When celebrities and trendsetters hightail it to one of Kari Feinstein's pre-awards events, they often walk out prettied up through a selection of beauty services and a bag full of goodies they can try out later in preparation for public appearances. However, at Kari's MTV Style Lounge for the 2008 MTV Movie Awards, nobody provided instant gratification quite like A-list hair designer Sean James who introduced the exclusive cadre of guests to the wonders of hairXpression by Balmain Paris, couture clip-on hair pieces that could even enhance the locks of people famously endowed with fabulous manes.
In a quiet, secluded part of a $110 million dollar Bel-Air estate, James taught the likes of Debra Messing, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, Christina Milian, Shannon Elizabeth, Tamara Feldman, Briana Evigan, Ashley Scott, Nikki Blonsky, Jai Rodriguez and Scout Taylor-Compton how a little add-in could make a huge difference, whether the goal is to fill out and thicken natural hair, add some trendy bangs or have some fun with hits of outrageous color. According to company president Mercedes Torres-LaZich, the HairXpression by Balmain Paris line is making similar waves with industry professionals, via LA Fashion Market. "Stylists and buyers from around the country will be under one roof checking out the sizzling new hair trends in fashion, from clothing accessories to hair accessories like hairXpression," she says.
With these versatile new Memory Hair extensions featuring 20% more thickness per square inch and a patented Soft Blend Edge ("invisible integration"), these cool couture clip-ins offer any user an endless array of styling options once reserved for celebrities and models. Better still, they couldn't be easier to use or maintain.Color pieces don't fade. Repeated thermal styling no problem. Style locks in...hair extensions (even when wet) "remember" their shape despite Summer weather and daily dips in the pool.
