A Day at BIBI Salon in Harlem, NY


Many of you know I was busy working Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and New York Fashion Week. But what many of you guys may not know that I was also a special guest makeup artist at BIBI Salon in Harlem.

BIBI Salon is a new, modern gem in Harlem owned by Celebrity Hair Stylist Maisha Teacher. Maisha is a 18 year internationally veteran who specializes in healthy hair. Her favorite and only hair product line she will carry is; PHYTO. I love that Maisha has taken a chance to bring her love and passion of hair to Harlem. Now, ladies don't have to travel so far into the city to receive a great cut, color, style and even a manicure or pedicure....she's carrying PRITI NYC.

Maisha says she will continue to freelance but plan to bring her top clients to her new salon. While getting pamper it was good to see many FAB behind the scene faces in the industry stop by to get their tresses done. One of the video director from Essence Magazine was getting her washed, cut, and styled in a very cute short bob. One of the ladies from the NBA was getting her hair color just in time for fall. Even the FAB Jai Jai from the Nectar Bar stopped by to say hi.

With all of the new renovation ladies never have to leave out of Harlem...when you walk out of BIBI Salon you're now ready for Harlem Fashion Row....I'll see you in November so book your makeup services now.

Fashion Night Out 2010-New York


The GLAMXURIOUS night is finally here. For me it's the kick off party to Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. After getting off from working a L'OREAL Paris assignment in Times Square I headed over to the Time Inc. building to meet up with one of my BESTIE'S. I hung out at her office for a little while but I knew I needed to get ready for the big night. She gave me the key to her gorgeous apartment in The Village and I took a cab to her place. Once I got settled in I walked down to the market to buy a bottle of wine and snacks. While the wine chilled I freshened up so when she arrived home I would be ready to do her makeup.

After I did her makeup she headed out I finished up my makeup and got dressed. I pulled out my FAB long black Valentino skirt, my long-sleeve gray Fashion Night Out t-shirt, my black Christian Louboutin sandals, my glam necklace from Miss Sassy and my favorite crystal chandelier earrings.

Had a great time, two invites that I couldn't miss was:

Internet Mogul and Beauty Icon Loren Ridinger at Touch Lounge, at 5:00 pm.
Designer Tracy Reese at 641 Hudson Street 6:00pm-11:00pm.

I basically stayed in the, The Village, Meat Package District, area until I met up with the girls in SOHO... thanks to STARBUCK for their party bus. So many highlights this evening. "glam life of a makeup artist"
