As some of you may know, charitable giving is one of the foundations of Details company culture.  Recently, our team took a couple hours out of our workday to volunteer at the Feed My Starving Children facility in Eagan.  We all had an excellent time and are excited to do it again!  So here is where our creativity comes into play...
We are seeking 70 clients or friends/family of clients to join us August 23rd from 6:00pm-7:30 at Feed My Starving Children's Eagan location to pack food for the less fortunate and save lives!  In today's economy, it is difficult to find a great return on your investments and given that, time is money... this is your most rewarding return on your time investment.  In addition to the good feelings, Details will be rewarding the top three producing tables with discounts towards your next services! (Not that additional incentives are needed!)  Sign up today to volunteer for this great cause via email info@detailsmn.com or phone 651.251.8700. 
If you are not familiar with Feed My Starving Children and the impact you can make in just an hour and a half, we invite you to visit their site.  During our two hour shift, all volunteers (52 total) packed enough food to feed 64 children for a year!  We look forward to working with you in a whole different way... INVITE YOUR FRIENDS AND SIGN UP TODAY!  Warm fuzzies guaranteed!

We had a great opportunity to have a major impact on one women's world this New Year's Eve.  Details was featured along with Picky Girl and Heimie's, on Twin Cities Live for their NYE Makeover of Amie and Ken.  It was a great experience for Brian, Brittany and Angie to have such an positive impact on someone.  Here is Amie's comments, "I made a drastic change to my hair and I love it!! Brian and Brittany did a consult together and decided on the color and cut. They both did a fantastic job!!

Our boyfriend hates getting his hair cut, so he either cuts it himself (scary) or asks us to cut it (even scarier).  Regardless, both options have the same sad outcome: hair a la Edward Scissorhands. Enter Details Style Lab, the latest Horst salon that can effortlessly glam the gals, while at the same time putting even the most manly man at ease. This sophisticated and artfully deconstructed shop is half he/she haircuttery and mens boutique. Tucked amidst the exposed brick walls, metal ductwork, and concrete floors we found contemporary orange and blue hair stations where both sexes can score fabulous cuts, colors, perms, and spa treatments, making it the perfect destination for us to indulge in say, manis and pedis, while our guy has the mess on his head straightened out. Afterward he can shop a stylish spread of designer duds, from sweaters, coats, and dress shirts to casual tees and jeans, all from spot-on lines like Vintage Red and Ted Baker. The end result? He leaves looking like a million bucks and we leave with a makeover. Aptly named, all his and hers details are masterfully covered!

DETAILS SALON SPA GIVES NEW MEANING TO THE TERM "WHITE HOT"

ST. PAUL, September 1, 2004 - Lutefisk, snow... sometimes pale in Minnesota is a good thing. But for some, summer is all about getting and keeping a healthy summer glow. Details Salon Spa now offers Summer Glow, a new treatment to help those who want to safely hold onto their summer glow long after the sun has set on summer.

Summer Glow is a two-step full-body treatment, which involves gently exfoliating the skin to remove dull skin cells, increases circulation, and relieves stress. It refines the skin; leaving it soft, smooth, and moistured. Aveda Sun Source sunless tanning lotion is then applied to produce a streak-free healthy glow. The Summer Glow service is $70 and the entire process takes about an hour.
Aveda's Sun Source is designed to help maintain a healthy bronzed look for up to a week. In addition, clients can take the remaining tanning lotion home for touch-ups.
Details Salon Spa focuses on personalized high-end salon/spa services that include: cuts, color, perms, massage therapy, facials treatments, manicures/pedicures, and waxing. Details' commitment to the environment, community, and various charitable organizations is shown through its commitment to the AVEDA Concepts and grass roots level charitable events/shows.

"The focal point is the fashion show, but the purpose of this event is to bring together talented artists with forward-thinking clothiers in the Twin Cities to produce an exciting evening to benefit our community. We are extremely fortunate to have so many top players in their respective fields on board," says Brian Horst, CFJ Chair and Owner of Details Salon Spa and co-founder of St. Paul After Hours. In addition to the fashion show, the evening begins with a 5:00 PM pre-show silent auction in the McKnight Theater.

EXTREME MAKEOVER: ST. PAUL GOES FROM "NOT HOT" TO "HOT SPOT"
Another one of Brian's many adventures From Trendsetters to Trend Seekers, Downtown St. Paul Becomes the IT GirlST. PAUL, May 6, 2004 - "Whoever said "Go West young man," has obviously not been to St. Paul lately. Once the ugly stepsister to downtown Minneapolis, downtown St. Paul has grown to be a formidable mecca for arts, entertainment, restau rants, and nightlife. And from the increase in businesses, residents, and patrons, people are taking notice. From events such as the St. Paul Winter Carnival and 2004 NHL All-Stars game to restaurants such as Fhima and Pazzaluna, St. Paul has increasingly become the hotspot for what's new, hot, and fun. And one of the forces behind this Cinderella transformation is St. Paul After Hours (SPAH).

St. Paul After Hours is a St. Paul based corporation. Founded by the beauty and brains team of Brian Horst (Details Salon Spa) and Kyle Johnson (Move Media), SPAH is a task-based organization focused on improving and enhancing downtown St. Paul's retail and service industry. By establishing a centralizedorganization for the retail and service industry, SPAH's mission is to be a source of information for both businesses and patrons in order to better serve their needs.

SPAH focuses on helping to lead the growth and development of downtown St. Paul by developing a cohesive business community, generating more revenue and exposure, and increasing the number of businesses, residents, and patrons. This mission was identified through Horst's own experience as a business owner of Details Salon in downtown St. Paul. In an attempt to be more accommodating, Horst made the decision to extend his hours of operation to meet the needs of the residents and employees of downtown St. Paul. This move received tremendous feedback from customers and the business community.

As a result, Horst formed SPAH to help other businesses also expand business hours into the evenings and weekends, and to organize a concerted group effort to promote downtown St. Paul's retail and service businesses through better communication and cooperation. As business owners and active members of the St. Paul community, Horst and Johnson have the knowledge, experience, and dedication to lead SPAH in the growth and development of downtown St. Paul. The first project is the "Awakening Project," which aims to facilitate communication between downtown businesses and residents through print, television, radio, and web advertising. A directory of downtown retail and service businesses will be published through SPAH's website and a bi-annual publication, The Downtown Story. Additional marketing communications projects include: email blasts, direct mail, and special community building events, such as the Charity Fashion Jam at the McKnight Theater and the 2005 SPAH charity calendar.

In addition, SPAH has been developed in alignment with the St. Paul Downtown Development Strategy, is a 10-year policy plan initiated at the request of the CapitolRiver Council (the official citizen participation organization and planning organization representing downtown residents, businesses and institutions), and sponsored by the Saint Paul Planning Commission. SPAH has joined forces with and has the support of a number of key organizations such as, CapitolRiver Council, Capital City Partnership, City of St. Paul and the St. Paul Chamber of Commerce.
