August 15, 2009 (RALEIGH, NC) – Stylists from Samuel Cole Salon and Salon Moxie designed hair for the nominees and presenters at The 2nd Annual Carolina Music Awards held at the Progress Energy Building in downtown Raleigh.  The awards showcase the hottest music/artists in the Carolinas (North & South) in most genres.  The objective of this event is the development of the music industry in the Carolinas, encouraging growth in our music present and future.  This show is the only awards show that donates part of its proceeds to music programs for children.  The stylists created “red carpet” sleek and sexy hair for the night.

“Our salons are always ready to get involved in the arts in our area in any way that we can.  We live in such a growing area where much is happening on the music scene.  This awards show is bound to grow every year.  We were excited to be a part of it and look forward to participating next year.  Our teams did a phenomenal job on the hair designs”, said Jack Ray, Master Stylist and Director of Education, who owns both salons with his wife, Joelle Ray.

The award-winning Samuel Cole Salon located on Newton Road in North Raleigh is an exclusive Bumble & bumble network salon.  The salon has been featured nationally in Salon Today, American Salon and Metro Magazine, as well as internationally in Estetica (Italy) and StyleSpeak (India).  Salon Moxie is Samuel Cole Salon’s counterpart and carries Bumble and bumble and Aveda products.  It is located on Falls of the Neuse Road in the North Ridge Shopping Center.
