Professional Beauty & Hair 2023 wraps on a high!

Professional Beauty & Hair 2023, in partnership with Irish Beauty and headline sponsor Treatwell, made a triumphant return to the RDS on 28-29 May.

Over the course of the two days, we welcomed thousands of visitors to Ireland's ultimate beauty and hair event.

From Irish-owned start-ups, to global names, exhibitors showcased a range of new product launches and recent innovations to help you meet client needs and increase your profits.

The two days also featured three live stages, with some well-known industry names giving talks and doing skills demonstrations on a variety of topics.

Presented by Hairdressers Journal International and Modern Barber, the Hair & Barbering Stage hosted experts including Aidan Fitzgerald, Sean Taaffe, Aaron Nation, Ashleigh Kelly and Richard Correia.

The Trends & Techniques Stage welcomed a range of names, such as waxing therapist Gillian Redmond, talent specialist Louise Guilfoyle, salon owner Lisa Moroney, hair industry stalwart Greg Clarke and nail tech Kirsty Meakin.

Meanwhile, over on the Skin & Advanced Techniques Stage were Sinead Murphy, Louise O'Loughlin, Annalouise Kenny and more.

Professional Beauty & Hair also featured our Nails Competitions, which were held in collaboration with the Federation of Nail Professionals (FNP) and sponsored by Glitterbels, and the newly-launched Make-up Competitions, the latter which was hosted by Irish Beauty.

A number of nail techs and MUAs won in a variety of categories, as they were recognised for their immense talent and creative flair.

After two days of exploring, learning, and connecting with industry experts, we are delighted to announce that next year's Professional Beauty & Hair will take place on 21-22 April 2024. You can register your interest here.
