Diner

Savoring the '50s when waitresses used saucy lingo - "Adam and Eve on a raft" (two poached eggs on toast) and "Wreck 'em!" (make that scrambled) - Michael Albor, who's also a top educator for Aquage, puts a fresh spin on this long-ago culture and all the delicious styles that remain part of its unique allure. Is his gorgeous model meeting a secret lover? Has she pulled off Route 66 for a slice of "Eve with a lid on" (apple pie)? Or is she simply relaxing in a tuck-n-roll booth and savoring a cup of blonde before starting her shift? Whatever the true answer - if there is one - Albor has managed to leave us wanting more.

Classic Bride

Collection: 2011
The looks vary from classic to trendy. I recently traveled to New York for an exclusive photo shoot with one goal in mind: to create a romantic themed collection suitable for any princess bride. As Artistic Director of Sherri's Hair Salon in Bristol, Virginia, I wanted to expand the salon team's portfolio with wedding hair so that clients would know that those options were available to them. My daughter Amy Lauren, and a stylist at the salon, was the the perfect assistant. Seeing my daughter have the same passion for the beauty industry that I do is very rewarding for me. Before flying to New York for the big shoot, we brainstormed ideas for both hair and makeup. I even practiced the looks on Amy Lauren the day before to see how they would read on camera.
