Sat, Dec 6: Christmas Bazaar at Z Hairdressing
Given how late Chunjie will be this year, this is one of the longest recent winter seasons in Beijing. Holiday bazaars are a huge part of the fun, and Z Hairdressing are adding to the list, with their Christmas Bazaar. Happily coinciding with blonde live wire and Creative Director Scarlet Salmon's birthday, the bazaar will feature a soundtrack of Northern Soul courtesy of DJ Dudu, crafts, foods, and gifts on sale. Ten percent of the proceeds from the event will go to The Little Adoption Shop, who use the funds to provide shelter, food, and medical care for abused and abandoned animals in Beijing. So we encourage you to dress up, get down, and spend freely in support of a worthy cause! Free. 7-9pm. Z Hairdressing (8424 4533)
