Salon International and Alternative Hair Show Trip

8 Learners and 3 NHTA staff went on the Salon International and Alternative Hair Show trip to London on 16th and 17th October.
On the first evening we arrived at our London hotel and were whisked off to the Royal Albert Hall to watch the Alternative Hair Show. The Alternative Hair Show is where teams compete in Avant Garde hair to win the title of winners. Teams arrive in London from all over the world so the standard was exceptional. We all spent the evening completely amazed and inspired by the standard of work - so much so one of the learners who attended decided to change the look she was planning for the NVQ level 2 hair show coming in the next couple of weeks based on what she saw.
After a good nights sleep, dreaming of the avante garde hair we had seen the previous evening we were transported to Salon International - a hairdressing exhibition. We spent the day at the exhibition looking at all the new trends and products such as feather extensions and also a new diffuser based applicator for a hairdryer that barrel curls hair!

A fantastic trip had by all - I for one will definately be going next year!
