cuteisawayoflife[At first, it's difficult to see what's going on. The video feed that flips on shows a manicured hand with short, tidy nails and the camera angle is moving. At last, the camera stops moving around and Quinn can be seen. Bulla's voice is in the background.]
Okay, I think I've got it.
[The sound of footsteps can be heard as Bulla moves to join her friend.]
[Quinn smiles brightly for the camera, very much in her element. She's so excited she could explode (except not literally because ewwww)]
Hello, Luceti! This is Quinn Morgendorffer and Bulla Brief, and do we have an exciting offer for you!
[Bulla's quite excited as well. They'd been planning this for a while and now they're ready to unveil Fashion Club to the general public of Luceti. Of course, this had involved dressing their best. They could hardly promote Fashion Club without looking fashionable themselves, after all.]
We are proud to present Fashion Club. Do you enjoy dressing your best? Are you looking for some fashion tips? Fashion Club is here for you!
We'll tell you what's hot and what's not, the right colors for your skin tone, the best hairstyles, and of course, the art of accessorizing! And what's more, if you're just as interested in helping the fashion-challenged as we are, we have plenty of openings!
[She's not going to insist on rigid auditions and rules the way Sandi did. As long as someone has a basic sense of style and plenty of enthusiasm, they're fine in her book.]
Aside from giving the fashionably-inclined a place to meet and socialize, Fashion Club will also be offering free advice and makeovers. If you have a special occasion, like a formal event or a date coming up, come to us! We'll make sure you look your absolute best.
[Which is part of why Bulla's glad she talked to her mother about having meetings at the salon. Then they've got the equipment there for the works.]
So come join us at the Pearl Eden salon today!

Date: 2013-05-30 02:09 am (UTC)[Bulla returns from a supply run and she's glad that she had time to see Effie's hair before approaching. That's number one on Bulla's mental list of things to make over. Colour preferences are easily accommodated.]
Let's start with a shampoo and blow dry, shall we? Maybe a nice, soothing face mask, too.

It's lovely, really.

Date: 2013-05-31 10:12 am (UTC)[The only thing she can say that's good about having a limited wardrobe is that she's learning to be more choosy and to pick out items that will match with multiple things so that she can mix and match more. Of course, just about anything is limited when one's walk-in closet is larger than some people's bedrooms.
She begins to run the water, testing it with her hand to make sure it's warm enough to be comfortable before taking the shampoo and facial masks.]
Would you prefer an exfoliating or moisturizing mask?

And yes -- skin treatments were simply a social must in the Capitol. Part of one's routine, as much as one could work it in.

Date: 2013-06-04 03:12 am (UTC)[She'll handle that and the hairwashing, and then she'll let Quinn take over for blowdrying and hair styling. Bulla experiments more with fashion than she does with her hair, so Quinn is probably the better choice for styling hair. She will, however, offer suggestions.]
Quinn, maybe you can think of a few hairstyle suggestions that might work?
[Something that's not quite so...big.]

Date: 2013-06-11 01:48 am (UTC)Those all sound lovely for hair styles, but I do want to look stunning.
[Because in Panem, weird + stunning = power + beauty.]

Date: 2013-06-11 02:55 am (UTC)[action] Sorry for the delay!
Date: 2013-06-16 09:25 pm (UTC)That would look really nice, and it's something you could go with a slightly more casual look - like, business casual, or you could go all out and glam it up.
sokay!
Date: 2013-06-17 01:08 am (UTC)[Because finally there's girls here who ACT like ladies, and that's refreshing!]

Date: 2013-06-19 01:07 am (UTC)Once that's done, she wraps Effie's hair up in a towel to keep it out of the way of the two masks. She's not entirely sure how she should apply both - whether she should mix the two together like blending paint, or if she should apply one over the other, or one after the other. This is the first time she's ever been asked for both.
Eventually, she settles on blending the mixtures into what she hopes will be both a moisturizing and exfoliating experience.]

Date: 2013-06-19 01:47 am (UTC)[This is spoken from beneath the neatly-secured towel -- rather stiffly through the masks. It's hard to move your mouth with those products on your face.]
The shampooing, I mean. I suppose the two of you intend to remain in business here for as long as possible.
