Salon India brings to you yet another exciting issue.
From a cover story on hair colour predominating the
Indian scene to exhaustive interviews with the LA-based
hairstylist extraordinaire Lorenzo Martin and the beautiful
make-up artist Pati Dubroff, there are enviable and
awe-inspiring Glamour pages that you would like to
replicate. Agnes Chen, the owner and hairstylist at
Pappion Salon & Wellness and Buttery Pond
in Mumbai and also a technical consultant with
Streax Pro - shares her journey. As the season brings
forth several skin-related worries, salons and spas have
come up with special monsoon packages for their clients.
Do take a look...
In Brand Focus, we have Vineet Kapoor of O3+, the skin
care brand, and Shahnaz Husain, the queen of herbal
formulations, who give you a peek into their business
strategies and more.
In Visual Dynamics, the Banyan Tree Spa in Singapore
will take your breath away. Created by the Group’s design
arm, Architrave, the place truly has exemplary asthetics
which work to make it a restive abode for the weary soul.
This month’s Success Story is on Rahul Bhalchandra,
owner of R&R Salons and the chain of salons called
You Look Good! (YLG) in Bengaluru and Pune. The young
entrepreneur has changed the game by involving private
equity players in the beauty and wellness business.
His pearls of wisdom are really commendable.
If you want your clients to return to your salon or spa
again and again, Julie Eldrett and Rod Anker, both, throw
light on two critical aspects – listening to your client is
important, as is caring for the equipment and tools in
your salon. So take heed of this invaluable advice and
mark your progress!
All this apart from the regular sections like new stores
and salons launched, the latest trends in hairstyles and
make-up, and more in this issue.

Cover Story The dynamism of the hair colour market in India, its growth
by Vandana Thakur
Substantiated by critical
factors like product
differentiation, brand
positioning, growing
consumer interest and
competition generated
by low-priced products, in
2010, the hair care market stood at about C11,755
crore. Such has been its
ascent that by 2013, it’s
anticipated to grow at a
CAGR of 20 per cent as per
reports from RNCOS, a
research and consultancy
firm. Brimming with
opportunities and a seemingly bright future, Salon
India gets an insight into
the hair colour business
and the key players in the industry

The awe-inspiring looks of the Bollywood divas on the
green carpet of IIFA’12 got many thumbs ups
Indo-western fusion at the IIFA
by Isha Gakhar
The International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) ‘12 was truly
an artists’ inspiration. The gala ceremony embraced the beauties in
wearable hair and make-up looks, which can comfortably settle in
your beauty wardrobe this season

One-sided plaits were a popular choice amongst the actresses,
such as Dia Mirza, Chitrangada Singh, Kalki Koechlin and Aditi
Rao Hydari. Sighted was a variation — from sh to loosely braided
plaits. Bracing the retro look was Sameera Reddy — her nger
waves, paired with black smokey eyes and pink glossy lips made
her stand out. Nargis Fakhri gave an edge to contemporary Indian
attire, with a quiff at the top and a bright glossy mouth.
On the other end of the spectrum, spotted with bold lips and solid
colours were Vidya Balan and Gauhar Khan.
Back to basics were big bouncy curls worn by Sonakshi Sinha,
Bipasha Basu and Preity Zinta.
Can an evening be complete without Neha Dupia, who came in
a messy chignon, combined with heavy smokey eyes, rosy cheeks
and nude lips.
INTERVIEW
Lorenzo Martin
Ambitious plans
by Isha Gakhar
A
Lorenzo Martin
California native,
Lorenzo Martin, has been
passionate about hair since
the beginning. His career took
off in Napa Valley and soon he
made a name for himself. He
moved to LA in 2002, and from
then on, he has only grown
in stature. Known for styling sexy, beautiful hair, Martin
has worked with Catherine
Zeta-Jones, Radha Mitchell,
Heather Locklear, Sophia Bush,
Julia Ormond, Kelly Clarkson,
Anastacia and Felicity Huffman.
A master at styling, he has
worked with numerous fashion
photographers and brands.
Your big break (s)?
Moving to LA and getting
my rst job at a high-prole
salon, signing with an
agency and getting my
rst celebrity client.
Stumbling blocks?
Journeys have their
challenges. I believed
in myself and have
made it through some
huge obstacles.
Lorenzo Martin is
Jennifer Lopez’s
ofcial stylist and
prefers to use
L’Oréal Paris
products
Staying on top?
I’m always thumbing through
old magazines, photographs
and like to watch old movies,
too. I’m even inspired by art.
Inspiration is all around us,
only if we care to look.
Unique selling point?
The opportunities I’ve had to
travel around the world have
allowed me to see how different cultures live, dress and
style themselves. From Paris
to Brazil and America, I found
huge diversities. I take those
thoughts and incorporate
them into whatever is suitable
for each client.
Current trend and style?
Long layers and naturallooking colour that’s never
overdone.
Can’t do without?
L’Oréal Paris EverStyle Volume
Boosting Mousse, L’Oréal
Paris EverSleek Intense
Smoothing Shampoo and
Conditioner and L’Oréal Paris
Elnett Satin Hairspray.
You look up to?
Vidal Sassoon and Jose Eber.
Celebrity styling?
Celebrities are no doubt
under a lot of pressure! Of
course, you want to satisfy
and produce a fabulous
outcome for every client,
but the pressure is much
higher with celebrities who
are always under the spotlight
with the media and public.
While styling their hair,
I always take into consider-
ation the venue and event.
Knowing what the celebrity
is wearing and the type of
look they are going for to
suit that image.
Advice to aspirants?
If a person has the passion
for this business, they will
nd success. I believe
determination and dedication
are key. Go the distance
with the will to push on
and work HARD!
What technologies do
hairdressers look out for?
Anything that makes styling
easier and hair look better.
New and improved hair
dryers, curling or at irons
that are gentle on the hair
when used frequently.
Future plans?
To continue doing what I love
by making every client look
and feel gorgeous.
Plans of an academy or hair
care line?
A BIG YES! I want it all. I would
love to develop a product
line, hair extensions and styling
tools. And open an academy
where my focus would be
to educate and inspire by
teaching students to transform
their clients with the most
incredible looks possible.

