Modern Salon - July 2008 - (Page 98)

MODERN EDUCATION Dear Professional, If you’re looking for industry superheroes, look to the members of the Professional Beauty Association (PBA). Recently, I accepted the “Sicilian of the Year” award from the Federazione Siciliana del New Jersey, and it got me thinking about the extraordinary people in our industry who accomplish amazing deeds, but aren’t always recognized for them. PBA takes pride in the professionals who make up our membership and in their accomplishments. They make the professional beauty industry look its best! Below are a few examples of such individuals. Intercoiffure Hosts Symposium Intercoiffure America/Canada recently hosted its spring Greensburg Salon Gets Help from PBA Member In the spring issue of PBA Progress, PBA’s quarterly newsletter, you can read more about how one of PBA’s distributor members, Bob Peel Jr, president of Peel’s Salon Services, is rebuilding a salon destroyed in the Greensburg tornado, at no cost to the salon owner. Not only are Bob and Peel’s Salon Services helping the owner rebuild her salon, they are doing it to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum Standards. When distributors such as Bob support the community in this way, it can only positively reinforce the perception of the beauty industry. PBA is made up of members like Peel and when we all come together, we can change the way the world sees our industry.

PBA Salon Owner Wins Business of the Year Marilyn Ihloff, owner of Ihloff Salon and Day Spa and longtime PBA member, was recently named “2008 Oklahoma Small Business Person of the Year” by the U.S. Small Business Association. Ihloff was awarded this honor based on her companies’ staying power, growth in number of employees, increase in sales, innovativeness of product and contributions to community-oriented projects. In her spare time, Ihloff also volunteers as a PBA Salon/Spa Leadership Council Member. It is members such as Ihloff who so generously share their time and business acumen with fellow members that make PBA the industry’s premier trade association. symposium in Las Vegas featuring hands-on education, awards presentations and new product previews.
