The workshops which were aimed at building the hair and beauty trade
in the region and promoting hair dressers and beauticians of the area in
which they were held created a lot of hype and interest amongst
participants.
Amongst the highlights of the workshops was the makeover of K. Sumali
from Balangoda and Sachithra Harshani from Kuliyapitiya who participated
in the workshops.
Makeovers were done by H.U.P Jayalath and J.H.M Shiromini Bandara at
the Balangoda and Kuliyapitiya workshops comprising of western hairdos
with hints on maintenance, make-up, accessories and clothing tips.
Speaking of the hairstyle creation on Sumali, Hairdresser, Jayalath,
stated,"I chose Sumali as a model who possessed charm and natural
beauty.
As the Sunsilk hadakari workshops are all about creating a good image
that needs to be complimented with a good hair style. Since Sumali had
short curly hair it was best to go for a slightly high western hair do
which complimented her overall look.
She looked beautiful and stood apart from the rest of the
contestants. The winning model Sumali, a science student from Palmadulle
was very happy to have taken part in the hair show as an amateur model.
"It was an unforgettable experience for me, as I saw a difference in
my appearance, which for me was unbelievable", she said.
Sachithra Harshini an A/L student from Polgahawela stated it was the
first time she had ever participated at such an event.
The Sunsilk Hadakari workshops is an exercise that is also aimed at
building public awareness on the need for proper grooming and hair care
