IT FEELS LIKE this winter has been particularly long, but finally
we’re seeing the first signs of spring. I don’t know about you, but this
is one of the most exciting times of year for me – nature seems to wake
up and each day brims with possibility. We’ve tried to harness that positive
energy in this issue and bring you the most exciting inspiration and trends
for the new season. On page 36 you can find the Colour Forecast, where our
experts predict the shades clients will be craving for S/S20. There are also
exciting developments on page 32, where we hear all about the new National
Hairdressing Apprenticeship, which promises to revitalise the industry and
entice young people into this rewarding career path. And don’t forget to
enter the Most Wanted and The It List Awards – it’s the second year that all
categories are open to hairdressers and salon owners from Ireland. Turn to
page 24 for details, start creating your entry and make this the year that
you head to London and come back with a trophy. Best of luck!
