Rock Star Toes

by Arrvada

Ok, so by now you've at least heard about these, right? We've run specials, you've gotten hints, a mere taste and it perks your interest. If it didn't we aren't doing our job. So, just what are Rock Star Toes? Well, I am glad you asked. They're the rage in So-Cal, and they are the only way to spend the summer barefoot by the pool.

Every summer we spend time at the nail shop getting pedis. We enjoy them, they are an indulgence to be sure, but once that massage is done, how long does that bright polish last? How long do your toes look pretty in those new sandles or bare toed in the pool? Two days, five, tops? Yeah, we all know how it works. If you manage to make it home from the salon with out smudging, swiping or completely anialating your polish, by the third or fourth day your shoes are already wearing it off. It's the bane of our existance, especially during this time of year when our toes spend more time peeking out of our shoes then hiding in them.

So how many times do you have budgeted to go to the salon for a pedi this season? How many times do you plan on wearing open toed shoes? Have you done the math? Not enough sessions at the salon, huh?

What are we to do? You ask (with up flung hands). And I say (with a big smile), Rock Star Toes, Baby!

Why?

Well, how'd you like to have sparkly, shiny, perfect toes all summer with minimal fuss?

Sounds good.

But, wait. there's more!

What?!

No, really! How'd you like those same lovely toes to never lose that shine, or come off for weeks?

I don't believe you!

Why not?

Well....

Well, it's time you Rocked those piggies!

Rock Star Toes are simple, easy and look fabulous. Our Stylists use either glitter acrylics or gels to create a smooth, thin over lay on your natural nail. They are durable, wear well, require only a fill every few weeks, just like your fingers and do NOT damage your natural nail. Because we use a protein primer, your nails are actually strenghtened by the process. And the very best thing; you can Rock any color, sparkle or glitter you can imagine. So what are you waiting for?

Rock those Toes, Ladies!

Art should be the expression of the human soul, like poetry brought to life. Art should be the reflection of an artists soul. It should evoke emotion, something you can feel low down in your gut. It should sneak up, gentle and poignant, or explode inside of you, passionate and vibrant. It should be bright with joy or dark and vicious, violent and raw.

One local artist comes to mind when I think of art and want to feel. I have the privileged to be surround by his creations and each day I am struck again by their power. Image Provocateur is home to the art work of Canaan Becker, an exclusive gallery to his imagination.

Canaan Becker is a local artist whose medium of choice is photo manipulation. Through the use of Photoshop, stock photos and a clear vision of his own emotions, Canaan creates unique and one of a kind Digital Art.

Each piece is like a dream, startling and filled with dark, deep colors. Each one filled with emotions, raw and visceral, brought to life. Sometimes sad and dark, brutal and vibrant, deep yearnings, longings. His pieces are often crushing with despair, dark with mystery and with secret glimmers of magic. In each one, even in the most personal and painful, there is a golden thread of triumph. The triumph of a soul finding release.

Each piece is a mirror into his soul, a flash of his dreams and emotions and each piece he is offering to share with you.

Nail Art

by Arrvada

It seems that every where you look these days there's another nail salon featuring full set of acrylics for less and less. They are in every strip mall and beside every starbucks, or so it seems. In these days when speed is the need these seem like the place to go to get your nails done. It's true they are quick but what you make up for in time you lose in quality. Of course that's not to say you will not get a good set of nails, its just making the simple observations of the differences between a 'chop shop' and true 'nail art'. Nail Art is when your nails are created to suit you, your individual style and needs. Nail Art is when every nail is sculpted to the length and shape you need with additions of sparkle and mylar, with tattoos and gems to make your nails not just a pretty tip to your fingers but true works of art that express your own unique style. At Image Provocateur our Nail technicians are not simply those who can slap on a tip and some pretty colors, we feature only true Nail Artists, those who have a passion for the art, for creating a unique and fabulous set of nails for each and everyone of their clients. From sculpted Acrylics and Gels, to our amazing Rock Star Toes, Image Provocateur is the place to Express Yourself!
