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!
