT HOSPITAL a few weeks ago . we had a great turn out and some many of the participants got to help each other out by sharing their experiences.what a great feeling was in that room.

the posters and brochures are in for the camano art association’s mother’s day studio tour friday saturday and sun[mother's] day.the cover images this year for the posters and brochures are originals of mine. i am so psyched. copies of the image will be sold at my studio during the extended weekend along with some new images and a few old favorites…. the salon will be closed the thursday , friday and saturday before mother’s day.
the new raquel welch style “voltage” is on back order.they blew out the salon door as quicly as they arrived.they will be available again in late june.i will order a lot more this go round.the new gabor wig styles are out now, too. if the special orders of the gabor line continue to grow, i may start to carry that line as well. they have a lot more petite head size options.
the aquage hairspray deals are in and will be available all this month. i am still waiting to hear from my vendors about more of the litre shampoo/ conditioner duos.i’ve committed to eight cases to keep them available year round…..

just got in another raquel welch style from the spring 2007 collection. VOLTAGE is a great choppy little bob good for most face shapes and can be custom cut and highlighted to fit your needs or whims.
