Sun, 18 Jul 2010 02:41:44 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en What a fabulous day!  This was the kind of day that reminds me of why we live in the city.  We pretty much lived the yuppy dream . It's not very often that Pete and I would try to go to midtown for dinner on a Saturday, much less a second ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=1011 I thought it might be fun (and it turns out a little challenging) to write a post from my new iPad! Let me start by agreeing right off the bat, that I didn't really need an iPad.  No one does. It's just another fancy electronic toy.  However, in my defense, since ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=1005 I was sitting on my front step the other evening, enjoying the glorious spring/summer weather.  The light was perfect, and I became inspired.  I went in search of my camera.  Unfortunately, I was sidetracked, by my two extremely evil dogs, who decided they didn't need to wait for me to ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=969 I was staring at my closet this evening.  The reason I happen to be sitting there was because of my son’s cat, Ebi.  We’re watching him for the summer.  He’s very pretty, and pretty much the flightiest cat I’ve ever seen.  He was yowling at me to pay attention to ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=959 I've written about some of my favorite products in the past.  So I thought maybe I'd focus a bit with some of my favorite TIGI products. Our best selling TIGI product just happens to be one of the products I use pretty much every day in the salon.  In the Bedhead ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=946 I shall return to my Happy Place soon, in the meantime, here's a rant...

This year I actually got paid to work my dream job!  I didn't see it at first, but during my second year working back stage at the West Coast Spring and Style Show, in ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=844 OK, most of you won't find this interesting, but hair geeks like me will. The other day a good stylist friend of mine changed a client's hair from grown out level 8 blonde, with level 6 roots, to a level 6 red.  By the time I saw the work, she had ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=835 Wow, I haven't posted anything since December.  So many fabulously bizarre changes it's hard to keep track!  I think to make sense of it all I will just make a list.  Not the most literary of styles, but my brain is not firing on all cylinders right now! 1.  I (we) ... http://davidmartinsstyle.com/blog/?p=829
