PRESS RELEASE

 

Emily Sikes Brings
Sunday Appointments and Brilliant Color to Christopher Noland Salon

 

Greenwich,
CT
, June 12, 2012--The Christopher Noland Salon is delighted to announce
that Emily Sikes has joined the creative hair-styling team at its downtown
location in Greenwich, CT. Ms. Sikes, who specializes in balayage (the European
technique of hair painting), will be available Friday through Tuesday for
coloring and styling appointments. Sunday hours, a new addition to the salon
schedule, will be particularly helpful for clients who often have no other time
for special treatments.

 

Sikes says the balayage technique
gives a shimmer effect (think beach blond highlights and sun-kissed brunettes)
because the highlights are painted on small sections of hair. “It’s seeing
which strands of hair need highlighting,” she says, “and then hand painting on
the color in a sweeping motion for the entire length of hair or just the ends
(a technique called ombre).” The technique is extremely versatile, she adds.

Sikes took her initial training at
Paul Mitchell in Rhode Island and then assisted for two and a half years with
top balayage specialists at Greenwich salons where the European technique was
widely used. She now has been doing balayage for five years and likes that the
highlighting lasts a long time and grows out with a natural effect.

 

Voted “Reader’s Choice” for Best
Salon Escape in 2012, Christopher Noland Salon is nestled in Greenwich, CT,
overlooking the trees and streetscape of fashionably busy Greenwich Avenue.
Other rejuvenating experiences available at the Salon include everything from
expert coloring, cutting, and styling to massage therapy to glowing facials and
makeup to health-conscious manicures, pedicures, and waxing.
