WELCOME
The Professional Beauty team is all abuzz with excitement as we prepare for our flagship annual event – the Professional Beauty Johannesburg Expo – which takes place on 3 & 4 September at Gallagher Convention Centre in Midrand. Last year the event was re-introduced into the market after its enforced two-year Covid pandemic break. Thousands of industry professionals turned up for the 2022 show and we anticipate even more visitors this time. As this magazine went to publication, dozens of exhibitors from leading beauty, nails, spa, aesthetics and hair brands had already booked their stands, with more to follow. In this issue, you will find a big focus on the event, from our Show Preview to the Business Seminars Programme to the World Spa & Wellness Convention Programme. Trade shows such as this are invaluable for learning about new trends and products and networking with like-minded professionals. So, if you haven’t already pre-registered for the expo, you can do so now by clicking here https://pbjohannesburg.showhub.live/
There is lots of other interesting material to read in this issue of the magazine, namely tips on how to effectively communicate with both staff and clients, something that is vital to the running of any successful salon.
We have also included two special features – one on hair removal, which includes an article about the most common waxing problems, plus we also highlight some leading waxing brands and hair removal devices. The other feature is on supplements and how you should go about choosing a range for your salon.
