Ultimate Fighting Champion (UFC) Hall of Famer and 2009 Dancing With The Stars competitor Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell and his girlfriend Heidi Northcott enjoyed a day of relaxation at Makeovers Salon + Spa in Easton before the big mixed martial arts “Fan Expo” event at the Hynes Convention Center last week in Boston’s Back Bay.
Kicking back in Makeovers plush, relaxing Couples Suite, Liddell enjoyed a 90-minute Deep Tissue Massage from Marilynn Lima who had worked on Texas Rangers Pitcher CJ Wilson a few weeks back. Northcott received her 90-minute Deep Tissue Massage from Teresa Flaherty.
According to Liddell, “The Makeovers crew treated me as if I had walked into their home. We had a great time. This will be my ‘go to’ spot when I come into the city.” He continued, “The place was really amazing. Total luxury and just 30 minutes outside of Boston.”
Ed and Norah Blum, owners of Makeovers Salon & Spa said, “It was an amazing experience to see how well-rounded an athlete Chuck is. He is truly a gracious gentleman.” Blum jokingly noted, “I would be thrilled to work with the UFC again. I feel safer working with them than against them.”

Makeovers Salon & Spa of Easton has undergone a transformation. What was once a 6,000 square foot upscale hair salon and spa located at 574 Washington Street, has become a 13,200 square foot “paradise” for the body, mind and soul.
From the high-end hair salon to the relaxing cafe to the peaceful tranquility room and expansive Day Spa, Makeovers Salon & Spa has been transformed into a “Mecca” for beauty and wellness.
Owned and operated by renowned, award-winning designers Edward and Norah Blum, Makeovers’ sophisticated salon now boasts 26 styling stations and 16 coloring stations manned by seasoned design professionals who have the most advanced training (on an international level) in the latest color and cutting techniques.
Steps away from the salon, clients can enjoy refreshment or gather with friends in the relaxing cafe which is complete with a soothing water feature.
The state-of-the-art Day Spa offers nine treatment rooms, with a special couples suite containing a double Jacuzzi and massage area. The manicure room has doubled to eight and the private pedicure room, with pipeless units, can hold six clients at once. The spa also houses women’s and men’s locker rooms with jetted spray showers as well as a Vichy shower room for after body treatments.
Services offered at the Day Spa include facials, laser treatments, massage, manicures, pedicures, wraps, body treatments and waxing. Clients can sooth the mind as well as the body with reflexology and aromatherapy. Makeovers’ spa can accommodate parties of 4 to 40 and they offer special packages such as Day of Beauty, Bridal, Groom, Couples and Men’s packages.
Perhaps the most unique addition in the Makeovers’ expansion is their Tranquility room. After spa services, clients may “take a moment away from it all” to relax and de-stress in the dimly-lit, sound-proof room that is complete with plush, reclined seating, waterfall, calming music and a refreshment/snack area.
According to Edward Blum, “With our expansion, we have literally become the largest salon and spa under one roof in the state. We have a staff of more than 80 providing hair styling and coloring; nail and spa services. When we were designing the salon and spa, we wanted to bring back the best of all the salons and spas we had experienced in our travels around the world and incorporate these elements into Makeovers. We want each client to feel truly pampered, as if s/he is our only client. We wanted to give our clients the five-star experience and we believe we’ve achieved our goal. Makeovers has become more than a salon and day spa – it’s really a destination.”
Makeovers Salon & Spa has been honored 15 times over the years with First Place Reader’s Choice Award in all beauty categories.

