What <strong>September</strong><br />
and <strong>October</strong><br />
have in store for<br />
PATRICK MURPHY<br />
EDIT HAIR CLUB<br />
It is still my salon’s first year in<br />
business and the team and<br />
I are going to be very busy<br />
prepping and planning for our<br />
very first ALFAPARF Milano<br />
Fantastic Hairdresser Awards.<br />
It’s a huge focus for us and<br />
very exciting! I’m also going<br />
to dedicate<br />
more time to<br />
social media to<br />
get the salon<br />
name out there<br />
as much as<br />
possible.<br />
MARK O’KEEFFE<br />
SUGAR CULTURE<br />
I wondered how we could<br />
top our most successful year<br />
to date, but so far <strong>2019</strong> has<br />
been just as – if not more –<br />
exciting with the expansion<br />
of the brand. Both Sugar<br />
Coated, a new premium nail<br />
and brow bar, and our second<br />
Sugar Daddy<br />
Barbers have<br />
just launched in<br />
the revamped<br />
Frascati Centre<br />
in Blackrock.<br />
Peter Mark honours long-serving staff<br />
EMPLOYEES FROM PETER MARK salons across <strong>Ireland</strong> gathered at the Westin Hotel in<br />
Dublin for the salon group’s annual Long Service Awards. Seventy-five members of staff were<br />
rewarded for their contribution to the salon group, with the average length of service between<br />
them being 19 years. Seven members of the team received top honours for working for 40<br />
years at Peter Mark. Collectively the staff celebrated at the event have more than 1,400 years<br />
of experience hairdressing, or 2.8 million hours of blow-drying, cutting and colouring! Peter<br />
O’Rourke, chief executive at Peter Mark, said: “As a company at the forefront of hairdressing<br />
in <strong>Ireland</strong> for the past 58 years, we know how important it is to attract and retain the best<br />
people. We place huge emphasis on nurturing the talent that comes through Peter Mark from<br />
the moment they walk in the door. We provide a lifelong career in the industry and we offer<br />
continuous professional development that is delivered through our world class training.”<br />
