As probably everyone in SL already knows, Hair Fair 2008 started today at 8am SLT. I feel like I’ve been eagerly anticipating this event for a very long time. This is Kavar’s first time having an Exile booth there, and he’s been working so hard to have all 5 of his new hairs ready as well as special freebies for attendees in addition to all the other things like working with other designers on a group hair for auction, designing bandanas for the Bandana Day event, and decorating his booth. Kavar has truly outdone himself, and I hope all of you are able to go check out his booth even with the lag that I’m sure will be in all 4 sims today. He has hair for men and women, and actually one of the male hairstyles (Echo) looks really cute on me too, so you might want to check that out even if you’re not male. You can see the vendor displays for all the new hair along with links to buying the free demos from OnRez as long as OnRez continues functioning in this post at the Exile blog.

I actually haven’t been to the sims today because I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at everything last night. There was a preview pajama party for the designers and staff then, and everyone was allowed one guest. Kavar was letting me tag along with him, and then I found out I was one of the 2nd-place winners in the Hair Fair 2008 Flickr contest, so I got my own invite anyway. That was a major surprise and thrill and of course my winning photo shows off some gorgeous Exile hair as you can see in this post. You can click the little image to go directly to the Flickr page and see the details about the exact hair I used in the shot.

Kavar and I took a little over two hours to make the circuit around all the hair fair sims last night, and I had a ton of fun seeing everything. The best part was finally seeing Exile’s booth all set up in its official spot after being around as Kavar got it ready. I have a lot more to say later about Hair Fair, but right now, I just want to make sure you all check out Exile because Kavar rocks.
