Nail comp deadline looms
Dear Readers
Aftermonths of planning and preparation it's finally time for
BeautyUK.This year, not only does Holistic Health take place alongside our flagship event but we are also thrilled to be launching a brand new event - HairUK.
We know that our fabulous exhibitors will have putmany hours of hardwork into building their exhibition stands, developing new products, devisingmoney-saving special offers, and working with us to create what we hope will be the highlight of your beauty year.
Inside this issue is ourmammoth BeautyUK and Holistic Health show preview - a whopping 19 pages of exclusive show offers, educational opportunities, exhibition floor plans and competition
information.My advice is to park yourself somewhere comfy, get a large hot chocolate and spend a couple of hours planning your visit. It will be time well spent and you'll benefit during your visit by already knowing which stands aremust-visits to get the best deals.Why not contact the exhibitors in advance to arrangemeetings on their stands so you can spend some quality time discussing your salon's needs?
Don't forget also that your show entry badges give you access to all three events. If you're considering introducing Complementary and HolisticTherapies to your salon, then a visit to Holistic Health is amust - read our article on page 133 to see the benefits that these treatments can have to your business. If you're looking for items to retail in your beauty business, then HairUK is bound to offer some solutions - including hair accessories and styling products that complement your existing ranges.
Follow us onTwitter@GuildNews to get the exhibition round-up as we count down the days, and for real time updates throughout the show! And don't forget, the event website at
www.BeautyServe.comwill featuremore special offers and new exhibitors as they're announced.
With very best wishes,
