Ashley Judd Hairstyles

Ashley Judd has been keeping a low profile these days, at least on the Red Carpets.  However, she surfaced on November 10, 2009 for an event honoring her.

The event was held by USA Today and was attended by Ashley, her handsome husband Dario Franchitti and some of her longtime friends such as Mandy Moore, Molly Sims, Morgan Freeman and Ellen Burstyn.

Melissa Sagemiller’s Hairstyle - Smooth, Sleek Half Up/Half Down Hairstyle

Melissa Sagemiller plays attorney Michelle Ernhardt who is a protege to the current district attorney Nick Balco (Currie Graham) on TNT’s Raising The Bar by Steven Bochco’s son Jesse.

Some critics have compared the beautiful blonde Melissa as a cross between Katherine Heigl and Rachel Nichols.

The actress rocks a light golden base with darker golden low lights and lighter baby blonde highlights.  Her tresses look healthy and shiny.

Even better, her hair color follows the current trend of softly fading from slightly darker roots to lighter ends as the strands flows from the top of her head to the ends.

Keep in mind that happy brides will tell all of their friends about your stunning bridal hair styling skills.  So will their mothers and attendants.  Good bridal hairdressers can surprisingly be hard to find.

Why?  Many hairdressers are unwilling to take on the stress of doing a bride’s hair on the day of her wedding or at her home. (more…)

Hairdresser Onita Luisi hails from Marlboro, New Jersey where she spins her fabulous hair designs at the salon known as Chips.  Onita has been training hairdressers for years.

Hair clients with a wide variety of ethnic hair types and textures visit the Chips Salon and Onita discovered that some of the hairdressers were shy about creating hairstyles for all types of hair.

With this knowledge, Onita submitted her own hair design portfolio of her top cut, color and hairstyles as well as brainstormed inspiration boards for a dream editorial shoot to a John Paul Mitchell Systems Photo Shoot Competition for the judges’ consideration.  Onita’s portfolio and dream boards won the competition.
