A Village Built by Hairdressers!
At the annual luncheon at the Waldorf Astoria hosted by Intercoiffure, an international organization of high quality hairdressers that count over 3000 salons in over 50 countries as members, I mingled with stylists and colorists from across the nation who gathered to honor each other's work, trade ideas and get the forecast for the upcoming year ( I'll give you a sneak peak: its all about above-the-shoulder cuts, a return to precision cutting and less dimensional hair color).
This year, Intercoiffure honored Vidal Sassoon, the man applauded as a key force in turning the craft of hair styling in to a multi-million dollar industry. His latest Hairdressers Unlocking Hope is an initiative that benefits Habitat for Humanity to raise money in support of the families who lost everything after Hurricane Katrina. This November, from the money raised thus far- 19 homes will be built in St. Tammany Parish, La., which was hit hard during the Hurricane.
So far the initiative has raised $1,150,997! Salons are either donating directly or raising money through their customers. We can get involved too! Find a participating salon near you at www.whodoesyourhair.com.
