Happy Holiday Weekend!   - Saturday, May 29, 2010
It's the Memorial Day weekend, and although the weather is looking less than fabulous, we hope that you get to spend the weekend doing exactly what you want! Here's the run-down on our plans:

Javaise is going to go camping with her boyfriend and his daughter. They'll be tenting it at Bar View Jetty in Tillamook. We'll cross our fingers for her that it won't be too rainy!

Renee is going to hike the Pittock Mansion trail with her boyfriend. She loves that trail because it's an easy jaunt, although designated a moderate hike. Again, crossing our fingers that it is at least dry!

Whitney is going to a BBQ and then she will be learning the fine art of brewing beer from her boyfriend. A summer ale is in the works and I can't wait to taste it (hint!).

Lisa is going to have a girl's night Happy Hour & Sex in the City night with some friends and then hitting up Farmer's Market Sunday for some fresh food...

Shawn is going to Cirque De Soleil at the Keller with her family and then either hanging at the pool (weather permitting) or heading to Out of This World Pizza with her whole herd of kiddos.

Again, from all of us at Ritual, have a great weekend!


Continuing Ed   - Monday, May 24, 2010

Lisa recently did a couple of really fun things to keep the creativity flowing. Here it is in her words:

Attending the Seattle hair show
I began my day with a makeup artistry class that went over product by Sorme Cosmetics but it wasn't just a traditional class just about product, but a class about application and technique depending on a client's face shape and desire makeup look. This will blend very nicely with the education and knowledge that I have received as a TIGI makeup artist.

I attended the Paul Mitchell class which I was super excited about because I had seen the guest artist (Ira Sage) about 6 years ago ad he was a great teacher full of awesome techniques. He also busted out a dance from Janet Jackson "Control" that I LOVED!

I got to peek in on Aquage's updo classes that were on stage. the artistry involved with their collections have always been amazing. The instructor, Chris, is actually from Portland. He's great and I attended a class from him last summer.

Normally at hair shows, you walk around and check out each manufacturer's new products and watch hair demos on stage. This year, I got to be a client with Creative Nail Design and their fabulous new product called Shellac. I got a full manicure followed up with a Shellac get nal polish that makes your manicure last for 14 days. It's a new technology that combines the color of polish with he adhesion of gel to give a long lasting manicure without the damage of filing on the nails like traditional gels or acrylic. It's also a product that can be used on nurses and doctors because it is not an enhancement, but a manicure.

To finish off my day, I attended a Joico Le Graphique Color and Cut collection that was hosted by Sue Pemberton. She is an outstanding artist and visionary for color. Sue Pemberton just got nominated for another NAHA award for Best Colorist of the Year. I got to see new spring/summer cuts that feature fun colors like teal, magenta and coppers to name a few. They were all made to be avant garde or natural enough that just a hint of color underneath could peek through.

Next, I attended a TIGI Rock-a-holic Cutting Class by Mitchel Wilson...

I got to rock out on a tour bus that has been used by many famous musicians in the past and now TIGI has transformed this tour bus into a salon that is traveling around the country teaching new fun hair cutting techniques. Mitchel was an AWESOME teacher that went over two great haircuts and new techniques that I have never seen before. I also learned a lot about TIGI's new Rockaholic line of hair products. I got m picture taken in front of the tour bus holding the same guitar that Joan Jett uses and soon I will have my picture featured on the cover of "SPIN" magazine. Ok, so it's a fake magazine cover that makes me look like a rock star. I also got to hear about Mitchel living and teaching for TIGI Australia for the last four years.
