My first stop was a makeover with makeup artist Burke Daniel, I arrived at the event right after getting off work so I still had a little makeup on. Embarrassed, I apologized.
"I'm sorry I just came from work and I'm a mess."
Burke smiled and simply said:
"I love your blue eyeliner"
I laughed, with his perfect blonde hair and warm smile I couldn't help but be in a good mood. Well, I'm sure the strong cocktail in my hand helped too. Burke gave me a bright summer look, fierce purple eyes, simple cheeks and pink lips, all while the DJ behind me spun dance music. Now that my face was ready for a night out, it was on to my hair.
Next stop was a wash and blow dry with The Doves Studio owner Sonya Dove. Sonya is amazing, she made my hair shiny, smooth, bouncy, with a hint of curl. While in her chair she offered me not only the wonderful blow dry but tips and ideas of what I should be doing with my hair. I stepped out of that bright orange chair agreeing to anything Sonja suggested.
Ultimately Sonya suggested I get the Brazilian Straightening, which I did end up getting a few days later. Look for a post on that experience to come soon.

What an awesome event. Love the layout of the salon, it's very LA chic. How did you like the blow out?
I loved it! It's been a long time since I was overly impressed when getting my hair done. I wash, blow dry, flat iron, curl my own hair on a daily basis so I tend to think "yeah I could do this at home". But, I have to admit I was impressed with the skill and knowledge that the stylist had. Like I said I was ready to do anything she suggested.
