New News! Clients please read to be updated on exciting changes in salons! OH AND FREE PRODUCT

I am extremely excited to write this weeks blog post. I have decided to make a change in my working life. As of Tuesday July 9th, I am going to be working at Ultra Image Salon in Hendersonville! Some of you who have been with me for my entire career will know this as the very first place I worked. I started there right out of school and the girls there were generous enough to squeeze me into the space temporarily until I had a more definite idea of what part of town I wanted to be in. I have known these ladies my entire life and they really are more like family to me. They have completely redecorated the salon and I cannot tell you how beautiful it is. A station opened up and I have decided that it will be my new home, well really my new old home, going back to my roots. Every decision I have made in my career is for me to be able to serve you, the client, better. This new station is extremely roomy and comfortable, there is so much opportunity to learn, my schedule is more flexible, and I have the ability to sell you the products that I love and keep my stock of products up to date on what is new and current. I want to thank the owners and ladies of EnVme Hair Studio. I have so enjoyed my year working there and have made some wonderful friends that I will keep in touch with for a long time. Even though God has led me in a different direction it in no way is a reflection of the time I have spent at EnVme. I wish them the best in everything they do. All appts already scheduled for July 9th and forward are still valid so please do not hesitate to call or facebook if you need to cancel and reschedule because of the location change and I apologize for any inconvenience. I am still booking from my cell phone and facebook. My hours are going to be basically the same until Marcus and I can move back over to that area at the end of this year, however I do have more flexibility so if those hours don't work with your schedule please let me know and I will accommodate as best as I can! As a celebration for my new digs, I am offering every client that comes to me for the first 2 weeks at Ultra Image a FREE travel size product with any service. Men's Shampoo, Kenra Hairspray, Uplifting Foam, and Hydrocream Whip. This is a great opportunity to try a product you have been curious about without purchasing the big bottles. This is a thank you for your incredible loyalty and support through my career. You all keep me employed and I never ever forget that. Please text or personal message me for an appt and the exact address! So Much Love! KJS

BB Cream......worth the hype???

My thoughts on the BB Cream Phase a few months ago was negative. I am a person who likes a full coverage foundation and I thought that the BB Cream may not be enough for my liking. I work all day standing and sometimes fight the heat of the blow dryer and flat irons in the salon...Basically I need my foundation to last me!! Every time I run out of foundation I get a new brand, as a makeup artist I feel as though it is my job to know as much as I can about as many products as I can. I have tried Chanel, Nars, Laura Mercier, Bare Minerals and many others. All full coverage strong foundations. After hearing another friend say they LOVED this BB Cream they got I figured I better jump on board before I am left behind. While waiting to meet my cousin for mexican food....I am early everywhere I go....I researched the top 10 BB Creams and found that the one with the best reviews was Dior's. Me being typical me, I chose one of the most expensive ones. So soon after I made my trip home...to Green Hills Mall.... my favorite place in the world. I walked through the gates of makeup heaven into Sephora and walked to the Dior section to find that lots of other people liked this BB Cream...because it was out of stock. My bank account was protected. So after going around and sampling lots of different kinds I settled on Two Faced Beauty Balm.... and saved my bank account about $25....which I love

BB Cream is a mixture of foundation, sunscreen, primer, and moisturizer all in one. I can tell you that for the summer time I absolutely love it. It is sheer enough that it shows my summery freckles but provides enough coverage that my face does not feel naked. I apply mine with a Real Techniques Buffing Brush and apply concealer under my eyes and on any spots that need the extra good stuff.

I also got a tanner shade than my face is and I apply it with my hands to my neck because my chest and arms actually got a little color! And by a little I mean I am no longer glow in the dark. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking to try the BB Cream Mayhem. My skin feels amazing and is protected by the hot Tennessee sun this summer all the time. It is low maintenance and will last me all summer because a tiny bit goes a long way. Feel free to ask any questions that you have about BB Cream or Makeup in general! Happy Sunday! KJS

20% off all products this week! Sumer Updates!

Hello beauty blog readers! I am going to begin to post these blogs regularly again. I tried the youtube makeup videos and although they were very fun, the time commitment required was way more than I could handle. This is much more realistic. EnVme has been officially opened for one year as of this week! I feel so blessed to be a part of such a great group in a fabulous salon with amazing owners! To celebrate, we will have ALL of our products for 20% off! Tonight I am going to go through my personal favorites and explain their purpose and they client who needs them. Please stop by any day this week and pick up the product that suits you! We will start with Schwarzkopf Color Save Shampoo and Conditioner!

This shampoo and conditioner is ideal for my color clients. I use Schwarzkopf Color, therefore this is going to be the best option to keep your color lasting longer and staying fresh. Stick with the same line for ideal color results. Coloring your hair is an investment! You are going to spend between $50-$80 getting your hair colored so invest in a good quality shampoo and conditioner to make it last! Next Schwarzkopf Q-10 Shampoo and Conditioner!

This shampoo and conditioner is for the client with "matured" hair. Q-10 is in everyone's hair and is lost over time, color treatments, and general damage to the hair. This will make hair thicker, shinier, healthier, and younger. I have seen amazing results with my clients who use this shampoo and conditioner! Moving on to Paul Mitchell Platinum Shampoo!!

For my blonde ladies! Purple shampoo keeps the yellow out of your hair. Keeps blonde from going gold and brassy. I love this shampoo not only for that reason, but it also helps your hair feel amazing, healthy, shiny, and smooth. You can mix this shampoo with your everyday shampoo or just use it once a week to maintain beautiful blondeness. Tea Tree Shampoo and Conditioner!!

Great for my guys this shampoo and conditioner has a minty smell and leaves the scalp feeling tingly to wake you up in the morning! Also great for clients with dry scalp as well. Be careful as this product is not color safe! ONTO STYLING PRODUCTS! ITS A 10!

This photo says it all!!! if you have not heard of Its a 10 yet, you have been extremely hair sheltered :-) This is an all in one product that does everything! We carry the regular, lite, and keratin. We also have the volumizing products! Aquage Uplifting Foam

Our ALLTIME favorite and best selling root lifter! Excellent lift for those looking for a nice bump at the crown! Paul Mitchell Hydrocream Whip

My personal best selling product! This is for the client with fine to medium hair. This product can be used to shape curls while removing frizz as well giving body to clients who like to have hold as well. Perfect product for beach summer waves! Aquage Finishing Spray

A great medium hold hair spray that smells delicious! Who doesn't use hairspray?? Get a great one! Joico Color Therapy Serum

A serum that keeps color fresh and shiny. This product also smoothes frizz and can be applied to wet and dry hair. Unlike most serums it is not greasy nor does it weigh down the hair. Paul Mitchell Spray Wax

This product sprays into the hair after it is dry. Gives a "messy" look for clients with textured hair cuts. This is for that girl who doesn't want her hair too smooth or fixed. I prefer spray wax to messy waxes you have to put in your hands. The spray is much more convenient. Joico Joigel

Great product for my guys! Gives spikey hair great hold and will keep your style all day without wearing out. PLEASE feel free to ask any questions you may have and hope this was a helpful post!!
