expensive haircuts here we come!

Emil and I were planning to attend a press screening of “Jet Li’s Fearless” at the Chinese Mann in Hollywood on Wednesday night (9/20), but we were still stuck in traffic 15 minutes into the movie. Since we missed the movie and was in the area, we decided to stop by the grand opening party of Laurence Michaels Salon.

We didn’t stay long because everyone was packed into the salon like sardines and I don’t really enjoy strangers, especially smelly old men, touching me, even if it is only accidentally and briefly.

In the midst of blaring music and various Hypnotiq concoctions, customers who booked appointments prior to the evening’s events were getting haircuts and hair treatments at 50% off by the salon’s staff. There was also an artist, Food One, outside painting on pieces of plywood.

In the gift bag:
- Kerastase hair products (3)
- Bumble & Bumble hair powder spray
- mini bottle of Hypnotiq, matches and mints
- Five Four hat, beanie, dog tags and tote bag
- LF coffee travel cup
- 20% off coupon for Antik Denim
- A bunch of one-time use samples
- $50 gift card for Laurence Michaels Salon

Laurence Michaels has numerous other services including: hair removal, eyelash application, chemical treatments, corrective skincare and hair maintenance, enhancement, and coloring.

Once Emil’s hair grows out, we’re going to head over to the salon to get haircuts. Men’s haircuts start at $55, so Emil is excited to get his first expensive haircut.

i haven't tried it yet though. it's kind of odd to have powder for your hair. and it might stain my clothes...

Yeah, watch out for that. It's really cool, though, like if your roots/highlights are growing out, it fills in the space and absorbs oil in the hair.
