Winter Accessories Sale Starts Friday
Tuesday, January 17th, 2012Oh, Onesta!
Wednesday, August 17th, 2011If you know me, you know that when I fall for a line of hair care products, I fall hard. And I’ve fallen hard for one, dear VAIN Blog readers.
Its name is Onesta.
Let me count the ways I love Onesta: the products are natural, color safe and free of harmful parabens and sulfates. They contain organic botanical extracts like sea kelp, green tea, sunflower and white willow bark, and they leave my hair feeling super clean and soft. Plus they smell amazing (seriously: we’re talking pure and vaguely peachy with subtle undertones of fresh citrus and what I can only describe as all-natural Tide. I am addicted to this entrancing organic aroma!). I use the Strengthening Shampoo ($12.95 at VAIN) and Daily Conditioner (ditto) topped off with a bit of the Volumizing Foam for body and shine, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. So good!
But don’t just take my word for it. Come experience Onesta for yourself! VAIN is hosting an Onesta event this Saturday, August 20 from 1-3pm at our downtown salon. We’ll have Onesta freebies, a chance to win products, and an Onesta expert onhand to answer questions about the line and recommend specific products based on your hair type.
Now, I know it might seem strange to some of you that I’m willing to share my new relationship with the world, but a love this natural and pure deserves to be shared. Treat Onesta well, Seattle. This one’s a keeper.

Big thanks to our friends at Ibuki Magazine for including VAIN on the 6%DOKIDOKI 206 itinerary. Read about all their local business stops here + check out TokyoFashion.com pictures from the 2010 6%DOKIDOKI World Tour to get an idea of what the line’s all about. We don’t mind admitting that we’re a bit obsessed.

Just a reminder that we’ve got local love + chocolate goodness happening at VAIN this Saturday, Dec 18. First, all locally-made products will be 20% off at both VAIN downtown + VAIN Ballard all day long. That means Ballard Organics Soaps, Hair Poison by Sweet Revenge hair accessories (tiny top hats will make your holiday outfit the best one at the party, btw), Theo Chocolate + more all at a great discount.
Then, and this is where this VAIN blogger needs a drool bib, the fine folks at Theo Chocolate will be onhand at VAIN downtown from 3 to 6pm for a free chocolate tasting. Candy bars, caramels + other confections, all good for the sampling before the stocking (or face) stuffing. 2 good 2 B true.
Stop by VAIN downtown at 2018 1st Ave or VAIN Ballard at 5401 Ballard Ave NW this Saturday to enjoy our local focus sale. Chocolate tasting starts at 3pm at VAIN downtown.
