THE HAIRDRESSERS WHO BROKE UP WITH THEIR CLIENTS

HAIR & THERE

Last month, HJ were invited to lots of industry events! We jetted off to Sweden with SACHAJUAN for the brand’s 20th anniversary. We flew to Dubrovnik, Croatia with Keune for a weekend of networking and inspiration. Plus, we travelled to Frankfurt with Paul Mitchell to see what the brand has coming up for 2025! We had front row seats at the Goldwell Summer Party, we were invited to the National Television Awards with Nicky Clarke, and of course, we were at Epsom Downs Racecourse for the second round judging of the British Hairdressing Awards 2024, sponsored by Schwarzkopf Professional. Speaking of, if you haven’t got your tickets for #BHA24, get them now!

This month HJ asked you...

DO YOU HAVE A CO-WORKING SALON SPACE NEAR YOU? As co-working salons and multi-functional studio spaces continue to rise, we asked our Instagram followers if you have a co-working salon space near you.

YES: 44%.    NO: 56%
