BALTIMORE REPRESENT


A little behind the scenes from the Two Back Flats
 RAW Natural Born Artist Showcase prep at Fells Point Salon.


I wanna be rich and famous so all my friends will be rich and famous too. 

 

The two gypsy, pirate goddesses below are responsible for doing the best hair in Baltimore...and for teaching me all their ways from haircuts to living free. Always looking up to both of you Nina and Melanye.

The brand new Fells Point Salon location : 735 S. Ann St. Baltimore, MD 21231


 

The beautiful and talented Maureen Flynn on makeup. 


 


 WHOA. Meet Laina. I literally met this girl on the street a few weeks ago while she was wasting her sweet time as a hostess. She had a perfect victory roll, little blazer and killer heels. All I kept thinking was "this girl needs a top hat". If you build it they will come. I am so glad she didn't think I was a creep and e-mailed me back. Thank you universe. Perfection:


Another of my lady canvases for the evening the la la lovely Lauren Burton! Let's all take note that not only did L not flinch, but she sat around looking gorgeous as her entire head was covered in rows of perm rods. Thats right perm rods. #LikeABoss 




You can tell Melanye is from Baltimore with those stellar hair teasing skillz.
 

this photo melts my heart. So many of my favorite things:

 
are you freaking out about the black and white striped mini top hat too?

I wanted each of my girls for the evening to represent a little bit of Two Back Flats. A little Mad,  a little Moulin Rouge and of course a little retro! The hats and headpieces speak for themselves but I could not have pulled this off without this hair, makeup and modeling expertise! 



The darling and sensational Miss Fawn rocking my pin up look with our ever so loved pinwheel headband! Go check out this lady if you know what is good for you. She is professional and sultry and pretty damn fabulous.


 

Me sassing it up in my black top hat for the camera per usual. Plus I can never keep a straight face when Alana is around.

 



Fun fact: Two Back Flats was actually BORN about 4 houses behind where Miss Fawn is strutting.
How delightful, right?










 let us also discuss the heels these girls both whipped out of their bags like I have some sort of genie in a bottle. #soulsisters #bringmeyourmostridiculousshoes


showtime!!! 

I want to thank all of these ladies who I am blessed and honored to call friends. You will call them too if you know whats up:

Do it Baltimore! The Bellevederes and Two Back Flats Television Debut!



 Have I told you lately how much I sweat The Bellevederes? Rip roaring female leads, 60's throwbacks, hip swinging and some hair bows, bitches. Plus, I get to style their heads for all their fanciest and shmanciest events. A couple weeks ago, we rolled into the MPT studios with our vintage luggage for a Concert for the Chesapeake Bay.. in collab, of course,  with 89.7 WTMD !!! This is a new level of hipster bad assery btw.


Didnt get any backstage shots per usual cause my hands are always full of hairspray and ribbons. Oops. But you can alwayssss find me as close to front row as possible when its time to 
dance dance dance! And you can bet your ass that MPT does it right. Seeing the sound room and all the sets were as close to feeling cool as I think I've come...

The stunning and talented Denny Finnerin. #likeaboss. 


 Two hours of live local music included
The Bellevederes
Kelly Bell Band
Bobby E. Lee & the Sympathizers
plus special guest Jukebox The Ghost

Bay t-shirts are still available if you want to donate! Click the photo:
