2014 Beauty Awards

 

What an exciting event to attend. A unique hair competition and fashion show with amazing acts in between. All to benefit Nevada Childhood Cancer.

 

 The nights events started at Stoney's at Town Square. Right off the strip. It couldn't have been a better venue! Everyone seemed excited for the night ahead. So much hard work and dedication was put into this production. You could just tell. The entrance was dazzling with painted women from Skin City Body Painting. It was so unique and tied in the whole scene. 

 

 Impressive is an understatement. Envy Foundation has a mission statement. It is as follows: "Promoting Industry Professionals and Local Charities through the Art of Hair and Fashion." I believe this night the Envy Foundation made their mission statement clearly known to the cosmetology industry. And really to any and everyone in attendance as well! Cosmetology is such an art that always seems to get the least praise. It is an art just like any other and hairstylist are artist as can be seen by the photos taken at The Envy Awards.

 

The team photos really show how much love and dedication these stylist have for their art. Check all the teams out here: Team Images

 

As a stylist you are a designer by the very definition. You create, cultivate and design your way through mediums: hair. It truly is an art form that needs to be put further to the top of the chain. Hard work is abundant. Creativity is a must and all of the contestants of the night really could not show you more creativity.

On with the first competition of the night!!  This is where things were going to start to get WILD! The Pin-up competition was so outrageous! These gals were ready to walk the runway! They were all so fabulous it was hard to just pick one!!!

Avant-Garde Winner- JM Hair Gallery was such a great team. You could tell they were having fun! Both models were so impressive on the runway (the Pin-Up model even did one handed push-ups center stage! It was so awesome that the audience was able to make their voice heard and vote thru text. The audience made such a wonderful decision. The hair and outfit was impeccable and if you thought that was it, their Avant-Garde model was on stilts! She spent the rest of the night on them too! pure dedication!

Winding down as we come to a wonderful nights finish I truly had a blast. It was such a great experience and from talking to the crowd everyone was excited to start this tradition and continue it every year.

 

 

The Envy Foundation is dedicated to improving and building this event. After speaking with and getting to know Envy Foundations President and CEO Ron Wada, I have come to the conclusion that this event is in the hands of one of the best! I cannot begin to tell you how excited I already am for what Mr. Wada has in store for everyone next year!! You really cannot commit to such a wonderful event without truly understanding the art and fashion world. And to put on such an event that showcases it all off to the world.

I would like to take this time to give my thanks to the eNVy Foundation, Nevada Childhood Cancer and a special thank you to Ron Wada President and CEO of the Envy Foundation. I was truly blown away by the love in the room and the talent on the stage.
Love always,
