The weekend earlier than the Met Gala, I had the pleasure of attending the Hair Education Beauty Summit (HEBS), an inspiring gathering devoted to celebrating and elevating the artwork and enterprise of hairstyling.
The occasion introduced collectively a few of the trade’s most revered voices, together with Tokyo Stylez, Larry Sims, and Derek J Hair, who sat on an electrifying panel dialogue.
Every shared real-world recommendation, trade perception, and gems about working with top-tier shoppers, navigating branding, and constructing lasting success in magnificence. Their authenticity and experience lit up the room and left each attendee feeling empowered and impressed.
I later grabbed a pic with much more hair trade icons, Terrence Davidson, Derek J, and Janel Smith:
Earlier than diving right into a day full of data and creativity, each attendee had the possibility to unwind the night earlier than on a beautiful yacht trip. Cruising by the water with the breeze in our hair and cocktails in hand, it was the proper solution to loosen up and join with fellow magnificence professionals and creatives. The vibe was equal components celebratory and restorative—an opportunity to reset earlier than experiencing the following day’s artistry and training. For the yacht trip (which known as for Black Tie), I wore a robe by Valdrin Sahiti.
For the summit itself, I wore a lavender feather-trimmed LaPointe ensemble that felt each luxurious and playful—good for a weekend centered round magnificence and magnificence. The textured prime and shimmering skirt caught the sunshine as I moved by the expo, and the feathered element added a bit of caprice to the polished silhouette. I paired the look with mild blue Alaiia sandals and I’m again to my platinum pixie–and loving it.
HEBS was the proper mixture of trend, enjoyable, and foundational information. From the yacht to the panel, each element of the weekend mirrored a deep love for the craft and neighborhood of hair and wonder.
I left feeling recharged, impressed, and grateful to have been within the room. Till subsequent time!
