THE NEWS AND KNOW-HOW FROM YOUR INDUSTRY<br />
IHF WELCOMES<br />
NEW PRESIDENT<br />
DAVID CAMPBELL HAS been elected as<br />
the new president of The Irish Hairdressers<br />
Federation (IHF). David is the co-founder<br />
of House of Colour and is joined by new<br />
vice-president Danielle Lloyd, co-owner of<br />
Lloyds Hair – 2017 Most Wanted Supreme<br />
Team winners.<br />
This marks an exciting time for the IHF,<br />
with the new leadership team planning a<br />
three-year Legacy plan that will see the<br />
launch of new initiatives such as the Master<br />
Craftsman Hairdressing Diploma, the IHF<br />
mobile app, an IHF podcast and the Spark<br />
Sessions, a nationwide event to inspire female<br />
salon owners.<br />
“The IHF is the supporting body for every<br />
hairdresser in our industry. We will continue<br />
to grow throughout <strong>Ireland</strong> so every salon<br />
owner has an even stronger support base,”<br />
said David. “We aim to continue to educate the<br />
business community within the federation and<br />
expand our phone helpline for those who need<br />
on the spot attention and advice.”<br />
The IHF executive committee will also<br />
work to build a sustainable future for young<br />
hairdressers, following the recent approval<br />
of the first professional Irish Hairdressing<br />
Apprenticeship by the Apprenticeship Council<br />
last year.<br />
Most Wanted now<br />
open for entries!<br />
FAME AND GLORY could be yours if you enter <strong>Creative</strong> <strong>HEAD</strong>’s Most<br />
Wanted awards. The prestigious competition rewards the best in the business<br />
and with two trophies exclusively for salons in the Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong>,<br />
one might just have your name on it come September. The Exceptional<br />
Stylist award, sponsored by ALFAPARF Milano, is presented to a stylist<br />
demonstrating remarkable artistic skill, ability and commercial awareness.<br />
And new for <strong>2018</strong>, we’re allowing video submissions as part of your entry.<br />
Video is a superb way to illustrate a colouring technique you’ve invented or<br />
a new idea in action – but it must not replace any of the entry requirements<br />
listed in the criteria. Or, if your teamwork is really special, then Supreme<br />
Team is the category for you. The trophy, sponsored by L’Oréal Professionnel,<br />
is given to a salon that has shown how they work together to achieve amazing<br />
things. If you become a finalist, you’ll be invited to attend a glittering Grand<br />
Final, taking place on 3 September in London. The deadlines for Most Wanted<br />
entries is 14 May <strong>2018</strong>. Turn to page 28 for more information and your entry form<br />
