To help job seekers look their best from head to toe, Becker Salon on Mason Street in Greenwich and How to Say it With STYLE are teaming up with a special package for new customers, “Highlighting with Style.”
Available March 16 through May 15, the package includes a full head of highlights (normally $150 to $200) for $100 and a complimentary one-hour image consultation with How to Say it with STYLE. Ten percent of the proceeds will go to Kids in Crisis. Existing customers at Becker Salon will receive a 30 percent discount on all color services.
“We want to help women in this difficult economy the best way we can,” said Becker Chicaiza, founder and owner of Becker Salon. “Highlights, which we are offering at a special price, add dimension to the hair, create a sophisticated look and can brighten one’s appearance,” he added. This year, Becker brings a new repertoire of color techniques to the salon after participating in the L’Oréal Professionnel World Education Tour and attending the Mondial Coiffure Beauté in Paris last fall. There, Becker received a second-place award at a competition among hairdressers from around the globe at the Alexandre School.
Whether entering or re-entering the work force, women will benefit from a fresh and updated look, according to Phyllis Ayman, founder and president of the Greenwich-based How to Say it With STYLE, a firm that advises customers on creating their best image through style and fashion. “Fashion choices can convey a lot about a person, so therefore job seekers need to present themselves in the best possible light,” said Ms. Ayman. The one-hour consultation, to be scheduled at the customer’s convenience, will cover how to build an appropriate wardrobe for the job market and will include a fashion profile, analysis of body type and appropriate shapes and contours, suggestions for the most flattering colors and wardrobe essentials.
