Jack Ray recreates “El Chupacabra” at Samuel Cole Salon
June 8-10, 2013 (RALEIGH, NC) – Samuel Cole Salon owners, Jack and Joelle Ray along with salon top stylists, Sara Beard, Carolyn Nord, Cara Harrison and Alley Biehl attended Oribe’s Backstage 2013 held in Miami. The multi-day event featured “La Fama”, an electric presentation celebrating all that is Latin.
As part of the Backstage Hands On Workshop, Beard, Nord, Harrison, Biehl and Jack Ray delved into the artistic side of things and transformed their models into “El Chupacabra”. Oribe encouraged participants to create their own interpretation of this mystical monster and name it. “It was all about hairdressers expressing themselves,” said Oribe. “I was blown away by the magic of the runway show.”
Upon their return from Miami the stylists hosted a class recreating the “La Fama” event at Samuel Cole Salon. Each Samuel Cole Salon stylist had the opportunity to interpret the inspiration and transform their models into “El Chupacabra”.
“Working with Oribe is always amazing. He is so creative, open and generous. We love having him as a mentor,” said Joelle Ray, owner of Samuel Cole Salon.

“It is one of the highest honors in our industry to be part of the Armani show and we always enjoy working with Oribe who is an industry icon,” Joelle Ray said. “At Samuel Cole, we work hard to deliver a high-level of excellence to our clients. We always appreciate when others take notice and ask us to work with them. We saw some amazing looks in Paris and look forward to incorporating them into our styles this fall.”
The Rays predict that thick, long hair will be a must-have look for the fall season after seeing Armani’s couture line and styling the models’ hair to match. Natural or with the help of extensions, long hair is a great accessory to pair with other fall favorites, such as leggings and sleek trench coats.
