Izabela Izycka’s modeling career began 5 years ago with a chance encounter while walking on the beach, leading to her getting discovered and being catapulted into the world of fashion. Since then, she’s graced the cover of Influent and the pages of Maxim, while also working with top brands including Dust of Gods, Skims, Boutine LA, Ignite, Frankie’s Bikinis, Intimissimi, and so many more. Besides appearing in magazines and fashion campaigns, Izabela also starred in music videos for DJ Alok and Snoop Dogg, which together have over 11 million views. 

After being born in Poland and later moving to Los Angeles, it’s safe to say that globetrotting has been Izabela’s game. From the stunning island of Capri to the chic streets of Geneva, modeling has taken Izabela all over the world. Despite having a hectic travel schedule, Izabela still manages to stick to a daily routine which includes working out and interviewing for Software Sales positions, which is something Izabela has been pursuing since receiving her degree in Computer Programming. Izabela stresses how important it is to stay organized while also making sure to not overwhelm yourself. When it’s time to unwind, you can find Izabela reading or watching 90s movies.

Meeting new people is one of Izabela’s favorite things about modeling, however she admits to being an introvert. When she first got started in the modeling industry, she did not know how to express herself and later learned how to use her voice and not let criticism affect her, reminding herself that at most times it’s nothing personal. Izabela’s resilience is one of her favorite things about herself, along with her sense of humor.

When asked if she has any pre-photoshoot rituals, Izabela said she always drinks coffee and stretches. She also shared her favorite beauty hack that she learned on set, which is to put ice cubes on your face before applying makeup. Speaking of makeup, the one product she can’t live without is mascara. If you follow Izabela, you’ve seen her effortless 90s supermodel off-duty style, making it no surprise that 2 of her biggest inspirations are Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington. Being in comfortable clothes is what makes Izabela feel the most confident. 

Even though Izabela has already accomplished so much, in 5 years she hopes to own a tech company while continuing to model and work with humanitarian organizations. For aspiring models, Izabela emphasizes how important it is to use your voice and always stick up for yourself and your boundaries, as all models, even those just starting out, deserve to be treated kindly.

Every head of hair has a story. It holds a dialogue of individuality, personal history, and a unique sense of style. As one of the industry’s most innovative hairstylists, Jason Tavares has masterfully unlocked these narratives, setting a revolutionary trend in the beauty industry with his personalized haircare approach.

“Hair is a personal signature,” says Jason. “It should speak a unique, beautiful story, not a rehearsed version of another.”

Born out of this belief, Jason’s customized haircare approach isn’t a one-size-fits-all philosophy. Instead, he takes into account the unique preferences, lifestyles, and hair types of each of his clients to create a look that is truly their own. “Understanding a person’s lifestyle, their habits, their work and leisure activities, is just as important as understanding their hair type,” Tavares explains. “It’s about a holistic approach to haircare, one that considers all aspects of the person.”

For Jason, this personalized approach doesn’t end with the cut and style. He extends it to his curated range of hair products and routines. Each recommendation he makes is tailored to the client, empowering them to embrace and celebrate their natural beauty. “It’s not about altering who you are to fit a style, but about finding the style that fits who you are,” he says.

This ethos of individuality has allowed Jason to challenge and redefine traditional beauty standards in the hair industry, fostering a sense of inclusivity and diversity. “Hair is not about fitting into a box,” Tavares insists. “It’s about celebrating what makes us unique, our individual textures, lengths, and colors.”

To understand Jason’s innovative approach to haircare, one must understand the man behind the vision. A master craftsman with a soul of an artist, Tavares started his haircare journey armed with an insatiable curiosity, a deep appreciation for beauty, and a drive to empower individuals through hair.

His upcoming BCavi serum release is a celebration of this philosophy. With its unique formula designed to stop hair breakage and provide moisture, the BCavi serum is not just another product on the market. It’s a testament to Tavares’ lifelong commitment to personalized, empowering haircare. Launching online for preorders on August 14th, the serum is Jason Tavares’ call to action and an invitation to celebrate all hair types and textures.

“What I want to achieve with BCavi is to extend that salon chair experience,” he says. “It’s about giving everyone the tools and the confidence to celebrate their hair stories at home.”

Jason Tavares’ contribution to the beauty and hair industry is undeniable. But his most significant accomplishment? A sweeping movement that has redefined beauty standards, one head of hair at a time. A philosophy that looks beyond the mirror, empowering clients to find their unique voice in their locks.

“If you’re doing hair right,” Jason states, “It’s not just about looking good. It’s about feeling incredible.”

And as we wait for the release of BCavi, we can all take a leaf out of Tavares’ book. It’s time to celebrate our unique hair stories, embrace our natural beauty, and redefine what it means to have fabulous hair. After all, as Jason Tavares himself would say: “Your hair, your story.”
