Lux Knows Hair



The lovely ladies at Caren West sent us to Lux: The Salon in Grant Park to get our hair pampered. And did it ever!

Mimi worked magic on Cath's hair, giving it a choppy, swingy new cut with bangs. Cath also tried their deep conditioning mask that is like lip gloss for the hair. I can now say that Cath definitely has the shiniest hair of anyone I know outside of a Pantene commercial.

Lauren (great name, non?) gave me the most natural, gorgeous deep high/low light combo. My hair had been getting a bit brassy with so much high-lighting that I thought getting back to my AsianCajuns roots (pun intended) would be a good call.

Check out the before and after pics below (we've always been fans of exaggerated before/after shots):

BEFORE


AFTER


Thank you, Mimi and Lauren- you guys are awesome! Lux most definitely has the AsianCajun stamp of approval.
And thank you Kate and Caren- the sweetest, most fashionable PR ladies we know!

I also meant to put two thumbs up for the ladies at Lux for the wonderful job they did on your hair. My thumbs up in my last comment for the ladies at Caren West was because they sent you there. ;-)
