Original Episode Title: #GetBlissed on Sonic Watermelons* *** Original Episode Date: Tuesday July 19, 2016 *** Name of Guest: Christine Paige, Owner Bliss Salon, Providence, RI *** Original Episode Summary: Are you part of #teamnatural or do you play for #teamrelaxed? Are those extensions or is that your real hair? Those are just some of the questions that come up when the topic of hair comes up around Black women, other women of color, and...well, a lot of folks, actually. Today on Sonic Watermelons, we'll talk about some of these issues and we'll dive deeper thanks to our special guest, Christine M. Paige, licensed cosmetologist, master stylist and owner of Bliss Salon in Providence, RI. Paige, who is an avid social media user (follow #getblissed and find her on Facebook under "Christine M. Paige" to follow her "Live" videos), has not only been sharing her skills and #blackgirlmagic through one-on-one appointments at Bliss Salon, but also through live hair demonstrations, model and runway styling, classroom teaching, mentoring girls and women, and more. TODAY on Sonic Watermelons, we'll #getblissed and talk to Paige about what it's been like to open and run a business in RI; what kinds of changes she's seen in hairstyles, styling techniques, and how we view ethnic hair and textures; and what kind of information someone getting into cosmetology and hair should know. We'll also have fun covering topics like trends and techniques to think about for late summer and fall and whatever else we want to because the world is a big place with big ideas and lots and lots of music. Tune in LIVE, Sonic Watermelons, Tuesday, July 19, 7-8 PM, bsrlive.com/live-stream. *** Contact Info for Guest(s): Bliss Salon 239 Atwells Ave. Providence, RI 02903 (401) 228-3722 www.Blisssalon555.com blisssalon239@gmail.com www.facebook.com/christinempaige *** More Info About the Guest, Topics and/or Podcast: Check out a Facebook Live video from Christine Paige, and you might think that nourishing and caring for hair is easy and something that anyone can do. But that’s not necessarily true, says Paige, especially when you’re talking about colors, chemicals, and coming back from breakage and damage. Paige should know; she’s a 15-year veteran master stylist, licensed cosmetologist, and the owner of Bliss Salon in Providence. Recently, on Thursday, September 15, Paige held a Grand Opening for the new location for Bliss Salon, which saw the business move from its (now former) Douglas Ave location to 239 Atwells Ave, still in Providence. The location might have moved, but the needs are still the same. Tune in to “Talking Hair and Getting Blissed: Christine Paige Visits Sonic Watermelons” to hear Paige discuss different topics and stories, including: 1) what it looks like running a business in RI; 2) what protective styles are and why they matter; 3) the do’s and don’ts of relaxers and weave; 4) why natural/curly hair care looks different; and 5) what the pitfalls are of doing certain styles and using certain chemicals at home. *** Audio from the podcast also comes from the Reza Rites and Sonic Watermelons archives: Remix/mash-up produced by Reza Clifton featuring the poem “Hair” written and performed by Qi Dada of the band Riders Against the Storm and and Macomé [Yoruba BPM Mix] of the compilation “ROUGH GUIDE TO URBAN LATINO.” Mic-check - “Let's Talk Hair: Meet Mary Gwann and Learn About the Bazaar Going on this Saturday” - November 17, 2005 - Reza Clifton, Mary Gwann, Jose Ramirez *** Sonic Watermelons Contact Info: www.bsrlive.com www.venussings.com Facebook: @sonicwatermelons Twitter: @WatermelonRadio Soundcloud: @sonicwatermelons iTunes: “sonic watermelons” *** Sonic Staff & Volunteers Reza Clifton Tamara Diaz Deejay Kellan Jessica LaBrie
