Look of the Day: Miranda Kerr & Frankie the Yorkie

2 Jul

It is a showdown of cuteness: Who is more adorable, Miranda Kerr or her little Yorkshire terrier, Frankie? While the Victoria’s Secret model gets points for her flawless ensemble, her pup was looking particularly dapper with a freshly groomed ‘do.

The brilliance behind Miranda’s sidewalk style lies in its simplicity. She wore this sheer star-print Equipment blouse with what appears to be nothing under it and accessorized with her go-to Celine tote and Prada shades.

If she’s learned anything from her days at the lingerie mega-brand, it’s the art of messy bed hair—heaven forbid it look like she tried to be this sexy.

Story of a Bride to be in need of hair color

Name: Jenny Holland
What you love to do:
I love going to the beach, traveling, spending time with my fiancé, family, friends and animals and God. I work as a realtor, and enjoy singing, dancing, laughing, reading and helping struggling women find their path.  I love to live every day to the fullest, with a positive heart, mind and soul.
If you could have anyone’s hairstyle for a day, who would you choose?
Minka Kelly.
How do you feel about your hair right now?
Excited!
What is your favorite era?
I would love to spend a day in the 20’s.
What is your best or worst hair memory?
Worst: dying my own hair by using a box color.
Why do you love getting your hair done?
It makes me feel more beautiful, and when my hair is more beautiful, I am happy.
I had consultations from five different colorists in Beverly Hills, Laguna, and Newport Beach and decided to choose Meleesa because she made me feel confident.  She had the knowledge and asked for a commitment from me to be patient and have no expectations the first time.  So, we shall see- I’m in the chair now.
Thank you God for Meleesa and her team…bless her hands and products as she works on me, to create a beautiful masterpiece, Amen!


Meleesa’s version of meeting with Jenny
Jenny came to see me after finding us online and checking out our tutorials.  She was super nervous after driving to top notch salons in Beverly Hills and having stylists tell her that what she wanted was impossible.  She felt hopeless and especially concerned as she is getting married on March 10, 2012.
What Jenny wanted was possibility.  After assessing her hair, I really took into consideration her hair color and the image she brought with her.  The top priority was to begin with the color process.  This process consisted of balyage, or hand painted highlights in order to enhance the color dimension.  Being by the beach, I love to create the sun-kissed look.  I also used Inoa color which I love because of the intense shine it leaves on the hair, giving hair deep dimension and creating that pop!
After all the mache papers had been applied, Jenny looked like she had wings!  My assistant Bree then shampooed Jenny with Absolute Repair and gave her a power dose treatment to condition and repair at the same time.  Finally, a crème beige gloss was applied, making her color look just so yummy!
Before I let Jenny see her new hair (the suspense was killing her!),  I added some bangs so she could wear them side swept or part them in the middle.  I completed the process with a fabulous blow dry typical of Meleesa the Salon.
Jenny was thrilled with her new look – she was glowing and even more gorgeous due to her being so in love.  She loved her first visit to our downtown Huntington beach hair salon – a space for creation, love and constant reminder that life is just grand!
