| Your Moment of Zen
The StyleLounge, staged for talent, executives and media attending
the Emmys “StyleLounge” at Chaz
Dean Studios (under the astute direction of Kari
Feinstein and Phil Viardo),
was one of Fall 2004’s most talked-about fashion events.
Though there were wonderful beauty products, jewelry and clothing
lines represented (some of which we hope will turn up in our style
section soon), we believe a lot of the event’s success lay
in the venue itself as well as the demeanor of its namesake host,
Chaz Dean. What may have been the
usual hustle-and-bustle was instead a very Zen kind of scene with
everybody in an uncharacteristically relaxed mood.
The good news is that you do not have to wait for an award show
or be a nominee to experience Dean’s brand of VIP well-being
and pampering. The salon, which offered services to Nia
Vardalos, Teri Hatcher,
Roma Maffia (“Nip/Tuck”)
and others, makes them available all year round. Regular clientele
taking advantage of what Dean has to offer includes Julianna
Margulies, Jamie-Lynn Discala,
Cloris Leachman, Neve
Campbell, Allison Janney,
Ming-Na and Lisa
Rinna. Among the hallmarks of the Chaz Dean Studio salon
is precision color, color correction, cuts tailored for “challenging”
hair textures, ethnic haircare options and the utterly delicious
Wen Haircare collection. Wen (available
in different formulas for different hair texture types) is the only
one of its kind. With its luxuriant consistency, unique cleansing
properties and gorgeous, subtle fragrances, Wen is a far cry from
hair products available at ordinary pharmacies.
“At our salon, we are all about
educating the client on how to maintain the health of his or her
hair, and teaching them about the best products to use and the right
way to use them,” says Dean. “ It's
all about the health and integrity of the hair.”
In addition to extraordinary hair care, there are other aspects
to Chaz Dean’s space that makes it even more of a retreat
than the average salon. The converted craftsman-style home also
has beautifully manicured gardens and an adjacent bungalow not only
selling the Wen products, but also exquisite home furnishings and
accessories hand-picked by the rock star-like Dean during his travels
around the world. For more information, visit www.chazdean.com.
This week, One lucky winner will get the star
treatment from Chaz Dean and his crew, while 2
runners up will receive a Wen collection gift basket similar
to the one celebrity invitees received at the StyleLounge.
