The feature spread "
Easter Bonnets" appeared in the New York Times Style Section of their 2/19/12 Sunday full color glossy gorgeous magazine! Written by Sandra Ballentine, the article features full page photos of models with pastel hair color styled by celebrity stylist
Orlando Pita. Sandra writes: "Sick of fluorescent tips, dips, tie-dye and highlights, we turned to
Orlando Pita and the color team from Orlo, his Manhattan salon, to take
the radical color trend to the next level. His mandate: soft, allover
pastels that would coordinate with the palest confections from the
spring collections. It had to be radical yet refined, cool but chic."
The hair color:
Manic Panic, of course! To quote Orlando: "First, the girls’ hair had to be taken to its lightest hue, and then
color (from
Manic Panic) added and adjusted. Pita’s shade secret? “
Manic
Panic colors start out quite bright, so we tweaked them with different
percentages of black and white,” he says. The girls were a bit skittish
at first, but by the end they loved their new locks and were reluctant
to go back to their old colors — Tine Furre kept her candy-floss pink
tresses for a week, years in model time."
The hair is classy and beautiful! Can you guess what
Manic Panic colors Orlando used? If you guessed
Lie Locks™,
Electric Banana®,
Cotton™ Candy Pink +
Virgin Snow™, and
Bad Boy™ Blue - congratulations, you know your
Manic Panic.
