The End Of An Unrealistic Era
While models have continued to call out magazines for overly Photoshopping their campaigns and creating unrealistic images, magazines like Darling agree to never Photoshop their models, and now a giant retailer has taken it one step further – CVS is adding a Beauty Mark logo to their images online and in retail locations to signify that images are unaltered.

Have You Ever Thought About Competing?
As stylists, competition is around us every day as we try and see how many likes we can get on Instagram or shares on Facebook. While these are important daily tasks to keep us focused, sometimes we need more. We need something to help us realize why we got started in hair in the first place. Why we decided to pick up a comb, a brush, or our first pair of shears and create something new. This sentiment is in part why we created the Supremes Contest on Bangstyle. As an artist, there are many ways to express your talents beyond what graces your chair in the salon each day. Pushing yourself, challenging your techniques, taking inspiration and vision to reality… it’s all critical to the artist spirit. What better way to push yourself, and see what you are really made of as an artist, than competition work?
