Do you want to win £1000 for your salon? sos - support our salons

The hair and beauty industries are great businesses to be in, but we know that running a salon is not without its challenges. That’s why we have launched the SOS: Support Our Salons campaign, starting at this October’s HJ Live North in Manchester. The Campaign SOS is a whole series of initiatives with the aim of sustaining and growing the salon business. We have:

• Introduced 6 live stages, all designed to boost your business
• Pushed our exhibitors for the very best deals and incentives
• Launched the Salon & Spa Owners' convention, which meets the challenges of running a salon head on
• Created even more opportunities to network over a glass of prosecco so you can share ideas, problems and solutions
