VAIN Pride 2011!

Happy Pride 2011, everyone! Join us today from 4-7pm at Cal Anderson Park (between Denny & Pine, off Broadway) for the kick-off of Bend-it!, a free, queer, all-ages arts festival. We’ll have a VAIN guerilla hair crew there giving people free quickie party hairstyles to help get the weekend started. This has become an annual tradition for VAIN- we love seeing new + familiar faces of Seattle’s LGBT (+ LGBT-lovin!) community and being part of all the festivities.

See you at the park! We’ll be the ones wearing the rainbow shades.

♥,
VAIN

Don’t forget- show us your tickets for Pride Sunday’s benefit performance of Hedwig & the Angry Inch at the Crocodile (supports the It Gets Better Project!) and get 15% off your retail purchase at either VAIN salon.

Big hair rules! (Image from the VAIN Loves VERA 2011 calendar)

A big party deserves big hair: VAIN will be doing free 80s hairdos this Friday at The Stranger’s ROCK OF AGES Ragin’ Karaoke Party at The Paramount. The party is an all-80s good time to celebrate the musical ROCK OF AGES’s upcoming run at The Paramount and to support The Vera Project, Seattle’s groundbreaking all-ages music + arts venue.

The party is free and goes from 5 to 8pm. It’ll feature 80s karaoke (sing Journey! Win prizes!), drink specials and more, hosted by The Stranger’s David Schmader. Plus discounted ROCK OF AGES tickets will be on sale, with $10 from each one going to support Vera.

But back to hair. 80s HAIR, PEOPLE! A crew of VAIN superstar stylists will be onhand at the party to give free, quick, teased-out 80s hairstyles to make sure you’re ready to hit the karaoke stage in prime big hair style. We’ll also have copies of our VAIN Loves VERA music-themed 2011 calendar available (featuring the awesome big hair image above) for purchase.

Hope to see you Friday at The Paramount!

VAIN
