Model Call Announced.

Balance Hair Spa Model Call!!

Our team of designers are working on creating the most up to date looks and trends in the art of hair. We are looking for hair models to use for upcoming photo shoots and competitions. All models must give our designers complete freedom to create the looks needed for these competitions and photos. This includes coloring, cutting, retexturing of the hair, makeup and wardrobe. This would be a great opportunity for someone who is currently in beauty school to learn how a look transforms for photos. 

We will be hosting a model call on Monday February 18th from 4-8pm. If you are seriously interested, please stop by between those hours for a quick snapshot of you and to answer a couple questions. 

Models will not be paid for their services, but will be compensated with products and a photo of your finished look.

Welcome Edward Shaffer, LMT, our newest Massage Therapist!

Edward is a Licensed Massage Therapist and a graduate of the Central Pennsylvania School of Massage in State College. He is Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork and is a member of the Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals. While practicing massage for over 15 years at his own business, Edward has continued his education in different massage modalities, including Deep Tissue, Sports, and Myofascial Release.

 

Each session he performs is unique and designed specifically for the clients’ needs. Finding the correct modality for each individual and their personal preference is Edward’s personal goal. The most rewarding part of his work is seeing the positive results and affect it can have on the lives of others.

  

His passion for health and fitness has led him to believe, ”If you have high demands for your body then you need to give back to it and treat it right.” Massage is a great way to do just this!

Edward is taking appointments on Fridays.

Support our community’s Toys for Tots campaign by donating a new, unwrapped toy at Balance Hair Spa. Help us fill our donation box!

Visit Chester County's local Toys for Tots website or donate online.

Not sure which toys are needed?  Here's a few tips from our local Toys for Tots Coordinator:

0 to 2 Years Infant Group
Usually have a large abundance of toys donated for this group.

3 to 7 Years Group
Always have a large abundance of toys donated, as this is the easiest group to buy for.

8 to 12 Years Group
One of our tougher groups during the collection times. This age group may be harder to buy for.  Games, arts and crafts, books and sports balls are all good for this group.

12 to 14 Years Group
This group can be extremely tough to buy things for, so donations here may be needed most. Though age-appropriate toys are expensive or tough to find, things like arts and crafts, watches, bath sets, cosmetics, books and backpacks are good things for this group.

Hurry in! Toy drop-off ends on Friday, December 7.

Bringing the Joy of Christmas and delivering a message of Hope to needy children.

Balance Hair Spa is a proud sponsor of the 8th Annual Mommy’s Light Race for Traditions charity event.

For the past four years, we have proudly supported Mommy's Light, a children's charity that is near and dear to our hearts. This wonderful organization helps bereaved children who have lost their mothers by continuing cherished family traditions and providing bereavement support. The annual Mommy's Light 5K & 1 Mile Fun Race is one of the charity's largest events, and Balance Hair Spa is bronze-level sponsor again.

How can you help?

• At your next appointment, purchase a "Heart for Mommy" for as little as a $1 donation.  Fill out your card "In Honor of" a family member, friend or loved one, or "In Memory of" a special person who has passed. We will display all of the cards in our salon. Please help us reach our goal of 100 Hearts for Mommy cards!

• Join us for the 8th Annual Mommy's Light 5K & 1 Mile Race on Saturday, April 28, in Eagleview Town Center, Exton.  Bring your whole family to this fun event!  In addition to the 5K Run/Walk, there is a 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk, a Stroller Start, Tot Trot (ages 2-5), and fun children's events, such as free ice cream for children from an old-fashioned ice cream truck.  Last year, there were over 700 participants!

Before and After Photos: Dreamcatchers Hair Extensions

Recently we had a new client visit the Balance salon with a hair crisis. She came to us with extremely damaged hair from a salon in the Washington DC area. Our Artistic Director Trisa worked closely with her to best restore her hair's health and style.

After a good cut and conditioning treatment, they decided on Dreamcatchers Hair Extensions to give her long flowing locks again. Trisa carefully matched the color and wave of her existing hair. Within a few days (using rush service), our client had an envious head of loose blonde waves.

Take a look at these dramatic before and after photos.

Before Photos: Our new client came in with extremely damaged hair from another salon.

After Photos: Our client loves her new Dreamcatchers Hair Extensions.Considering hair extensions for yourself? Add length to your hair. Or add body and fullness to fine, thin or thinning hair.

This month, don't miss our incredible special — $100 OFF a full-head of Dreamcatchers Hair Extensions with Trisa! Hurry in for your consultation today, this special ends on April 30, 2012. Request an appointment.
