The first edition of the International Hairdressing Awards® took place yesterday at IFEMA, Madrid, with a glittering awards ceremony and an awe-inspiring runway show.

Supernature is a new generation of nourishing hair care created by renowned hairdressing brand Saco Hair. Rich in quality nutrients, it contains such ingredients as biotin, pea protein, amla, wheatgrass and quinoa.

Inspired by the power of positivity, constancy & repetition, Sanguine channels the dynamic & feminine silhouettes of Thiery Mugler. Sleek forms and diffused textures are bold and brave whilst a condensed color palette of blood-red, black & blonde reveal accents of opposing colors through partings & fringes.

Returning for the fifth year, Richard Ashforth’s NOISE will be back to create a buzz in central London on October 15th, and the amazing line-up has been announced. As always, the final details of the venue won’t be revealed until the day, all we can say is that Buckingham Palace is close by…

Dark Star features undercuts with strong weight lines creating a dramatic a contrast against the skin. With fringes finished with subtly jagged edges, the dramatic looks are worn in shades of inky blacks broken up by spotlights of iridescent shades of blue, yellow and magenta for a finish reminiscent of petrol.

Electric colors and clean lines that are reminiscent of the great Anglo-Saxon classics. French hairstylists Johan Aspinas and Julien Tur embellish the cut and style with stunningly graphic block color for a complete re-birth.

Savvy visitors to London's premier hair event, Salon International, know that it's so much more than a mere trade fair – the exhibition also runs in conjunction with two highly inspirational and educational initiatives – Salon Live and The Salon Seminars.

Re-create your own perspective – focus the light on the power of beauty and perception by eliminating the superfluous. This beautiful collection by Saco's International Art Team rebels against the concept of eye-contact being an all-empowering form of communication.

After the amazing success of its previous 3 editions in London, the Saturday of Salon International weekend was the occasion again to make some NOISE at the awe-inspiring guerrilla hairstyling event created by Saco International Creative Director, Richard Ashforth.

Avant-garde but somewhat toned down. Sinuously sculpted shapes, bobs, and mullets revisited. Add some awesome color and... voilà: a sublime blend!
