Steadfast in their mission to support hair pros, ghd have been touring the UK, bringing members of their Pro Salon Network together over dinner and drinks to offer new opportunities for networking.

Popping up in Edinburgh, London, Manchester and Nottingham, each evening has included a delicious three-course dinner and drinks, styling demonstrations and an exclusive preview at an innovation launching soon.  

For the London leg of the tour, the iconic restaurant Tattu played host to the Southern Pro Salon Network contingency, with attendees including Cos Sakkas of TONI&GUY, Jack and Ross Williams-Hirst of Williams & Hirst and Daisy Goord of Daisy Goord Salon.

Following welcome drinks on the rooftop, the evening got underway with an exciting brand overview from Janine Jennings (pictured, below), head of education UK & ROI for ghd. “The industry is changing. The way people buy is changing, so we want to make sure the Pro Salon Network feel supported,” Janine said, when discussing the brand’s omni-channel strategy. Dan Rathbone, head of sales for ghd, also echoed this message, saying: “We wouldn’t be here as a brand if it wasn’t for our Professional Salon Network.”

The evening also included a teaser of an exciting innovation launching imminently, as well as a demonstration of the new ghd wave, with a model sporting stunning, lived-in, beachy texture.

On hand to give a deeper dive into the technology behind the tool was Juliet Scott-Pritchard, a scientist for ghd who works on the hair science and innovation team. Juliet also demonstrated why the optimum styling temperature remains 185ºC, giving the Pro Salon Network plenty of food for thought as they headed to dinner!
