A L’Oreal Professionnel Main Stage Takeover
Not once, not twice – four times! HairCon welcomed L’Oreal Professional to the Main Stage for four different shows over the weekend.
First to the stage on Sunday was Hooker&Young with Jonathan Turner and Sophie Lenton, who conjured old-world mystery through sculpted silhouettes, Moroccan hues, and golden light.
They were followed closely by Darren and Jackie Ambrose with their show Raw & Refined, a transforming collaboration on stage.
On Monday, we welcomed Jack Howard to the stage with a show dedicated to the art of French Blending.
And finally, Arkive by Adam Reed: In Real Life. Joined onstage by Andrew Plaester, Sarah Balck and Sam Bickle, this was a show where softness met grit, precision met chaos, past met present.
