JOHN FRIEDA SALON TOUR










Today, I had the privilege of attending the John Frieda Salon Tour at The Shops at Park Lane in Dallas. It was totally convenient since I intern right there at Park Lane. After work, I walked right over to the trailer-turned-salon with one of my co-workers who wanted to join me. A hair consultation was waiting for me! My stylist, Daniel, was such an awesome guy and so passionate about what he does. He told me that he has been doing hair for about thirteen years now. I was excited to see what he could do!

After I explained to him that I do absolutely nothing to my hair, he decided to just accentuate my "beachy" waves by using some of the wonderful John Frieda products and a curling iron. He sprayed sections with hairspray then curled it, but kept the ends straight by twirling the curling iron a specific way. After that, he used dry shampoo on my hair then teased it just a little.. and voila! So simple and easy.

It wasn't a huge difference in styling for my hair, but of course I liked it. He called it sort of like a "Barneys" look that was not super glamorous and kind of dirty at the ends. I told him it was perfect because I am totally not glamorous! Haha.

At the end of your consultation, you have the option to get all the information about the style emailed to you. That way you are able to remember the process and products it took to make your hair look fabulous. How awesome is that?

I was given a bunch of products that I will soon be giving away to one of you, so keep following! The John Frieda team gave me some of the dry shampoo, which I am super pumped for. I will definitely review it for you all, along with some of the other products.

Make sure to find a JF Tour near you. Their next stops include Pheonix, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Minneapolis. Follow their facebook page here for more information!

DFWBN & THE BODY SHOP










I just recently joined the Dallas Fort Worth Blogger Network, and they held a great event I was able to attend! The Body Shop at Northpark mall hosted a beauty filled morning for all of us bloggers in the Dallas area. We were pampered with a foot bath, hand lotion demonstration, and even make-up consultations. The store manager, Brian Warren, was so kind to have the store open early for us. He treated us with free gift bags filled with coupons and samples. Oh, and did I mention he had Chick-fila-A cater it? It was delicious, and we even got coupons for some free food! Can you tell I was excited? Haha. We also got to learn of the Body Shop's recent campaign to stop sex trafficking of children and young people. We all had the opportunity to sign a petition and even got a free t-shirt to support the cause. Find out more info here.

Don't forget to check out the Body Shop's website to shop their awesome products!
