EDITOR’S LETTER
Linda Woodhead linda@mochapublishing.com.au
So here I am sitting down to write my Editors letter, and I can’t believe that we are almost at the end of the first quarter of the year. Time is just flying by… and before we know it, we will all be catching up at the iconic Queens Birthday Weekend, in Sydney, at Hair Festival and the New AHIA Creative Awards! We are super excited about this edition, it is an EPIC one for sure! We have jam-packed so much goodness in here, and we are thinking it is probably our biggest ever issue to date!
have the very clever Kristie Kesic and Sheree Knobel talking all things Colour with us… and it’s always exciting to go Global Talent Spotting with Pauline McCabe!
Firstly, before I continue, I just want to say a huge thank you to our 2020 contributors. You certainly looked after our salon owners with sound advice, tips and tricks and offered unwavering support throughout what has been the toughest year ever!
Featuring in this edition, we have AHIA Winner of Best Eco Salon for 2020 Tenille Lawrence, talking us through her Healthy Habits and we have 10 Minutes with the wonderful Leanne Cuttler. We cross the pacific with our International Feature on Danilo Giangreco, and there is oh so much more, that you will have to wait and see as you flick through the pages!
When the going got really tough, so many of you stepped up and offered guidance, and the amount of free online education that was produced was mindblowing. This is an amazing Industry; there are so many special humans, that it’s impossible to name them all, but all I can say is that I feel so blessed to be a part of it. In this mammoth edition, we are proud to introduce you to this year’s contributors! We are super excited to have so much talent collectively in one magazine… we have the amazing Jenni Tarrant, Clive Allwright, Paul Frasca, Gary Latham and Dario Cotroneo, delivering valuable information to you with their Blogs throughout the year ahead. We have the great business minds of Kym Krey, David Watts, Sharlene Lee and the Zing Team! We have the wonderful Angeli Marie Shaw talking to us about mindset, Anthony Gray from MIG Training and branding guru Sarah Garner from Digital Bloom, and great social media advice from Rachel Medlock at, Do You Even Social. Brodie Lee Tsiknaris takes us through Salon Culture, and how to achieve it with a young team and we
Last but not least…. The Australian Hair Industry Awards for Creatives & Business are BOTH open! We recently announced our biggest Judging panel ever! Over 100 Judges for the Creatives and we are so excited for all the stylists who are entering our new awards. Not forgetting the Business awards now in their 9th year to recognise business excellence across this great land! We can’t wait to catch up with everyone at Hair Festival and the New Awards and are honoured to be picking up the mantle from the legacy of Hair Expo in a collaborative with BHA Media. There are going to be many sneaky hugs taking place, I would say! Until the next issue.. Take care & stay safe, practice gratitude and enjoy each day!
