A power
packed line-up of hair artists took over the Salon stage showcasing some of the
newest hair trends for the season ahead

second edition and played host to some of India’s most inspirational hair
educators. The show saw over 400 hair professionals visit the show from across

Salon India was conceptualised in 2016 as a hub for
hair creativity focused on building a platform for the hair stylist community
to come together to learn from leading educators about latest trends and skills
leaving them inspired to take the best of hair techniques back to their
clients.
Day one started with the inspirational Savio John Pereira leaving
the audience spellbound with sleek and sassy hairdo’s followed by multi-award

avant-garde hairstyles. The day concluded with Depot artists, Dharmesh
Hingorani (DODO), Educational Director and German Munster, Ambassador, Depot rocking
the stage with an exclusive focus on men’s grooming and styling.
Day two kicked off with Vipul Chudasama launching
his Academy Collection- Romance, a collection that beautifully illustrated the
romance between the artist that is the hairdresser and the canvas that is the
hair. The finale for Salon India was a fantastic educational masterclass from
TIGI Creative Director, Ralph Boss and Regional Education Director Andy Cheong
who showcased the latest global cut and
colour trends for the upcoming season including 3 high-drama fantasy looks
using TIGI Bed Head’s copyright colour.
TIGI also hosted their Backstage Heroes Hair
Competition at Salon India across 7 categories with 31 finalists recognising
and rewarding some of the most talented hair talent from across the country. Judging the competition was an eminent panel of
industry leaders; including Kapil Bhalla, Make-up Artist; Nandita
Mahatani, Fashion Designer; Nonita Kalra, Editor, Harper’s
Bazaar; Seema V. Jerajani, Consultant and Educator, Hair and Make-up, SVJ
Academy; Bina Punjani, Art Director, Bina Punjani Salon, Academy and
Bridal; and Apeni George, Hairstylist.
Speaking on the occasion, Ralf Boss, Regional
Education Director Tigi (Asia) said, “It has been an
absolute delight to witness the young talent in the Indian hairstyling
industry. Salon India brings in a wave of new talent to lead the growing
industry in India along with some cutting-edge styles for the upcoming season
and it has been an absolute pleasure to be a part of this moment.”
Vipul Chudasama,
Director, Hair Education commented, “This was
second year in row to be part of the most sought hair show Salon India. The
show was spectacular right from arrangements to the audience. It was overwhelming
response from hundreds of hairdressers to watch our new Academy Collection
"Romance" between an artist & hair. This is the great platform
for an artist to inspire today's hairdressers.”
Seema V. Jerajani,
Consultant & Educator, Hair and Make-up, SVJ Academy commented, “I had a great time presenting 11 looks. Having opened the show with
avant-garde hair from my collection 'Rudra' and immediately changing each look
into an editorial hairstyle gave an interesting twist to the show. Looking
forward to Salon India 2018!”
