Covering everything from interiors and business to haircare, we can’t wait for you to get inside. Find all of this, and more, in SalonEVO UK Issue #25!
COVER: Andrew Smith
The Pantone Colour of the Year was crowned as Mocha Mousse… which is why Andrew Smith’s rich and chocolatey creation couldn’t be more perfect for our cover. The short and edgy cut is the epitome of the paradoxical plays on gender that we’re going to be seeing in the industry over the coming year. And, of course, the shoot offers a nod to milk_shake, being set upon the pastel pink background.
EVENTS
Kicking off the magazine, we have our events segment – where we tell you all about the events of the season. First, we get into EVO On The Road, which was held in EVO’s home-city of Glasgow. The event was a roaring success – and soon enough, we’ll be hitting the road again. Next, we dive into the world of The Fellowship, and their biggest event of the year: The Fellowship Luncheon & Awards. We also jump back to Glasgow, where Crazy Color made their mark thanks to their Salon After Dark event with Sophia Hilton.
EDITORIAL
In our editorial pieces, we feature our esteemed columnist and the President of the Fellowship, Ashleigh Hodges, where she bolsters breaking down the barriers that still exist in our industry. We also introduce our Stylist of the Edition, Gina Conway, and Rising Star, Hannah-Marcia Larden. Looking back at their journeys, at different stages of their careers, we see what it takes to make a soaring career in this industry.
NEW YEAR
Looking towards the New Year we delve into the world of Nashwhite, to talk diversifying your space and growing a successful team – leading into Wahl stylist, Stacey Wright, who talks New Year goals and how to achieve them. We also get an introduction to the new Revlon Creative Team! With a look into the styles of the season, a word from our columnist, Barry Stephens, and a step-by-step guide to the ‘ocean punk’ style with Manic Panic’s Mikey O’Halloran… this New Year will have you ahead of the curve.
BUSINESS
As we move into business, Samantha Cusick talks us through the client experience – and how to use it to your benefit – before life coach, Sonia Magnier, takes us through her top tips to surviving and thriving during a recession. On the topic of finances, our new columnist, Colin McAndrew, tells you why you should never apologise for raising your prices. We also have all the tech-y talk, with Timely, Hair Tracker, Fresha, Yuv and Booksy too. All this and more…
INTERIORS
Proving why your interiors are key to boosting your business, we caught up with Hare & Bone to find out just how they’ve achieved longevity with their aesthetic. We also learn about Takara Belmont’s latest release – the Luar – and find out just why you need it in your salon. We also head across the pond to JZ Styles in Utah, USA, and then back to the UK, to see Jade Hayter at The 145 Collective. We also speak to the Queen of the South, Patricia Plymire, about the latest from Heiniger.
HAIRCARE
In 2025 haircare is everything – which is why we’re going deep into it. With Alfaparf Milano and Zen Hair Extensions guiding us into the how – and our new columnist, Patricia Davis, getting into the why – haircare has never felt easier. We even chat to Seed and Soul about supplements. With all this, and more, get settled down and get stuck into Issue #25 of SalonEVO UK!
