We headed to Pro Hair Live Manchester earlier this month on a scouting mission! We are proud to be at the next ProHairLive event which will be in London for the first time next month so we wanted to head up north to touch base with some of our fellow exhibitors and check out the amazing free seminars as Inanch herself will be on the Bridal & Creative Zone stage during the exhibition so it’s your chance to get top tips for red carpet hair.

It was a great chance to catch up with some industry friends and stopped by the Glenn Lyons seminar at the Business Zone to hear him talking about the basic principles of trichology and the connection with hairdressing which was brilliant. We couldn’t miss a stint on the Bridal Stage when the lovely Paul Falltrick was talking bridal, hair extensions & updo’s to give us some great hair inspiration and presentation pointers!

It’s always great to get tapped on the shoulder by your peers to have a natter and answer your questions about our new Gold Class brand. Lovely to see you all and make sure you come and see us on Stand D6 – tickets are on sale now and add a diary note to head to the Bridal Stage on Sunday at 12pm as we show you how to transform three models & maybe a celeb or two!

Highlight of the day had to be Roberto & Inanch spotting our Professional Hairdresser Mag Front Cover with Mischa Barton from November last year – it was huge and we couldn’t miss a selfie opportunity!

The journey home wasn’t bad too as we got an email to confirm we are FINALIST for this year’s Hair Awards with our Clip In extensions!!

Last month flew by for us and we were lucky enough to spend a week state side – all in the name of research of course!

We hit LA with a list of amazing places to see and people to catch up with. First up was top USA celebrity hair extensionist Sheila Stotts who we have been in touch with for a while and could not pass up an opportunity to get together and share all things hair extensions over a drink. Such a lovely and talented lady and naturally Inanch & her got on like a house of fire!

Having spent a little time window shopping in Beverly Hills and Rodeo Drive, we headed to Hollywood as the Dolby Theatre was prepped and ready for the Oscars. We’ve practised our acceptance speeches too!

Whilst we were in West Hollywood, we had to head to celeb hot spot salon Nine Zero One and meet up with the fabulous team who are responsible for creating those stunning hairdos we see on the big screen and in US magazines! So lovely to see the salon in full swing with many famous faces starting their Oscar preparations and at their new spot in Melrose Place. Good luck girls in new your new home xx

We also made time to spend with our very special friends Siva Kaneswaran and his gorgeous fiancee Nareesha McCaffrey who both moved out to LA last year. This lovely couple showed us the best places to hang out including a fantastic bike ride from Santa Monica Beach to Venice Beach and a sumptuous lunch at The Beverly Hills Hotel! Now back home, we can’t wait to start putting our inspirations and dreams into reality. Watch this space …
