Eskandalo!

For the holidays this year, make it a point to buy local, and support the small businesses who are doing their best to grow the local economies and help each other out. Need some tips? How about some ideas for gifts $10 and under? Here is a start to what I hope to be a very long list:

Eskandalo!– We have hair bows by Cute As A Button, clip in extensions and of course gift certificates for $10 and under

Loose Threads Boutique– they are a more high end store, but they have plenty of accessories and stuff for $20 and under. A lot of their stuff is handmade locally too!

Homebase Skateshop– $10 t-shirts, screenprinted locally by LVAC, skate DVDs, sunglasses, stickers, etc.

Deja Brew– Bags and bags of coffee! And a gift certificate to an awesome lunch stop and cafe is always much appreciated!

Play It Again Records– tons of used CDs and vinyl, stickers, post cards, videos- you name it.

Abe’s Cold Beer– Amazing selection for the beer enthusiast on your list

Tallarico’s Chocolates– fill up a box of AWESOME for $10 for sure. Yumm

Home & Planet has LOADS of items for $10 and under- all sustainable items too so you can do all your shopping here guilt free!

Apotheca salon and boutique– another higher end place that has more stuff in the $20 and under category as far as small things go, but for under $10 you can get hair bands that are super cute and glittery, as well as certain makeup items.

Cleo’s– lots of interesting and beautiful ornaments for lower prices are available here

Blind Willow Book Shop in Emmaus has a TON of awesome books all very reasonably priced.

Queens– get all kinds of natural skin care products, organic chocolate bars, cute recycled bags, pet stuff etc

The Secret Art Space– hosting yet another indie craft mart on the 18th! Buy from local artists and stuff!

Christmas City Village– every weekend til Christmas, go to this awesome new market for all your shopping needs!

So there you have it– a nice start right? Who knew the Valley had so much to offer you all for your holiday shopping! Keep it local this year and do what’s right for you and your family and the future generations to come by building strength in your own back yard! We appreciate it!

With love, Eskandalo!

Hey everyone! Over the past few years, we have hired a wide array of experienced stylists. Some are new out of school, others have a few years experience, and then there’s the few that are the pillars of strength and influence of the entire salon.

These are the few that set the bar- the stylists that have been there, done everything– they are the ones that keep Eskandalo on the up and up, and for that, we have decided to crown them Master Stylists! They have over 10 years under their belts and deserve the recognition that goes with it. So without further ado, the stylists we are elevating to this level are~

Nikki- 20 years

Alison Leigh- 18

Marybeth- 15

Heather/ Rabbit- 13

clockwise from upper left: Rabbit aka Heather, Nikki, Alison Leigh, and Marybeth

Their prices will be reflecting this new title and the changes are as follows:

CUTS

Chin length and shorter- $35

Medium/ shoulder length- $40

Long/ below the shoulders- $50

COLOR (all starting prices)*

Single process root touch up- $65

Partial Highlight- $70

Full Highlight- $90

Highlight/ color combo- $120

Double process- $80

Color correction- $120

*all prices vary based on length, density of hair and complexity of the process

We hope you agree that this is a very much deserved improvement, and that you will feel even MORE special coming to the shop to see a “Master Stylist”, as well as continuing to support our regular and senior stylists. We aim to keep this job one that a stylist can grow with and keep challenged and engaged. We love our staff and want to keep them for as long as we possibly can!

Hey everyone! We are so excited for the cooler weather and with it comes some yearly color maintenance. In order to keep your color looking fresh and new, it’s important to discuss with your stylist what they think would be best for you. So what we are offering for this season is a different kind of promotion- one that basically is tailored for YOU specifically!

Call, in and schedule an appointment with your stylist and tell them you’d like to “autumn-ize” your color. Your stylist will know that means you want to go the whole 9 yards with it. If you get highlights, it’s time to tint back your in between hair with your natural color so it looks brand new. If you usually only do your roots, then you need to refresh all of your hair this time. If you’re getting too light, it’s time to tone it back a bit.

We also have a LOVELY assortment of autumn hues to choose from to update your look to reflect the current trends. So what we are saying here is, call in to get your hair “autumn-ized” and receive 20% off your service!

AAaaannddd— We are having a raffle contest for you all! The winner gets a years supply of Sebastian shampoo and conditioner!! All you have to do is come in and purchase any one of our products and you get to put your name into the raffle. Purchase 1 product and get 1 ticket, purchase 2 products get 3 tickets and purchase 3+ products and get 5 tickets to put into the raffle!!! How exciting!

Hope to see you all soon! <3

HAPPY SUMMERTIME!

Here’s a great article about the event!

We are sorry to see a fellow salon go- but we are also quite sorry for the clients who have gift certificates they either bought or received and now can’t use! We, at Eskandalo, will honor any gift certificates issued from TC Salon in the last 6 months from today, for $100 or less to help anyone out who was a victim of this! We are sad to see so many of our friends and former co-workers lose their jobs today, but we also feel for the clients who are displaced! We will offer this until further notice. Spread the word!
-Alison Leigh
