Event Recap: Sexy Hair & Mr. Grey

GALENTINES DAY TIED UP WITH 

SEXY HAIR AND MR. GREY!

#ShadesofSexy

Last November I received an invite from my fabulous Sexy Hair reps, asking me to save the date to a very special movie screening event for 50 Shades of Grey, on February 13th. Even though it was three months in advance, I knew it would be crazy (smack in the middle of Fashion Week and Valentines Day) but I immediately said yes. Now mind you, I never read any of the books, but with all the hype surrounding this highly anticipated film and knowing how fabulous this would be, how could I say no? Well I was right! Sexy Hair did it again, with another jaw-dropping, sexy event. Upon checking in, we had a key tied to our wrists for entry to our very own private red room at the AMC Loews 34th Street - talk about a lucky Friday the 13th!

Key for "The Red Room" & Sexy Hair Swag

Once upstairs, we went through a red curtain leading to "The Red Room", complete with sexy, shirtless men and some serious sexiness (with photo ops, of course.) I was in awe at the amazing job the Sexy Hair team did, especially since they had no affiliation with the film, yet this event was the best hands down compared to many who did. Dolls were tied up and blindfolded (none complaining, but rather rushing to line up I might add), being served shots (now how's that for sexy?) and pouncing on the sexy, shirtless guy posing for pictures (I was one of them.)

Welcome to The Red Room...

RECAP: HERCULES WITH PALMERS & GIVEAWAY

#PALMERSHERCULES ADVANCED MOVIE SCREENING; 

HERCULES-APPROVED TOTE FILLED WITH PALMERS PRODUCTS!

When I hear "advance screening, Hercules and Palmer's" in the same sentence, I'm in: no need to tell me twice! This past Thursday on July 24th, Palmer's invited a group of Editors and Bloggers (myself included) to the advance screening of this summers blockbuster: HERCULES, starring "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson, this private event was held at the AMC on Times Square. I won't lie, it was pretty awesome to have an entire floor and concession stand, reserved just for us. With that said, you already know I ate...WELL!

After we were escorted upstairs via a private elevator and checked in, every seat had a Palmer's tote bag filled with Palmer's products. Palmer's is a long-time love of mine, as I have been using cocoa butter ever since I was a kid. The movie was a-m-a-z-i-n-g, packed with action, tons of laughs and a few gross gore-filled parts (I literally spit out my chicken finger in one scene!) I won't say too much, except that I will definitely see it again.

American Hustle: HAIR

American Hustle & 70's Hair Bustle

This 70's baby (I was born in '77) can't get enough of the hair in American Hustle, particularly Amy Adams (curl~gurl, duh.) Why?, well for obvious reasons AND the fact that is quite simple: wash & go! This film had me focused more on the hair, than the actual wardrobe!
