If beauty, poise and fashion were a song, Bruce Slemmer would be the beat. Come enjoy an experience created for the true Philadelphia sophisticate where transformations happen every day! Bruce Slemmer strands hair salon "Once we got past his laborious technique (he folded 122 foils on our shoulder length hair), we realized Slemmer was a mad genius. He prescribed two shades of lowlights in the back, gold at the crown, and baby blonde on our bangs "to bring out those baby blues". A toner application felt more like a scalp massage, and Slemmer said he rinses (never shampoos)the toner, "so the color will last longer". Our hair had a champagne sheen for months-proving there's a method to his madness. Highlights, $100 and up. -Allure Magazine
