HAIR & THERE

Last month, HJ loved popping to a range of industry events. We headed to Battersea Evolution for the L’Oréal Colour Trophy Final 2023 which you can read all about on page 26. We visited Camley Street, Natural Park, for an evening with Authentic Beauty Concept where we saw Joseph Ferraro recreate two stunning looks inspired by London Fashion Week, and we were lucky enough to be taken on a tour of Stã Studios a new co-working and multidimensional event space from Samantha Cusick!

This month HJ asked you...

DO YOU USE CHATGPT?

In light of our software feature this month, we asked our Instagram followers if they used ChatGPT to help with their salon business.

YES: 83%.  NO: 17%

HJ Collection of the Week

Each week, we feature an exclusive new collection on our online gallery (like this one from Vipul Chudasama). From stunning editorial looks and jaw-dropping commercial styles to creative cuts, colours, and creations. Head over to hji.co.uk/gallery every Friday for your weekly dose of inspiration and more.We’re always on the lookout for new collections so make sure to drop us a message if you want to see your collection featured exclusively online.

FROM THE ARCHIVES

Each month, we dig through our exclusive online gallery and pick out a style we just can’t get enough of.

For this issue, we are in awe of this clean, sharp, defined Afro textured cut by Emma Simmons at Salon 54. This statement look was captured in 2020 by photographer Tony Le Britton. Don’t forget you can see the whole collection and more here: hji.co.uk/gallery/explore
