Ewire -- Salon City, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SALN), an emerging media
company, lifestyle brand and publisher of its flagship publication
Salon City magazine, was on hand to report Kris Allen's big upset
win over Adam Lambert in "American Idol's" finale Wednesday night.
Legends and stars such as Rod Stewart, Lionel Ritchie, Fergie and
the Black Eyed Peas, Queen, KISS, Queen Latifah, Carlos Santana,
Keith Urban, Steve Martin, Cyndi Lauper and more shared the stage
with Idol's top finalists.
Instead of a competition, however, Salon City's editors and
independent salon network saw opportunity. Salon City's HOT 100
Salons in America -- top media-savvy salons in the country --
commented that while clients liked the iconic musical performances,
they were most impressed with Kris Allen's 'Heartfelt' and Adam
Lambert's 'Glam Rock' personas. In Adam's case, there's already
been a surge in demand for the 'Glambert Look' -- black eyeliner,
black mascara and black nail polish -- in salons and stores around
the country.
Steven Casciola, Salon City magazine's co-founder and editor in
chief, commented, "Kris's softer approach, and the 'Heartfelt'
image that comes with it, will start to show up as a natural
counterbalance to Adam's visually striking 'Glam Rock' image. Each
look has its own unique strengths and a buying audience to go with
it. I think their strongest effectiveness comes when they work
together in branding a product, like they did in the Ford
commercials Wednesday night. Their combined 'branding chemistry'
when they appeared together in the ad created an appealing,
All-Global Image that energizes and personifies the New American
Lifestyle. By sharing their music and beauty entertainment talent
and values, they synergized their power and effectiveness. They
offer a powerful hint to marketers of how to sell in the New
Economy and how companies can benefit from a 'unity in diversity'
message that combines apparent opposites."
Annie Casciola, Salon City co-founder and creative editor,
remarked on last night's Idol extravaganza, "Music and beauty share
a special bond when it comes to entertainment and shows. Last night
we witnessed its awesome power."
Salon City magazine's contributing beauty experts had this to
say about Adam's trend-setting 'Glam Rock' stage persona:
