With the experience gained over the last couple of years of being involved in the hair restoration industry, I have found there is a need to support hair professionals to improve business skills.
We set up Business of Hair with the idea of creating a intimate, friendly environment where professionals from different sectors of the industry can network and discuss working together. It also gives treatment providers the opportunity to showcase their products to potential customers where they may have been unable to do this previously.
There have been two BoH seminars so far, and it has gone from strength to strength, and we look forward to hosting the next one on the 16th January 2021 at the Crown Plaza, Solihull.

‘Business of Hair was a fantastic event and I was impressed by the desire of the delegates to learn more about how to run a successful business. The day enabled delegates to get tips on subjects such a website design, marketing, social media and self-promotion and how they use those tips to help improve their business processes. I hope to continue to develop this event and bring more opportunities to practitioners in the hair industry, to improve business skills and to help the hair restoration business practices.’
‘The first Business of hair seminar was a great success bringing together multi disciplines across the hair loss sector with very relevant speakers that spoke about relevant topics to everyone’s practice, well worth attending.’
