Spring Education 2017
I've been very busy staying educated by taking classes from stylists I really admire! My first class this time around was from Miss Rockabilly Ruby. Most people probably know her from her youtube channel and Instagram. She does gorgeous vintage styling, especially with her Bridal looks. I've been following her for a while now, so I was thrilled to take a class from her! I even got a little certificate saying that I did so! You can follow Miss Rockabilly Ruby and see her work

Dita Von Teese Hair Roll Tutorial
The fabulously glamorous, Dita Von Teese, has included her own tutorial for her version of this look in her book, Your Beauty Mark. However, my hair is personally too short to do this look the way that she instructed. I also have my Bettie Bangs to complicate things. So I took what I know from her version, and through other tutorials to create my own way of doing things. Dita Von Teese sporting this fabulous style. The models for her lingerie line also wearing a variation of

Our Vegas Wedding
I met my husband in Vegas four years ago, so we decided to have our wedding celebration there. We had such a great time and were able to keep it formal and casual all at the same time. It was so much fun walking around the casino during Viva Las Vegas in our wedding attire and getting the nicest blessings from complete strangers. It was a small gathering of just about 20 people or so. Here we are in the exact spot of the bar (I know) of our meeting! We just had to get a photo

Spring Education 2016
I've been very lucky to take so many amazing classes this spring! I started my education tour (or at least that's what it feels like) in Houston taking Updo Upgrades at the Aveda Institute this February. There I was able to practice a lot of modern, textured, flowing updos and learn some new techniques! Then at the end of March, I made my way down to San Antonio to learn from the lovely Cherry Dollface at Broadway Pin Ups. She is truly a doll! She is known mostly for her Yout

Easy Vintage "Pageboy" Style
Creating this easy pageboy style in a quick pinch by curling the ends under with a curling iron and pinning while it cools down. The spray, spray, spray! The 50s pageboy style usually was where the bottom was curled under in a smooth, continuous roll. These images below show my inspiration! #brianna #pageboy #50shair #vintagehair #howto #tutorial

Creative Photo Shoot at Garbo A Salon
We had a creative shoot at Garbo A Salon where each stylist got to have 100% creative freedom on their own model! It was so nice to get to do this look. I drew inspiration from the smoldering film noir siren looks, carried by the likes of Josephine Baker, Marlene Dietrich and modern gal, Dita Von Teese. The fingerwaves were set with clips (as seen in the before photo below) while wet and were not brushed out for that sleek slicked back appearance. The makeup includes a screen

Pin curl set Before and after!
For Garbo A Salon's 30th Anniversary party, I went as Rita Hayworth. This required some legit vintage hair! For the most authentic approach, it is best to set the hair while wet either in rollers, waves or my favorite, pin curls. I slept with the pin curls in over night to give them plenty of time to dry, but another alternative would be to sit under a hooded dryer. Then I took out the pins and brushed the curls out very strategically. I tucked my bangs back behind the "swoop
