If you did not attend the Hair Wars event at the Enclave on 4/17/2011 you missed a good event. The event consisted of 10 salons, over 60 models and cash prizes. I usually do not attend night club fashion shows due to poor lighting and smog / smoke machines. However, this event was well prepared and it seemed as though lighting, long runway and controlled smoke machines were taken into consideration. To be honest with you I expected to deal with really poor lighting and smoke; however, to my surprise this event exceeded my expectations. I must admit that I was quite surprise at the amount of models that were participating in the Hair Wars event. When I arrived (around 9pm) I met one of my fellow photographers in the lobby and we chatted for a few minutes then I met another fellow photographer and we chatted for a few minutes as well (your starting to get the pictures). Well, after a bit of time passed by from chatting. I asked where all of the models are. I was told that the models were around the corner (down stairs). Since I had never been to this venue I was clueless where downstairs actually was. So, I waited a few more minutes, chatted a bit more then asked how do I get downstairs. Luckily Marco Foster was kind enough to escort me to the plethora of models. When I finally made it downstairs all I could say is WOW! There had to be at least 60 models broken out into 10 teams (salons). I must admit that there were several models that I had never seen before and the models that I knew I did not recognize. Recognizing models in a den of models, stylists and makeup artists is harder than you think; oh, did I mention all the models were in costume and makeup. The show started at 11pm and again I was impressed with the preparation of models. I have been to several night club fashion shows only to see models practically sprint the already way too short runway, but not this event the runway was pretty long and the models took their time on the runway (photographers like this) and put on a good show.
