You will find the best of the best competing in all categories of the Hair and Fashion Industries, From Nails, Men’s Hairstyling To Student Competitions done on Hair Mannequins.
Countries as well as individuals compete. The Hairstyling Teams consist of 4 Stylists and a spare. There usually is a Team Manager, a Team Trainer, a Makeup Artist and a Fashion Stylist.
Countries from all over the world compete in all categories at the Hair Olympics to win the Hair World Championship! This Hair World also has some great presenters and educators taking stage to present new Hair Trends, and Displaying the technical skills on the “How to Create The New Upcoming Hair cuts and Styles”
Hair World is an opportunity for Hair Suppliers, Distributors and Manufacturers of Hair Products to display the latest in Hair and Beauty Products.
My first experience with Hair World was in 1978 in Dusseldorf, Germany. I had flown myself and 2 great hair models out to compete in the Individual Category (not on the team) and managed to place in the Top 10 with both of my models. I was fairly new to the hairstyling business and was 19 years of age.
I did try to make Team Canada at the team eliminations in Windsor, Ontario, didn’t make the team, but was ready to go give it a try and compete in the individuals. I knew I was certainly not going to win the World Championship, but I knew I could do well.
My hair cutting skills were top notch, and had recently returned from attending the Vidal Sassoon Advanced Hair Academy in San Francisco. We placed 9th overall in the wold championships and I couldn’t have been more excited.
9th Place was good enough for us! The next 2 weeks in Germany was party hardy!
The reason I am writing this post is to share with people about our exciting hair industry!
Hair is an art form, and hair business is recession proof!
It’s one of those businesses where you can take your tools and open up shop, or work anywhere in the World, by simply packing up a few tools!
I have met some incredible people from around the globe through being in hairstyling, and from hairstyling at this level.
Today, I still meet from all across the globe. Hairstylists have come online, and brought their businesses online, or have simply created some great sites where they showcase their work. Other hairstylists networking and exchanging ideas, photos, videos and more. It’s just as exciting today online, as it is offline. The connections and friendships made are life long wonderful relationships with some of the top hairstylists in the world.
I am proud to be one of them.
Anyone looking to get into the hair business, student hair stylists, and any other hairstylist professionals that would like to connect with me I would be thrilled to get to know more about you, and what you are doing!
If there is anything that I can do to assist those in the hairstyling industry or those coming into it, or considering hair styling as a career do contact me!
I personally do not compete anymore, I do remain very current with the hair trends.
I am available for consultations, and for hair styling coaching, training, and hair business coaching as well.
