DAY ONE: MEET & MIX #salonsmart18

After a short break from Sunday’s sessions and quick outfit change, the legendary pre-dinner Meet & Mix session began, and was abuzz with conversation.

Fizz-flowed as a host of experts were on hand to talk shop and get down to business. Fresh from their earlier sessions, Sally Montague, Jennifer Linton and Joanna MacDonald of Linton & Mac, Andrew Mulvenna, Carolyn Sweeney and Ken West along with Jane Williams, were on hand to restart conversations from the stage and give their inside insight.

Joining the presenters especially for the session were Gavin Hoare, Salon Manager of Richard Ward Hair & Metrospa and reigning It Guy Ky Wilson, Owner of The Social.

Each expert station was stormed with people keen to discuss key topics impacting salons today, plus provided the opportunity to catch-up over a nice glass of bubbly before heading down to dinner!
