Settling into Spring

Spring began well for Atelier Emmanuel! Our March 22nd installation event, Atelier des Merveilles, was a success with over 200 guests stopping by to explore our rendition of a Wonderland.

2010 - Atelier des Merveilles

Spring is peak season for weddings, and we are ready with a bridal package which offers a full set of the services you need for your wedding day. Brides take notice: beginning April 15th and lasting until May 15th, we are offering a reduced rate on tanning sessions along with the bridal package. Discover below pics from our last bridal photoshoot. Also keep in mind that the same skills we offer brides are available for bridesmaids as well as for prom! During Spring cleaning we made some space on our shelves, so we have added some new products! First, we've brought back our favorite REDKEN products. We are also featuring Rene Furterer's newest product line, ACANTHE, designed to enhance curly hair. Enjoy!

REDKEN shampoos and conditioners

REDKEN Color Extend
Color Extend is dedicated to the care and preservation of color-treated hair. A perfect entry level product for everyday use.
REDKEN Blonde Glam
Blonde Glam is a specialty line for all types of blonde hair which clarifies color, reinforces the strength of the hair fiber, and activates its brilliance.

RENE FURTERER Acanthe Line

Five years in development, the Acanthe line is Rene Furterer's new curl enhancing system. The shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in fluid are all built around Acanthus extract. Acanthus extract disciplines curls and hydrates the hair fiber, making curls softer and more pliable.

The Shampoo gently cleanses curly hair, adding hydration, boosting definition, and controlling frizz. Light Bergamot aroma. Retail price is $23.
The Conditioner leaves hair easy to detangle and style. Acanthus Extract defines the curls, and Avocado Oil nourishes hair fiber. Retail price is $28.
The Leave-In Fluid adds bounce and enables shaping and remodeling of curls, all the while adding an anti-humidity shield to minimize frizzing. Retail price is $26.

Honoring Earth Day at Atelier Emmanuel

In recognition of Earth Day, 20% of our Rene Furterer product sales will be donated to Earth Day 2010 on Thursday, April 22nd.
