WELCOME

As summer approaches and clients make plans for holidays and special events, there’s lots in our May/June issue to help you meet their needs this season, while boosting your business.

Our nail trends feature brings you the shades and techniques that look set to be hot over the next few months, while we take a look at this year’s most popular updos and how to achieve them.

We also explain how laser treatments are an ideal solution for female facial hair, while our scalp treatments feature highlights how the ‘skinification of hair’ trend has led to a growing interest in services such as scalp facials.

All this is accompanied by expert advice, business tips, product launches and some stunning hair fashion collections.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended Professional Beauty & Hair 2024 – our July/August issue will feature a comprehensive review of the event. We are delighted to announce that Professional Beauty & Hair 2025 will return to the RDS on 9-10 March. We look forward to seeing you all again for another two days of brands, education, competitions, inspiration and networking. Stay tuned to professionalbeauty.ie/show for news and updates.
