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 among 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 purchasers, 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 information and creativity, each attendee had the possibility to unwind the night earlier than on a stunning yacht trip. Cruising via the water with the breeze in our hair and cocktails in hand, it was the right strategy to calm down and join with fellow magnificence professionals and creatives. The vibe was equal elements celebratory and restorative—an opportunity to reset earlier than experiencing the subsequent day’s artistry and schooling. 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 via the expo, and the feathered element added a bit of caprice to the polished silhouette. I paired the look with gentle blue Alaiia sandals and I’m again to my platinum pixie–and loving it.
HEBS was the right mixture of style, enjoyable, and foundational data. From the yacht to the panel, each element of the weekend mirrored a deep love for the craft and neighborhood of hair and sweetness.
I left feeling recharged, impressed, and grateful to have been within the room. Till subsequent time!
