I've just returned from the Spring / Summer Trends Launch in Manchester, I just love the city so much, it has all the vibe of London but with lots of smiley friendly faces and a FREE bus around the centre…just brilliant!
Before heading to Manchester we had a model casting and colour prep at our London Academies in Covent Garden. We were lucky to have gorgeous models who were open to change…our model scouts do a fantastic job! We had a very busy day getting fully prepared, trying to leave as little as possible to do the next day as we would be arriving in Manchester at 12pm and the seminar started at 3pm.
Luckily all went smoothly… myself, Tracy Gallagher, Alison Dace, Lisa, our make up artist and the 6 models got the train without too many problems! No wasting time on the journey, all models had their fingers and toes painted en route.
On arriving in Manchester we met our new A team member, Lorraine from Saks Bury! Who was a fabulous help in prepping the models.
The seminar went really well, I worked on the asymmetric trend, with a soft romantic feel to the finish. I used a pin cutting technique which created a soft feathered feel with feminine tendrils at the base line. The finish was curly, wide, with a flat wave through the front area. I worked with the pastel colour trend on a natural red head, taking her richer in tone with placement of apricot mainly focused through the front.
Tracey worked with the metallic trend, using bronze tones, 07’s and golds, the colours were layered up alternating from root to tip which gave depth and a stacked appearance…faboulous! The overall look was the thatched trend with a DIY fringe giving an instant on trend look.
Alison worked with 2 of the colour trends neon and pastel. Alison used the new l’oreal mix tones which had beautiful results with strong vibrant colours.
All went really smoothly, with great feedback from both the audience and the models.