GUEST STYLIST
CREATE THAT LOOK
Here comes the bride...
In a step-by-step format, make-up artist
Victoria Lee, using a comprehensive
range of make-up products from Kryolan,
displays techniques to make a bride
look pretty
The process
Step 1: Prepare the skin with
the CTM method. Clean the
face with Kryolan’s Cleansing
Cream, tone with a relaxing
tonic to minimise the pores and
moisturise the skin.
Step 2: Apply the ultra under
base, which is a water-based
moisturiser and primer that
hydrates the skin and allows the
foundation to last for long.
Step 3: For the base, use
Kryolan’s High Denition
Foundation. Conceal the dark
areas of the face with the Micro
Foundation Cache.
Step 4: For an even nish,
use the Micro Foundation
Smoothing Fluid.
Step 5: Dab Micro Silk Powder
all over the face so that it sets
the base well.
Step 6: To sculpt the face, use
TV Brown to contour the cheek
bone, jaw line and the nose.
Step 7: For blush, use a
combination of two shades
Light Red and TC1. For
highlighting, apply the Glamour
Glow - Natural Tan to highlight
the apple of the cheek and the
T-Zone.
Step 8: Use Kryolan’s Variety
eyeshadow compact –
Interferenz. On a bride, apply
gold and light beige shades
all over the eyelid. Mix Sudan,
a matte brown shade with a
black eyeshadow and apply
on the socket of the eye to
dene the shape. Over the
crease line, apply magenta
eyeshadow. Apply the amber
shade, a Living Colors pigment
from the High Denition range
as a highlight on the brow bone
FASHION
Nida Mahmood
The pop art princess
by Shikha Swaroop
Be it an open
expression of creativity
or the finesse of silhouettes, Nida Mahmood
has mastered it all.
In a tête-à-tête with
Salon India, the
designer shares the
role of hair and
make-up in her
collections
Importance of hair and make-up
in fashion weeks.
Hair and make-up play a vital
role! They help netune the look
and concept being displayed in
a collection. The visual support
system is critical.
Your role in planning the look?
In my shows, I am the director.
When a designer is working
on a concept, be it accessories,
hair and make-up or even
stage drama, every little detail
plays a big role. The idea is
to enhance the collection and
make an impact.
Your inspiration behind the A/W
2012 collection.
It was inspired by colourful
Indian folk music, dance and
theatre, borrowing, especially,
elements from the puppet
theatre of Rajasthan. The
collection was based on the
concept of perception, which
is interpreted on print, while
embroidery inspired from the
ink blot test. I am inspired
by objects and situations, as
opposed to people.
Colour, cut, or innovation –
what is your focus?
Matting was created in this
collection. We have graphed a
fabric, printed on it, woven and
graphed again. After all this,
they are cut and made into
garments. The colours are
bright and vibrant fuschia,
lime green, indigo, tangerine,
emerald and aubergine.
How has make-up revolutionised
fashion?
In fashion, there is room for
experimentation. For show
make-up, one can explore
endlessly with unusual looks.
It helps to depict a concept
in visual manner and support
the ner nuances in a
specialised manner.
Fashion faux pas.
Wearing garments two sizes
small to look slim, which
eventually looks ghastly!
Any plans of launching a perfume
line or make-up?
Haven’t thought about it.
How do you see the fashion
and make-up industry growing?
Fashion and make-up
industries go hand in hand,
so I see the growth of both.