Paradise Found – Makeovers Salon & Spa of Easton ExpandsRead More
New shoes, new clothes and a must-have new hairstyle for fall. Local salon owner and internationally recognized style and color expert Edward Blum shares the best back-to-school styles straight from the runways of Fall Fashion Week.
Edward Blum, who owns the prestigious Makeovers Salon & Spa of Easton with his wife Norah Blum, served on the Wella team for celebrity designer Donna Karan as they introduced the DKNY Fall 2010 collection during Fashion Week. Below, he shares tips on how to obtain easy, sophisticated runway hairstyles for fall:
Classy Ponytail – This timeless hairstyle should be worn low and softly off to the side to create a simple yet spectacular look this fall. To achieve this look, pull hair from a loose pony and slide it to the side of your choice. Hair length does not particularly matter, although for shorter hair using clip on extensions to achieve the best look is a must. You can also purchase a weft of hair from your local extension retailer to add extra fullness and length to the pony. To get more of a sophisticated look, wrap a small section of your hair around the hair tie.
Waffle Waves – This look is about a thick loose natural wave that is very complementary and feminine. Starting with damp hair add a small amount of styling gel all over. Gather and section your hair into 6 small parts. The front of your hair should be parted in the direction you would typically wear it. Braid each section, keeping it 4 to 5 inches away from the part. The key is keeping the braids very large. Smaller braids will create more of a crimped look. When hair is fully dry, disband and run fingers through entire head.
Organic Stone Inspired Color – To achieve the best possible color, these techniques should be performed by a professional. For blonds and cooler blonds, a multi-dimension balayage method would be ideal this fall. This means that your stylist designs and places multi-colored highlights and low lights to produce a granite or slate stone color effect. Thanks to Eva Scrivo and Wella Hair Color.
Side Braid – This will work with any size or shape of the braid. For more of an impact a very large loose braid works best. Plates woven from one side of the head bandaging the front of the hair is a popular choice. Braids will be everywhere this fall.
Short Haircuts – Very military inspired androgynous short hair pairs beautifully with today’s high fashion styles such as the tuxedo inspired look for women and blazers with high shoulder pads. This cut starts with a barber taper neckline, very short sides and the top being one length. Unlike last season, the asymmetrical bold and edgy look is fading quickly. This season, short cropped sides, and long top rounds the look. Hair can be worn slicked back or soft and forward as you like.
According to Edward Blum, “Most of the styles you’ll see this fall are very natural and easy to obtain. The emphasis is on chic, without a lot of fuss.”

This year, the number of prom hairstyle masterpieces created at the Blum’s Easton based Makeovers Salon & Spa topped every year previous – with more than 60 senior prom clients in one afternoon.
“Each year, we outdo ourselves with the sheer number of prom hair-dos that we create. The atmosphere in the salon on prom day is just electrified – it’s an amazing experience. We have a staff of 85, and half of our designers work on prom clients all day,” explained Blum.
Easton’s senior student body is comprised of more than 250 seniors. According to Blum, “Our salon caters to a large number of these students. The demand for stunning hairstyles is pretty significant and we’re able to easily meet that challenge year after year.”
Tayla Smith, a Senior Stylist at Makeovers noted, “The most popular prom hair style this year was the teased and curled ponytail. Almost every senior girl wanted a side swept, loose curl configuration reminiscent of the Red Carpet Events held this year.

Makeovers Salon + Spa’s Record Breaking Number of Prom “Do’s”Read More
…Edward Blum, internationally recognized colorist/stylist and owner of Makeovers Salon & Spa, the largest in the state, shares spring and summer fashion tips for hair, nails and skin.
Blum, who attended the 2009 fashion shows in New York which unveiled the 2010 Spring collections and who just returned from serving on the Wella team for celebrity designer Donna Karan at Fashion Week 2010 as they introduced the DKNY Fall 2010 collection, offers his insight on the hottest looks for spring and summer:
1)Neutral colors, watercolor prints and bright florals will be predominant in clothing, but as far as make-up is concerned, the palate is nude and the effect is soft. The natural look is in, but full on, which means eyebrows are groomed and predominant, lashes are lush and make-up is nude with hint of blush. That splash of bright color on the lips will be the key feature and matte coral-reds will be most popular colors.
2)There’s a huge movement towards the organic and natural. More and more fashion designers are using organic cotton and linen textiles. Think “hippie-chic”. To go along with this, nails will be natural looking and gel nails and neutral colored gel polishes will be hot.
3)Whether hair is long or short, the style will be sporty and carefree. Hair color will be very natural looking with glosses and glazes leading the way. Talk to your stylist/colorist about which hair color/style would best suit you and how to acheive that “just rolled out of bed but still look fabulous” sporty type of look.
4)Skin care will be a top priority. The natural look demands beautiful skin. Organic, very moisturizing skin products will be at the top of everyone’s list for skin care. Skin treatments such as Microdermabrasion, which is a skin resurfacing treatment used to rejuvenate and restore a natural glow to the skin, will be very popular. Microdermabrasion works on all skin types and helps get rid of blemishes and acne and gives a healthy, youthful appearance.
