Redskins Cheerleaders Photo Shoot in Florida
Hi everyone from sunny Florida! Our team arrived this past Tuesday for the 2009-2010 Redskins Cheerleaders Calendar shoot! After arriving in the afternoon the hair and make up team met to discuss each girl’s look and get all of our equipment set for the next day.
Make sure to check our Flickr photostream every day for more pictures!

Then it was up at 4am to begin hair and make up for team captains Abby, Heather, Kelly and Jamilla. Abby and Heather did their shoots by the fountain while Kelly and Jamilla were on the beach. Jamilla had an amazing shoot done in bodypaint that took 3 hours to apply! Then we did a group captain shot and wrapped up at 9am.

We were back in action at 4pm to get Jaqui, Sarita, Dawn and Melanie J. ready for their shoots. Jaqui and Dawn shot on the beach, Melanie in the water and Sarita was shot in a jersey created with bodypaint. The second shoot wrapped at 8pm, then dinner and a team meeting at 10pm. What a long but incredible day!
Tomorrow we are off to the everglades!

RA Cares: Ronald McDonald House Event
On May 6th, Robert Andrew visited the Ronald McDonald House to give free makeovers for the staff and mothers. These ladies have dedicated so much to their sick children and truly need and deserve this special treat. RA did hair, nails and skin treatments and brought gifts for the kids to give their moms for Mother’s Day. This event was in conjunction with RA Cares – the charity foundation that Robert Andrew created to benefit local charities.

RA Cares about Teen Suicide
RA Cares is a program dedicated to serving the community. Each month we focus on a charity, person, or cause that could use our help.
During June we are focusing our efforts on Teen Suicide, by hosting a Cut-a-Thon to raise awareness and money for the Morgan Beverly Foundation. Morgan Beverly was a local teen that took her life about 3 months ago; she attended both Broadneck and Severna Park High School.
The Cut-a-Thon will be at the i Salon Friday, June 19th from 5-9pm. It is only $20 for a 30 min. haircut! Call i Salon today to book your appointment.
