February 23, 2009 (RALEIGH, NC) —  Lather Hair Salon in North Raleigh has contracted blueplate pr, a boutique public relations agency located in downtown Raleigh, for public relations services.

Lather Hair Salon, owned and operated by Jessica Williams, is a full-service salon located at 8521 Cantilever Road near the corner of Glenwood Avenue and Ebenezer Church Road. Williams opened the salon in October of 2008. She and her team of stylists combine expertise in all aspects of hair care, cutting, styling and make-up application, including on-location services. Stylist Alissa Phillips’ bridal hair and make-up designs are featured frequently on the http://www.theknot.com, a premiere wedding planning website.

blueplate pr is owned and operated by award-winning journalist Kim Weiss, who specializes in message development, media relations, online presence and website text development. Intentionally small, blueplate pr also provides personal attention to each client.

“I’m delighted to be working with Jessica and the entire staff at Lather,” said Weiss, whose experience in the hair care industry includes years of working with Samuel Cole Salon and Salon Moxie, also in Raleigh. “They’re a very upbeat, positive and extremely talented team. And as a graduate in public relations before she became a stylist, Jessica fully recognizes the value of a communications campaign, which is not only useful but absolutely essential during economic downturns. I’m honored that she’s trusting blueplate pr to get the buzz going about this very cool, very modern salon.”
