IBS New York - April 25 - 27 2009

What an awesome month of April we had for Hair events. In early April, we had been invited to the Wella Studio in Rockefeller Center for a day of education. What a place this is! The facility is for training and further education only, but stop by and take a look next time your in Midtown, or when you go to see the Christmas Tree. It's the best of the best for international training.

Next up was the International Beauty Show at the Jacob Javits Center. We had a great time checking out hair and hanging out with each other outside the bustle of the salon. Big heavy bangs and fringe are HOT right now... keep the rest of your hair loose, and get that front moving for you. Frizz-control is also a HUGE priority right now.. Call us soon to make that Keratin appointment.....Also, check out some photos from the show and become our fan on our new Facebook Fanpage.

We have back in stock the "Advanced Keratin Treatment". This is perfect for anyone who has trouble waiting the required few days before washing their hair after the service. It takes the same amount of time to perform as other Keratin treatments, but we shampoo your hair after wards and style it for you also. The service will last 8-10 weeks, and can be performed as often as needed.

Congratulations to our very own Rachel upon her graduation from Cosmetology School..She's well on her way to an incredible future....

We have just gotten in a new shipment of MoroccanOil bottles. This product is by far the hottest in the industry at the moment, and very hard to get.....

We are proud to announce the launch of our iPod/iPhone mobile website. Now from your handheld phone, you can call us with one touch dial, e-mail us questions and appt requests, find us via GPS, and read all our information from our website in a mobile format!! It's very cool... From your iPod/iPhone, go to safari and bring up www.richardsalon.com... click the "+" symbol on the bottom of the browser then "Add to Home Screen". This will drop a cool "Richard Salon" logo on your desktop for quick access in the future.....

Also, you can now follow us on twitter...

Mark you calendar for the 21st annual Smithtown Day Festival... Sunday, June 7th 2009. We will be outside the salon all day from 10 am to 5 pm. Bring the kids, visit us, introduce yourselves to us, and ask us anything you need to know about your hair. Main Street will be closed to traffic, so you can enjoy Smithtown for the day....

Will post back after that!! Thanks, and watch the frizz...
