Hello and Happy New Year Powder Room Brides, I’m so excited about 2010!  The year of all of your Weddings and we are so looking forward to spoiling you all with your Wedding day hair and make up!

It’s all about Dreaming and imagining your own most amazing Wedding day and we would love to be a part of your special day!

Our phones are going crazy and we are already turning away brides, although we’d love to look after you all!

Powder Room hair and make up artists only spoil one bridal party per Wedding day, so call early in the year to avoid disappointment.

By the way The new “Brisbane Bride” for 2010 is out and we have 6 pages of our beautiful new bridal hair and make up collection, check it out

Here is a sneak preview of one of our new images from the collection!

I wanted to share with you a 2 minute visualisation, compliments of the gorgeous girls who wrote the book ” Like Chocolate for Women” to help you relax whilst planning for your big day.  Thoughts are powerful and provoke a physical response on the central nervous system.  Try it and see how you go!

Sit down, close your eyes and imagine yourself on a holiday – pick your favourite place.

Start to hear the sounds and smells of your holiday place; choose to believe you are there.  Stay there a while then come back.

Your body does not know what reality is; it only responds to what the mind is telling it.  It you are uptight and stressed the body will respond by shortening your breath, creating the ‘nervous butterfly feeling’ and teasing muscles.  However, if your mind thinks it is relaxing on a beach listening to the waves, you will slow your heart rate down, relax your muscles and release endorphins (otherwise known as pleasure hormones), making a dramatic change to your body in just 2 minutes.

Hi again, it’s Karen and I must say Edward Cullen can bite my neck any day!!

The Twilight fever with the release of the  movie “New Moon” is so this second.  Powder Room stylists love seeing the influence of the celebrities hairstyles and make up, apart from the face that we have all read the books and are addicted.  We would of course love to do the hair and make up on the set.  You never know…..

The premier of the movie  in LA saw lots of liquid liner, severe hair and pale skin.

We absolutely loved celebrity Jenny Garth’s red carpet hairstyle.  The vampy braided quiff bob style looked so simple and fresh.  It looked amazing with defined dark eyes.  Mac Liquid last liner in point black gives that perfect black patent line and of course finished with lots of lashes.

Ashley Greene was another stunner on the red carpet.  Her hair looked amazing with her bouffant curls and the  help of extensions. The look was 60′s inspired.  Along with the black liner the inside of the eyes was lined with white liner, to open the eyes even more.  Shu Umemura’s Painting liner in White is a must for this season!

Extend hairpieces are a great way of adding extra length and no one will know, Powder Room can hire hairpieces for your Wedding day hairstyle, adding extra length and thickness to your hairstyle.  Ask your Powder stylist at your trial.
