EXTRA! EXTRA!
Tintura Salon was at one of the hottest Emmy events of the season. Held at an exquisite private estate in the stylish Hancock Park, Tintura made some great friends with celebrities – you’ll have to read all about it, it will be as if you were there with us.
We’ve included an excerpt and you can go to the full blog post here.… ENJOY!

I finished up the Emmys suites with a visit to Debbie Durkin’s Main Event Eco Lounge. I brought one of my assistants, Lucia, with me, and she was most impressed with the lovely relaxed vibe at this ” suite,” which was held once again on a gorgeous private estate in classy Hancock Park. It’s always the perfect one to end the pre-Emmys festivities with.
They whetted our appetites right from the start with an attractive display at the check-in table that showcased the gifts to come, including Vitaphenol skin cleanser, Tote Pets mini tote bags with adorable little 3-D animals on them, and boxed samples of Eco-Me cleaning and pet products.
Most happily for us, this was the only suite to have beauty services, which were totally welcome after the hectic week, which, for me, included flying back from New York the night before the Emmys suites began in earnest. ( I, sadly, missed a couple that had happened earlier in the week.)
Lucia and I spent time most of our time there with the stylists from the Tintura Salon, which has outposts in Claremont and Upland. The ladies were the most pleasant salon personnel ever! Tabitha and Trisha (who I now refer to as “TNT,”) flat-ironed my beginning-to-channel-Monica hair, and Susan gave us hand massages and treatments, which we really needed after gripping bags full of goodies all day!
While my hair was being worked on, I kept hearing hip music close to my head. I could not imagine from whence it came, but it turned out to be from the flat-iron!!! They were using the Hai Hot Tunes MP3 Iron that comes with a built-in MP3player! What a brilliant idea to make a somewhat annoying task (for most of us,) more pleasant! Loving it.
Tintura is HAI’s rep and they got to bestow the musical styling tool on VIP guests, complete with a little “presenting”ceremony. Of course, I took the occasion to thank the Academy. But the music started playing me off…from my own HAI Hot Tunes MP3 Iron !….. read the entire blog post here…
