New York...or BUST!

If you haven't heard...

The Secrets team ROCKED New York last weekend.

Buffalo, NY was the destination for our fun-filled, ultra-educational Paul Mitchell Co. Hair Show, featuring numerous, talented artists from their team.

Scott Cole, the guest artist for the show had great stage presence and show amazing talent, not to mention years of salon and platform experience to share.

This particular show touched on everything- from long/short, brown/blonde, fine/thick, highlights/chunks, hold the scissors this way, hold the scissors that way, cut with precision, cut like a crazy person....you get the idea.

Cole has worked in this industry for...well, as long as I have. As he began to show us various techniques I found that I was increasingly pleased, as I thought to myself, "This is us...this is what we do."

He reiterated many day-to-day ideas that we maintain in our salon, and techniques that we use and teach our apprentices every day.

Our team loves "custom cutting and coloring," meaning, there is not a "formula" or "haircut" that we are attempting to duplicate-- it's pure artistry.

Every single person that walks through our doors has their very own custom formula and/or cut. Now, don't misunderstand this-there is obviously a bob, shag, inverted bob (Boy, do we all know what that is!), and the long-layered look, but these concepts are the basis of some cuts--the ultimate result is exactly what we've designed for you-- our client.

Needless to say, We enjoyed watching Cole and his team show us various colors and styles that were specifically-designed for each and every model on stage.

As it concluded, the models cascaded down the center of the room. Each style created a personalized look--they had great confidence in themselves and what Cole and his team had done.

As we gathered in the back for a picture with Cole, I stood back for a minute and realized Scott Cole and I had a lot in common! ...We make people feel great and we have the perfect teams to do so!

Our weekend: Fantastic.

The education: Phenomenal.

Quality Time with the Secrets team: Absolutely Priceless.
