DEMONSTRATION

The fourth stage of the loop

Hydrate. Nourish. Rebuild. Three steps that Michiko Mabanda has been teaching for years at Mimihair Academy—and which have already transformed the lives of thousands of curls. But even after repair, something remains. A strand of hair can be healthy yet have lost its shape. A woman can have beautiful hair and not recognize it. FÉÉRIQUE calls this fourth step “Memory.” Conceived as an airline of holistic hair care, the brand doesn’t offer a routine but an itinerary: stopovers, ingredients that envelop the hair shaft, a ritual that feels less like a protocol and more like a journey back to oneself. On the Brand Stage, the two methods become one: HNRM. Come see what happens when the curl remembers.

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.
