Dr. Richard Eisen will Speak at “The Art of Beauty” Event on January 25thRead More
Massachusetts salon owner and internationally recognized industry expert in hair color, design and styling, Edward Blum, just returned from New York this week after working with the color and design team for fashion designer Donna Karan as she introduced her Fall 2010 collection during Fashion Week (February 11-18th).
Blum, who was a team colorist with the “dynamic duo” Christopher and Sonya Dove, was brought to New York’s Fashion Week by Wella Professionals as a colorist/stylist for Donna Karan’s models. Blum is co-owner of the prestigious Makeovers Salon & Spa, a state-of-the-art facility located in Easton with a staff of 80. Known for his artistry and technical knowledge, Blum has been a hair stylist for 31 years and a salon owner for more than 21 years. Makeovers Salon & Spa is his fourth salon and one of the largest salons and spas in Massachusetts.
“Donna Karan’s Fall collection has an emphasis on curves with gathered suiting, body hugging wraps and scarves. Hair style and color is all about looking very natural and approachable yet at the same time, ultra chic and refined. Any hint of brassiness in hair color is out. To get the gorgeous, shiny, natural looking hair that the models are sporting is definitely an investment,” noted Blum.
Blum shared some of the fashion trends that will be seen this fall:
• Hair color will be natural looking with glosses and glazes leading the way. Hair styles will be sporty and slightly edgy.
• Nails will be natural looking. Gel nails and gel polishes will be all the rage.
• Trends in body care will be bio-organic and very moisturizing.
According to Blum, “We’re really going to see a turn towards the natural and organic this fall and it will be reflected in hair style and make-up, even in spa treatments.”
Blum has worked alongside a number of greats over the years including Vidal Sassoon, Jon Louis David and Jaque Dessange. He trained with Alexandre de Paris and also served as the International Spokesperson and Market Leader for Wella Corporation for 15 years, providing hair design and styling for major hair shows in the U.S. and Europe.
He is a contributing writer to many professional beauty publications including Modern Salon Magazine, American Salon Magazine and Salon Today Magazine. No stranger to the stars, Blum has been the stylist for “One Life to Live” soap opera’s Christian Alfonso and Judge Maria Lopez of the “Maria Lopez Show” as well as for Buena Vista Studios-Disney, New England Today, Boston Channel 5 and Channel 4. He has won numerous awards and worked on many other stage, hair and fashion award shows over the last three decades.
On the local level, Blum holds the Northeast Cutting and Styling Championship title and his salon has been honored 15 times with First Place Reader’s Choice Award in all beauty categories. Additionally, he frequently serves as a consultant to many cosmetology schools in New England.

The adage “beauty comes from within” doesn’t just apply to the beauty of the soul…The beauty of your skin comes from within – and what you’ve been eating. The dermatologists at South Shore Skin Center know that beautiful skin depends on a number of factors and diet plays a significant part in your skin’s health and beauty.
South Shore Skin Center practitioners share their insight on various foods that may (and those that may not) help you maintain beautiful skin:
· Foods that are rich in antioxidants, such as fruits and vegetables are highly beneficial to the skin.
· Dairy is not beneficial to the skin, but it’s not bad for it either. There has been some controversy about dairy causing acne, but the doctors at South Shore Skin Center maintain that dairy does not cause acne.
· Whole grains that are low-fat are good for the skin. Bear in mind that grains such as flaxseed are better absorbed by the body if they are ground into meal before eating them. Adding at least one teaspoon of ground flaxseed to your diet per day is sufficient.
· Good hydration is good for the skin. Beware of drinking beverages containing caffeine, which is a diuretic. Drinking a lot of caffeinated beverages is not recommended because caffeine in large amounts will have a dehydrating effect. Drinking water is best for hydration.
· Try to eat foods that are rich in Omega 3s, which are essential fatty acids and benefit all organs. A typical diet that includes soybean oil has a much higher ratio of Omega 6, which actually blocks Omega 3 absorption. It’s better to eat foods made with olive or canola oil as these have a low ratio of Omega 6 and will not block the absorption of Omega 3s.
“When it comes to the health and beauty of the skin, the foods that we eat really do play an important part,” noted Dr. Richard Eisen, a board certified dermatologist and founder of South Shore Skin Center.
