Not to be missed.  A seminar with a difference, for all hairdressers with ambition, who want to learn more and go the extra mile, how to cut and style hair – the modern way, with options and business advice how to make more money, maybe even double your income.   “Train with the Masters” Edward Tricomi and Laara Raynier at the L’Oréal Professionel flagship Warren-Tricomi Salon at the Plaza Hotel in NYC on  Monday, September 19, 2022.  Attend either in person or virtually for a new form of education.

Edward Tricomi, industry rockstar, famous editorial hairdresser and salon owner, who has worked with the greatest of the greatest for the greatest magazines, is an innovative hairdresser on the fashion runways, who has done the hair of too many celebs to name, is a master of dry-cutting. Fast. With precision.  (He’s not known as Edward Scissorhands for nothing! ) has joined forces with Laara Raynier, a master of wet-cutting.  With precision.  She is a dedicated educator and protégé of Roger Thompson, and is now owner of the Mastercutter Academy.  The cutting techniques can be mixed.  And styling for all hair lengths, and textures, and updos, make this a rare event, not your typical workshop, an incredible opportunity to take your career or business to the next level.

The collage shows fashion-forward work by Raynier and Tricomi, some dating back to 2002, none of them dated, all modern and very wearable today. That’s Tricomi far left top row, and Raynier the first far left on the 2nd row.

Will Salons Be Blow Drying When Open – 2020

Posted by on Jun 22, 2020 in Helen's Blog | 0 comments

Will Salons Be Blow Drying When Open – 2020

Photos: Helen Oppenheim

A thought. Will salon stylists be blow drying while the Covid virus is still active? Will clients feel safe going to a salon where blow dryers are blowing all over the place, even at 6′ distances? Alternatives can be shorter haircuts, like the bob with the style cut in, here by Edward “Scissorhands” Tricomi –
cut dry backstage at the Rosa Cha Spring Summer 2008 New York Fashion Week Show. No blow dry needed on this lovely model, Barbara Berger.   Curly hair with the right cut can dry naturally and look good, like the original Sassoon Greek Goddess or the long natural look currently trendy. But let’s bear in mind, most people with straight or  barely curly hair need some volume here and there. Another alternative can be rollers, but remember how they usually make hair look old-fashioned. Other options are teasing, crimping, braids, wearing hair in an updo.   Or will the blow dry survive?

Helen Oppenheim Selfies. Helen haircut January 29 on the left, and on April 17, 2020. Due to the virus,  I cut my own bangs, did my own blow dry and color on the 11 week haircut by the one and only Edward Tricomi, co-owner of the Warren-Tricomi Salons I am amazed my hair looks so good after all this time, but don’t think it suits me longer, especially since I lost 8 lbs the last few weeks!   But, thanks, Edward, miss you, can’t wait to sit your chair again …

NYFW Backstage Hair Moment – 2004

NYFW Backstage Hair Moment - 2004

Photo: Helen Oppenheim

A New York Fashion Week backstage hair moment.  Love this.  Polly Mellen, the famous former fashion editor of Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Creative Director at Allure, and Edward Tricomi co-owner Warren-Tricomi Salons having a hair moment which also affected the model at the Douglas Hannant NYFW 2004 show.  Are you sure, Mellen seems to be saying?  No one seems sure, except the hairdresser, who  ended up doing a great job, as always. This scene is a testament to confidence, patience, experience and a lot of caring and how it is not easy to do the hair for a fashion show at this level.  This is one of the few photos I have digitalized, so far, from the shows I photographed on film in the early 2000’s. I have a lot  of great photos only on film.
