VAGARO LAUNCH INTERNATIONAL BRAND PARTNER PROGRAM

Vagaro, leading business management software for businesses in the beauty, wellness, and fitness industries, has announced the official launch of its international brand partner program.

Some of the most recognizable faces in hair are coming together to support and promote the brand and platform offerings that Vagaro provide, making life easier for the stylist and salon owner.

Names were taken from across the US and UK & Ireland hair and beauty communities, with members such as John Mosley (aka @popular_ nobody), Nicholas Romero of Thank My Barber!, and Color, Extension & Healthy Hair Specialist, Alyssa Hare. Also YouTube beauty blogger and makeup artist, Damilola Adejonwo, and salon owner Dominique-Dibenedetto, to name a few.

All practicing brand partners use Vagaro’s software for their business. Through this program, the software company aims to continue its tradition of developing and implementing new features on its platform based on direct feedback.

Vagaro CEO Fred Helou said: “At Vagaro, our product roadmap is heavily influenced by the needs and direct requests from the businesses who use our platform. We want our customers to not only feel heard, but also acknowledged and responded to. We want them to know that the product is genuinely theirs. By collaborating with trusted leaders in their industries, whom they may even look up to, we hope to keep those lines of communication open and facilitate innovation.”

Chairman and Founder of one of the largest haircare companies in the world, Farouk Systems, Inc., Dr. Farouk Shami has dedicated his life to giving back. Dr. Shami is a successful businessman and innovator. He owns 61 total patents with 22 pending, creating beauty discoveries like the first ammonia-free hair color, the first ceramic flat iron, and the first-tomarket digital color lab, the LG CHI Color Master Factory. He was the first to utilize NASA technology in the development of professional styling tools and haircare. He is also the first hairdresser to receive a Doctorate of Beauty – an honorary Ph.D. of Arts by SeoKyeong University in Korea.

On July 10th, he was the Spirit of Life Honoree at the upcoming fundraising gala called the City of Hope’s Spirit of Life Celebration. The Spirit of Life Award is presented to individuals whose professional and humanitarian accomplishments are worthy of celebration. It is the highest honor given by City of Hope, a National Cancer Institute designated comprehensive cancer center for diabetes, cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

Dr. Farouk Shami and Farouk Systems, Inc. have donated millions of dollars and resources to support various philanthropic causes, including COVID-19 relief to healthcare professionals, first responders, homeless shelters, and food banks. He was also a rapid responder when events and disasters – such as the 9/11 attacks, hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods – struck nationally.

He is a global frontrunner in the beauty industry who loves sharing his knowledge and his expertise with others. His partnership with Lone Star College at the CHI School of Cosmetology in Houston, TX, helps impact the development of future hairstylists and expand career opportunities for graduates. “Giving back is the art of transforming lives and creating a ripple effect of positive change in our world,” said Dr. Shami. “It’s a powerful force that ignites hope, uplifts communities and shapes a brighter furture for generations to come.”
