VU Hair Salon at The Peninsula New York

I recently had my first visit to VU Hair salon, at the Peninsula Hotel in New York, for a quick styling session. I had been on a plane all day, so my hair went from incredibly flat to beautifully styled in a matter of minutes thanks to Danny! As tired as I was from my flight, I felt a million times better with the voluminous curls in my hair. I was amazed at how full and shiny my hair looked, and that was just from a dry styling session!

I also met with the VU Hair team, including salon owner Vu Nguyen, and Amy Mrkulic, who just joined the VU Hair team. I would love to visit VU Hair again for a color / cut and drastically change my hair color for spring! The salon also offers makeup and nail services, with Zorina Czora as Makeup Artist/Bridal Specialist.

VU Hair also has the most amazing penthouse view of the city to enjoy while you get your hair styled!

Getting Gorgeous at Angelo David Salon during NYFW

During New York Fashion Week last month, I got gorgeous at the Angelo David Salon, located on the 2nd floor of 420 Madison Avenue, between 48th and 49th Streets. To get ready for my evening of fashion shows, I got glammed up with a complimentary blowout, manicure and makeup session. After applying shampoo and conditioner, I decided to have my hair styled with loose waves, then a manicure using Morgan Taylor's "Paris With Love," a burgundy color and a cat eye and burgundy lip for my makeup look.

The best part about getting your services done at Angelo David Salon is that you can have multiple services done at the same time! My hair and nails were being done simultaneously, and my makeup touchup was applied while my nails were drying. I was worried about timing and it was no worry at all! I was done in about an hour!

I received so many compliments on my look, as I finished up my last day of fashion week with Zang Toi backstage, Miguel Vieira's show, followed by Marcel Ostertag. Thanks to the Angelo David Salon team for getting me glammed up this season!

#DReadeLOOK Tweetup at the Duane Reade LOOK Boutique

On Friday, April 13th, I met up with fellow bloggers at the Duane Reade LOOK boutique located at 40 Wall Street. During the #DReadeLOOK tweetup, I indulged in a unique beauty experience while exploring all the brands the LOOK boutique offers.

I couldn't think of a better way to spend my Friday evening, first starting out with a shampoo, blow out and styling with natural, loose waves, using Phyto hair care products - Thank you Tania, my hair looked amazing! Next I got my nails polished at the nail bar with essie's Too Too Hot. Thank you Carmen! For my last beauty treatment I headed over to the makeup station for a touchup - many thanks Asha! The LOOK boutique also offers eyebrow shaping, eyelash extension applications and skincare analysis consultations.

I know I'll be back to shop the plethora of beauty brands at the LOOK boutique, including Blow hair care, Vichy Laboratoires skincare, Pop Beauty, Borghese and Becca Cosmetics.

Also, if you happen to get thirsty or hungry while getting your beauty fix, there happens to be a sush and smoothie bar at this Duane Reade location. It really is one-stop shopping in here! Thank you Duane Reade for hosting the #DReadeLOOK tweetup!
