Curly Girl needs your help!
Bravo recently televised an episode of Tim Gunn's show "
Tim Gunn's Guide to Style" which unfortunately depicted its newest makeover model Ariana Vargas getting a fabulous curly cut by Lorraine Massey herself. Unfortunately the producers of the show decided to have her hair
blowfried straight for the final reveal!
This media depiction obviously helmed by the production team, debases Devachan's mission to embrace the natural texture of your hair and needs to be petioned!
This Sunday November 16th Bravo will be televising a re-run of this episode at 12 Noon and we ask that you watch and tell us what you think!
The following is a segmented recap taken from
this blogger's site.
Tim and Greta's challenge this week is Ariana Vargas. She is getting ready to move to Chicago to become head of Marketing and PR for a company that her sister is opening. The problem is, she has no clothes to go along with her new job and her new life. I mean, she does have clothes, but, yuck. She's got peeling shoes, sweaters with pills, sweat stains, and some really bad hemlines.
For hair and make-up Greta and Tim take her to Devachan Salon, which is a high end salon that specializes in curly hair. After years of not loving her hair, Ariana is encouraged to embrace it by Lorraine Massey, who is the original Curly Girl and known for helping people get in touch with their inner curl. Lorraine cuts her hair dry and tells her to move around as she cuts from different angles. She also cuts a good 6 inches off, which Ariana likes less and less.
After the cut, she goes off to Edward at Devachan Salon for color, and he gives her a lot of natural-looking highlights. Then it's back to Lorraine's chair again, where she clips her wet hair up and separates it based on Ariana's natural wave. She allows it to dry naturally, then shakes it out. Ariana says that it's going to take some getting used to, but she likes it.
With her new look complete, it's time for the fashion show.
Something, however, is still amiss. Greta can tell that Ariana is still a little freaked out by her haircut, but Ariana assures her that she will get used to it. Everyone is wowed by Ariana's new look as she sashays down the runway (and almost stops when she sees her sister there, because her sister was supposed to have been in Chicago), but Greta is tired of that hesitancy in Ariana's face. She can tell that the hair is REALLY bothering her. So before she can take her half-way face on her new look down the runway again, Greta straightens her hair.
