Shu Uemura to Shut Down US Counters.

Last week, L'Oreal announced that Shu Uemura will shut down all of it's United States counters. It will continue to be sold overseas and online through it's website at shuuemura.com.

Here is the official word I received from the public relations department:

"You will still be able to purchase Shu Uemura products at shuuemura.com. The only change with the brand is that you will not be able to buy Shu Uemura on counter at department stores or in boutiques in the United States, as they are phasing out these locations in the coming months. However, the brand will continue to introduce new product offerings on their web site, where it will continue to be available. The Shu Uemura Art of Hair line will not be affected at all by this decision, and will continue to be sold through upscale hair salons as it is now, in both the United States and abroad."

The Sheer Blonde Entourage Tour - All the Info Here.

I know I am not the only one excited for John Freida's Sheer Blonde Entourage tour that kicks off this week in New York City. Here are all of the details of the event. Hope to see you there!

From my press release:

The John Frieda® team is out to prove that blondes really do have more fun with the Sheer Blonde® Entourage, a series of events and perks available for blondes. The blonde VIP program begins this March in New York City with a private performance by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and blonde icon Natasha Bedingfield, who is currently in the studio finalizing tracks for her next studio album. Open exclusively to blondes, the elite event offers fair-haired girls the royal treatment, from makeovers at hair stations to complimentary food and beverages—all set to the music of Natasha Bedingfield.

The John Frieda® team is inviting blondes to audition to win the chance to perform on stage with Natasha at a concert on her tour by uploading a video to YouTube. Natasha will judge submissions and help choose the winner, who will receive a makeover courtesy of the John Frieda® brand and renowned celebrity stylist Harry Josh before appearing on stage with Natasha during her concert tour.
