What’s Happening: Hair and Fashion Show by Shine Salon

When it comes to style, there are many areas in which Sarah and I disagree. Sarah has an affection for fringe that I find disturbing, and I have an addiction to 3-inch heels that Sarah finds to be misguided, at best. However, there are many things we have in common: such as our shoe size, a love for waist-cinching belts, and undying devotion to Amy Swaney, our colorist and hairdresser at Shine Salon. The folks at Shine have made Sarah’s blond strands shimmer like diamonds, and have seen me through at least 12 different shades of red, all of which have inspired strangers to stop me on the street to shower me with compliments (something I have absolutely no problem with).

Now, Shine is teaming up with some of the coolest boutiques in town (like Lotus and Hong Kong Vintage) to put on a show that demonstrates how fun and easy it is to look good for work during the day, and kick it up a notch before you hit the town at night. They’re calling it “Transformations” (inspiring, no?).

Better yet, proceeds from the show benefit R.A.I.N. (Regional AIDS Interfaith Network), that supports local Charlotteans who are living with HIV or AIDS. They’ll also be raffling off free services from Shine, so don’t miss out!
