Celebrity hair stylist, and Clairol Creative Director, James Brown paid a visit to Dublin on Friday last to launch Clairol's latest innovation. In the amazing surrounds of the €4.2 million Adelaide Penthouse apartment, guests were intorduced to Clairol's new Nice 'n Easy Colour Seal Gloss.
After a champagne reception, colour expert Laura Oakes gave an indepth lecture on the Nice ‘n Easy Colour Seal Gloss, which is a breakthrough in conditioning technology which helps to seal in beautiful colour, brilliant shine and maintain soft, silky coloured hair for up to six weeks. To date no other in-box conditioner on the market can provide this level of long lasting performance.
I've met James a number of times and each is a pleasure. It's easy to see whay he's ahead of his game, having worked with Heather Locklear, Johnny Depp, Julianne Moore, Juliette Lewis, Kate Moss, Liam Gallagher, Liv Tyler, Nicole Kidman, Patsy Kensit, Catherine Zeta Jones, Sarah Jessica Parker and Gwyneth Paltrow among others. The guy was in charge of his own team of assistants at London Fashion Week before the age of 23 - he's as good as it gets.
James believes that you have to ‘step out to bring something fresh in’ – by that he means he’s willing to experiment with new ideas before the masses are. He quietly gets on with new, subtle and natural looks, which are picked up on by others and taken to the fashion max. No surprise then that his best friend is Kate Moss, renowned for being ahead of the fashion posse when it comes to setting trends.
After the sumptuous lunch he told me that he was off to Galway for the weekend to visit family. Yet another creative force that Ireland can lay claim to!
Clairol Nice ‘n Easy Colour Seal Gloss will be available in stores nationwide from September 2005.
