Back up charity event supported by balmain paris hair couture

A fundraising fashion show by the Back Up charity saw teams from Headquarters in Kingston and Academy Salons in Surrey create dazzling looks using extensions from Balmain Paris Hair Couture. Hosted in the swish Sloane Suite at Peter Jones department store in London, the sell-out event combined an afternoon tea with a fashion show, with teams from both salons giving up their time and skills to ensure that all of the models' hair looked at its very best. More than £25,000 was raised for The Back Up charity, whose focus is on transforming the lives of people with spinal cord injuries. The grand finale even saw some of the charity's beneficiaries take to the red carpet to model eveningwear. Solicitor Yamsin, who suffered a spinal-cord injury in 2008 and is an ambassador for the charity, said: "When Back Up asked me to model at Front Row Fashion, I was very happy to take part. It was a fantastic event and I am still buzzing from the experience."
