So I got a chance to work as an assistant at the Nashville Hairshow (aka Groupie Gathering). As you can see, I had a blast! This is my 4th time working the hairshow and my 2nd time in Nashville. Like I mentioned in my last post, I usually help with Goldwell's (the haircolor company that I am an educator for) presentation. This time I thought that I was going to be working with Pureology but instead I was assigned to work with Brad Ngata from KMS.
Brad was very nice. He put me in charge of most everything. From coloring the models hair with my own formulations to pre-setting all of the models hair for his presentation. I worked with him for 2 days before the actual show. We didn't have much time to talk but I did learn that he was a hairstylist from Austraila. Well, apparently that's not ALL he is!
On the day of the show, the atmosphere is hectic backstage. You have to make sure all the models are prepped, dressed and in line. I am backstage but we can see everything on these huge monitors, including the introductions of the Guest Artists. When it was time to introduce Brad they played a 10 minute video about him. I was amazed to find out that I had been working with Austraila's two time winner of the "Hairdresser of the Year" award! What an honor!

wow donna! that's so cool! Did you get any new ideas for my cut?
Love the slide show!! What a great weekend...had so much fun working with you! :)
Awesome slide show and great website. It looks great! Had fun working with you all!
ooohhh hs of the yr did you get his autograph? No, I'm serious, did you? Did you at least get to touch him. Man, what would even be better is if he let you do his hair. Or, better yet even, if he did your hair. That woulda been tight. I think i would've made him. Um, your slide show is too fast for me! Is there any way I can slow it down? I really want to LOOK at the pictures!
