Oct. 12, 2026
CONFERENCE
Five journeys, five moments of realization.
Kenza Bel Kenadil, Christophe Gaillet, Sylvain Lipinsky, Alexis Mercier, and Emmanuel Esteban all started somewhere. Today, they style hair for fashion, film, major stages, competitions, and Fashion Weeks… and some have built their own artistic and entrepreneurial worlds. So, how does one go from being a young hairstylist to a recognized artist? What choices, encounters, and turning points changed the course of their careers? For this Biblond conference, our five guests will share their journeys, their beginnings, their ambitions, and a behind-the-scenes look at a career in which passion, boldness, and hard work can make all the difference. Are you still in training, a recent graduate, or have you been a hairstylist for one or two years? This conference is for you. Come hear from those who dared to turn their passion into a career. It’s an opportunity to find inspiration, discover new possibilities, and—why not?—find your own turning point.
