Haedon did an INCREDIBLE job with our booth. If I could get in, I would take pictures for you all. But I'm so not gonna fight that crowd again just yet. So, if you happen to make it in, we're there, and we have the most gorgeous booth! We're number 3, to the left when you enter the main Site 1 entrance.
We've got a few things there, 3 new styles, one of which is for Locks of Love and will only be available at the Hair Fair.
I just want to say that while I understand they wanted new releases for the Hair Fair, and I think that's great, I think we should be able to offer them in our stores too after the first few days. At least to group members only. I don't know, I just somehow feel like we're cheating you guys out of good stuff. Even though they'll go out in the shop as soon as Hair Fair is over. It's probably just me, but I have a special affection for our group, and dang it, y'all deserve extra special treatment.
Anyway, here're the Hair Fair styles which will be available at Calla as soon as the Hair Fair ends.
Fennel - This one is my contribution, and you can probably guess that by all the curls. Anyway, this one was pretty challenging, and those blasted little flowers took forever. There are two (yes! TWO!) optional flower attachments that come with this style. One has the flowers just in the back, and the other has flowers across the front hairline as well. Because, sometimes you just want more flowers. Sometimes you don't. And sometimes, you want none! Oh, and the flowers are scripted color change, except for the centers. Which are diamonds. I was feeling a little fancy.
White Violet - This one is Haedon's Hair Fair style, and absolutely one of my top ever favorites. (I know, I say that all the time, but I really mean it!) It's one of those carefree styles which looks great in PJs, or jeans, or a business suit. It's a supremely versatile style! The color bands and the little clippys (how cute are those!) are scripted color change. You know how we love the color change.
Marshmallow - This one was sort of a joint effort. We both had the same idea, and Haedon was just much better at executing it than I was. I tried. You should see it. Well, maybe you shouldn't. The meaning of Marshmallow is beneficence, which seemed fitting for this style. It will not be available anywhere other than at Hair Fair, and 100% of the proceeds from this style are going to the Locks of Love charity. So please, if you can get into the Hair Fair, grab this one for a good cause.
We just couldn't leave you guys out, we had to release stuff at the shop. Because we love you. We've got 4 more new styles, and we're putting out the Springs LTD Edition Packs in those, plus the two styles we did for Hair Fair. These colors are only available for a limited time, so please get them if you want them.
Fir - Hae calls this my hippie hair. I love it anyway. It's flexi and has that cute scarf (which is scripted color change) that actually is knotted. The knot is kind of hidden in the hair, but trust me, it's there. Make a copy and take the wig all apart if you want to see.
Mignonette - Haedon rawks the piggies, every time. These are just soooo cute! They're a lot of fun, and they have scripted color change bands! (Surprise!) We had a lot of fun making this ad. It was a departure from the norm, and it turned out super cute.
Pansy - This is a big fluffy pony! I wanted to make something similar to Red Poppy but longer, a little messier, and a little...bigger. I'm really happy with this one. I tend to do more sleek, smooth styles, but I had a super fun time making this one. You might be seeing more big hair!
Purple Lilac - Have I mentioned that Hae rawks the piggies? These are french braided piggies, with long flexi tails. Pigtails are hard to do (I think) because you've got to get that part just right. French braids are hard because you've got to get them overlapping so they look like a braid. I'm super proud of her for this one. I don't think I'd have even attempted it yet. Oh, yeah! Those hair bands...color change! (Like you didn't know.)
Here's the current batch of Spring styles. Remember, these are only out for a little while. (Like till we have to take them down to put out new stuff. So I can't really give you an exact length of time. Maybe a week? Maybe more?) So get them while you can.
So, that's it for today. Lots of hoopla over the Hair Fair. If you can, get in there and check it out. There are lots of great displays and styles from so many designers. And if you see any "Hairy Participants" there, thank them for their hard work. We've all spent a great amount of time over the last few weeks getting ready, and doing all the little extras to make things special, and of course a lot of time and efforts have been donated towards Locks of Love. If nothing else, grab the Locks of Love styles and support this wonderful organization.
