Bio
Speciality: Editor, Writer, Photographer, ex-Creative Director, ex PR Director, Website Archives

Present - US Correspondent, also covering Canada,
PELUQUERIAS Magazine, published in Barcelona, Spain and circulation in 63 countries and www.helenoppenheim.com (Hair Fashion Photo Archives)

Background includes:
From London, England, lived in Montreal, Canada, before coming to New York City, all major influences on my career as:
PR, The John Sahag Workshop (launched in 1985/6, then "Ambassadress" including PR, 1994-1997... Public Relations and Creative Director, Vidal Sassoon Salons USA/Canada (2 years, 1979-1981)…Public Relations and Creative Director La Coupe Salons, Montréal, Toronto, New York (14 years on and off, launched, then during most of the 70s...85/86...91/93)… And much more…

Over 2,000 photos from the '60s to the Present, can now be seen with some great text under each photo, on my website, a Work in Progress. It will probably take forever. Stay tuned ...

You can see my own photography on Hairbrained, taken backstage during NY Fashion Weeks. Best viewed in my Albums, which have comments under most photos. My NY Fashion Week photos appear earlier in my Peluquerias columns, in the September and January issues, sometimes also in February and November issues.

Other months, I publish great hair shots in Peluquerias, by anyone who creates interesting/amazing photos of good quality. It could be you....

"Good idea.  And there are also a lot of very famous hairdressers - from other countries - who do amazing work, no one knows of in this country or on Hairbrained.   "
