It’s that time of year again ladies! At Adoralee we will be chugging peppermint mocha’s and ho ho ho-ing all of the way up until December 20th. If you shoot on or before this date you will be guaranteed to get your products back by Christmas. There really isn’t anything better to give to the one you love the most than something that they could never buy for themselves. 

We still have some openings so if you have forgotten what to get that special someone give us a call. We have the coolest new Christmas special that is unlike any special we have ever run before. It comes with:

·         2 outfits

·          2 sets

·          1 whole hour of shooting,

·         a full hair and makeup look including false lashes

·         10 retouched digital images.

Our special is only $275, and spots are booking up fast! We are also booking for Valentine’s day. If you call after hours, we are probably carting our screaming kids around target trying to get some Christmas shopping done, but we will get back to you as soon as the Benadryl kicks in! (Joking... sort of.) 

My last blog post was about cutting my bangs and what a huge issue it was for me. Then in walks this crazy gorgeous girl with the most magnificent hair I have ever seen! It really made me realize that all those beauty rules can just take a hike. Do what makes YOU feel good. Wear what make YOU feel good!

Not long before Ricky Martin's hit She Bangs was released...I also lusted after Bangs.

It all started in 1998, when I met the most beautiful and popular girl in school, Brandy. Besides being captain of the Junior Varsity Cheer Squad, she had long blonde hair and barrel bangs. I wanted those bangs so bad! I even tried it, but because of my widows peak they kept flopping to the side. Like all 12 year olds with popularity obsessions, I was heartbroken and resolved to never have bangs.

Flash forward 16 years and I’m standing in the makeup room of the studio with scissors and a fist full of hair.

Did I mention I had an audience? Shelby pleaded with me to stop the madness, and Ashley was content to watch the crazy unfold. I felt pretty confident after watching some YouTube tutorials. Afterward I quickly realized I needed help….professional help!

Drea to the rescue! This girl saved my hair and made me look amazing.

What’s the verdict on the bangs? I’m just not sure yet. I like them a lot. It’s fresh, fun, and cute. Which are adjectives that have never been used to describe me. My family isn’t as excited about them and the people pleaser in me wants to grow them out immediately. Oh well, guess they’ll just have to get used to it.

A dark smoky eye with fringe bangs can be crazy sexy. Wanna try it for your shoot? Step away from the scissors and try these clip-on bangs from Ulta for your boudoir shoot.

Our hair and makeup artists can style them for you!
