Last month, HJ were invited to lots of industry events we just couldn’t miss! We went to Manchester for Authentic Beauty Concept's Festivities & Future Gazing Event, went BTS on a Wella Professionals shoot for HJ’s January issue front cover (stay tuned!), and danced the night away at Remi Cachet's annual awards!
