Australian Hair Fashion Awards 2008

Picture 1

from the Australian Hair Fashion Awards 2008 Web site...

The Australian Hairdressing Industry hosts some of the best hairdressers in the world, and on the 17th of March we honour those individuals and teams who make this industry great. As more and more salons enter this– the purist and most respected awards event in the hairdressing industry globally– standards continue to rise and the integrity of hairdressing increases. The Australian Hair Fashion Awards, now in its twelfth year, have always attracted media in mass with over 30 consumer titles supporting the event nationally and over 60 international titles supporting the AHFA’s from both the trade and consumer media. Positive media attention around the finalists, the event and the winners not only educates the consumers to the benefits of professional hairdressing salons but it also educates them on hairdressing as a career choice.

Ann Maree Mason farewells Hair Expo

1192144783_8422
Ann-Maree Mason, Event Manager of Hair Expo Australia, has announced that she will be stepping down from the
post in early 2008 to pursue a new opportunity within the salon industry.

However, she leaves behind an event

that is well on track to being the biggest and best yet, with this year’s participation up 16% on 2007’s show.

Hair Expo Australia 2008 will be passed into the capable hands of Brian Thomas, Reed Exhibitions Australia
Commercial Director who will act as the event’s interim manager. Brian has over 14 years experience in the
exhibitions and events industry and has handled some of the country’s biggest events, including the General
Practitioner Conference and Exhibition – the largest exhibition for GPs in Australia incorporating an exhibition,
education and awards program.

An announcement will be made to the industry shortly on Ann-Maree’s successor. In the meantime, it’s business
as usual with the Hair Expo team of Matt Davies, Account Manager; Alana Ross, Senior Coordinator and Libby
Brooks Molloy, Awards Coordinator

Hair Expo Australia 2008 will continue to follow Ann-Maree’s original vision of a new, dynamic and exciting event.

Key International and Australian talent have been locked into the Hair Expo 2008 education and event program
and there are also many exciting new initiatives to be unveiled. A full list of key talent and events is due to be
published on 1st February, in the next issue of Culture Magazine and on the Hair Expo website
(www.hairexpoaustralia.com) meanwhile entries and nominations for the 23rd Annual Hairdressing Awards are
well underway.

Ann-Maree’s last day at Hair Expo is Wednesday, 6th February. Read More...
