Salon Today - July 2008 - (Page 19)

ADVERTISEMENT PORTFOLIO: INDUSTRIAL CHIC INSPIRED BY THE EARLY 1980S in Manchester, England, Nick Arrojo’s spring/summer 2008 collection showcases twisted, asymmetrical, heavy layers with bold, straight bangs. Deconstructed cuts are long and heavy on one side and light and loose on the other. Graduated shapes have swing and movement, like the functional graduated bobs with loose razor cutting. 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. 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.

Since their regrowth will be less obvious, what can colorists do to keep them coming in regularly? 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. A. Although clients say “natural color,” try using three different tones to get a natural appearance. Because different tones are used, there is still color maintenance involved. Another way to keep clients coming into the salon is to introduce shine enhancers. Clients will want to come back to maintain the shine and condition in their hair, which is a valuable add-on service. —Tabatha Coffey, Joico guest stylist and ﬁnalist on Bravo’s Shear Genius. Coffey will star in a new Bravo series, Tabatha’s Takeover, later this year. NAHA 19 Finalists Announced Cutting Edge in Intercoiffure Nouveau’s 2008 “Creative Cutting” contest in Las Vegas.
