Jane Dixon – a hairstylist (Interview - Audio ЕГЭ 2014)

ФИПИ

Interviewer: You might not know her by name but chances are you have seen her work especially if you look through glossy magazines or watch MTV at least some times. Jane Dixon is a celebrity hairstylist who has worked on some of the biggest names in show business. Hello, Jane!

Jane Dixon: Hello!

Interviewer: Jane, are you proud of working with the stars?

Jane Dixon: Who wouldn’t? My top list includes Whitney Huston, Regina King, and others. My work has also appeared in Vogue, People and so on. Whitney is my favorite client. And I’m pleased to know that I prepared her for her most successful comebacks on the stage. The fact is I am ambitious and have so many plans ahead.

Interviewer: That sounds pretty impressive. How long have you been working in the hair fashion industry?

Jane Dixon: I am a ten year veteran of the beauty industry and believe me it’s glamorous and hard at the same time. My job is a lot like a psychologist’s job. A perfect hairstyle gives a client a sense of balance they desperately need. If you change your hairstyle, you change your life. I also must provide some longevity for this new transformation.

Interviewer: What’s your average day like?

Jane Dixon: I teach a lot. I love to mentor young professionals as a beauty educator teaching across the country. In addition, I’m a passionate advocate for women’s welfare working with various nonprofit organizations. So, it’s not the limelight all the time. In fact I'd love some more of it.

Interviewer: What’s the most rewarding part of your celebrity hairstylist career?

Jane Dixon: The most rewarding part about being a celebrity stylist is bringing out their inner beauty, transforming attitudes and looks. It’s a blessing being able to travel the world and live out my passion. Plus, you’ve got to stay on top of all the latest trends.

Interviewer: I’m sure our listeners would like a piece of advice from you. What styles are in fashion this year?

Jane Dixon: Fall is upon us and cool natural colors like various auburns, ambers, and chocolate browns are always nice for the winter and long full-body curls are a great textured look. Styles with flare and color are show suppers and a great look for the holidays.

Interviewer: One more point. Sometimes women look through hair magazines and want to achieve a certain look that a celebrity has but finds it’s hard to do without extensions. Can you explain why extensions are such a huge part of celebrity looks?

Jane Dixon: Extensions accentuate the style giving it the fullness or extra length necessary to create the desired look. So celebrities use extensions for the same reasons any woman out there might.

Interviewer: All right. As far as taking care of hair what are some simple things anyone can do to pamper her hair on a daily basis?

Jane Dixon: I would recommend brushing her hair daily, buying a good daily shampoo and using a silk scarf at bedtime to keep her hair smooth and silky. It refers to both men and women basically. You also shouldn’t expose your hair to rain or snow.

Interviewer: OK. The pro has spoken. Thanks so much, Jane!

Jane Dixon: My pleasure.
