Amoy Pitters Will Always Spot a Bad Weave

• 3/2/10 at 4:20 PM
• Comment 14Comment 14Comments

Hairstylist Amoy Pitters will probably never be a household name, unless a few million people decide they want longer, thicker, and — here’s the important part — believably good-looking weaves. Still, she’s a giant in the industry, and her work has been important to people like Donatella Versace, Iman, Naomi Cambell, Trudie Styler, etc. After the lease on Pitters’s East Village salon expired, she relocated to the Upper East Side. Between putting final touches on her new space, doing house calls for her celebrity clients, and tinkering with her new product line, Pitters took a few minutes to chat (in the presence of cameras, because she is, of course, taping a show for Oxygen).

Do you notice women with bad weaves and say to yourself, “Oh, honey. What have you done?”
All the time! I notice hair everywhere I go — shopping at the grocery store, traveling, anywhere! I am always looking up to look at everyone’s hair.

I can tell! Your eyes went straight to my hair to see what I have going on!
You noticed that! If I can’t tell a girl’s hair is extensions from far away, and I have to look closer, that’s how I know the stylist did a good job. Once I was staring at the back of a girl’s head and thinking, wow, her hair looks amazing. It turned out to be a client I’d seen earlier that day.

Explain the art of a good weave.
Well, it definitely starts with the foundation. The weave must be placed correctly. The stylist also has to do a proper consultation with the client to get the color and texture perfect. And the stylist must know how to cut extensions correctly to achieve a natural look. Also, the extensions must be 100 percent natural — preferably with the cuticle, which looks and acts more naturally.

What’s the best way to put one in? You can sew it, bond it, clip it …
Depends on the clients, but never glue a weave unless it will only be worn for a very short time before. Like, a runway model at a fashion show. I never use glue at the salon, and now with clip-on products, glue is never necessary. You can transform your look in seconds. If you want a long-term look, sewing is great.

What are some mistakes women of color make with their hair?
Over-processing! Relaxers and color are damaging to hair health; it’s even worse when the processes are done together. Also, trying to perm their hair at home can be a big mistake. Putting too much tension on the hair — tight braids, ponytails, etc. — can cause breakage. There is a misconception about shampooing: Some women believe that less shampooing will help hair growth, but it’s not true! There is no need to go over a week without shampooing.

You have a tremendous celebrity clientele — what about regular people? Can they get an appointment, or do you have a waiting list?
I kinda do have a waiting list, but I don’t want to isolate myself.

If you were stranded, what are the most essential hair products to have?
A good brush and Furterer dry shampoo.

What was the first designer item you bought?
Probably a pair of Christian Dior sunglasses. It took me about a month to save up for them

Hey Divas!

How You doing?  It has been awhile since we last talked.  Let’s review (hahahahah)

January has passed so I’m going to assume that you have already made your way to Nordstrom to get fitted for a bra!! Make sure they let you try on a t-shirt also with it!! And once you know the right inches & cup size run over to Nordies Rack, Hanes Outlet (on line), JCPenney, etc and get the bra that you can afford!! hahahah

Pillow Talk is still in (hahaha)!! Buy now you should have several silk or satin pillow cases so that your hair and face gets a spa nightly!! We want you to have smooth skin and hair!! It is all about keeping the moisture in your hair and skin!!  Cotton robs us of our natural oils in our hair and scalp.  Making our hair dry, itchy and flaky and for those with relaxers it can dry your hair out and cause breakage but  Silk or Satin will keep the oils in, keeping it moist and strong. Also remember  if you can’t get a satin or silk pillowcase, please wrap your hair up with a scarf at night.  Find a nice silk or satin scarf that will wrap around your whole head, don’t be shy. Ladies if your single “No shame in your game and if your married go for a theme” (wink, wink) when buying your scarf.

Now I have some great products for Braids, Relaxers, Texturizers etc…….. :-) 

Moraccan Oil

1. Glimmer Shine
2. Hydrating Styling cream
3. Intense Curl Cream
4. Intense Hydrating Mask
5. Moroccan Oil

Love it!!! Love it!!! Great for all!! I was at a Hair Show in CA, Long Beach and the booth was so packed I thought they where selling hair a dollar a pack! ahahahahahahahah

OK, are you listening?? Come closer!! shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Have you heard the 411 on the BB experience????

It’s called the “Brazilian Blowout”!!! Love it!! I will be posting pictures ASAP!!

André and Whoopi’s Magic Night Out

• 3/1/10 at 09:45 AM

My buddy and me!Photo: Andrew H. Walker/Getty Images

If you, like us, were wondering what was up with André Leon Talley and Whoopi Goldberg hanging out together during Fashion Week, the New York Times has your answer: They’re buddies. They met at Whoopi’s birthday party, spent Christmas together, and now talk about such things as using wolf urine to get deer away from their houses. (Incidentally, did we know that ALT lived in White Plains? “I reconcile the toxicity of the fashion world with the beauty of home,” he said to the Times.) The paper of record followed the dynamic duo out for a night as they hit up R&B club Sugar Bar for open-mike night. We’re helpfully informed that they like to go there regularly on Thursdays, not that you should stalk them or anything. And after, they went to Monkey Bar (are you keeping notes on the itinerary?), where ALT laments the lack of clapping at fashion shows: “We don’t clap because then you are showing vulnerability,” he said. We haven’t noticed a lack of clapping, though there is always that awkward moment of when the clapping has gone on too long. But we digress — who wants to go to Sugar Bar after Paris shows end?

An Open Mike for André and Whoopi [NYT]
