SHOW
Symbiosis
Featuring on stage: Clara Quesne, Ema Medina, Sasha Gabriel, Idris Rebah, Josue Pesnel, Lucas Olivier Clauzel Following the success of its first edition, Symbiose returns with a second chapter that is more assertive, more embodied, and more radical in its artistic direction. Symbiose II does more than simply continue the adventure—it amplifies it, placing women’s hairstyling at the heart of its vision, without ever compromising on the technical excellence and unique style that have become the event’s hallmark.For this edition, six artists—each an undisputed leader in their field—bring their distinct worlds together around a single challenge: to reveal, using the same tools, the infinite range of stylistic possibilities for both men and women. Gamma Piu supports each of them in this quest, providing the creative space necessary for them to express their artistic vision. Clara explores volumes and shapes, sculpting the hair with a distinctly feminine sensibility. Lucas infuses women’s hairstyles with British rock energy, blending attitude with elegant rebellion. Alongside them, four exceptional barbers bring their unique perspectives to men’s hairstyling: Idris, at the crossroads of casual fashion hairstyling and the codes of the French underground. Ema, whose Latin flair, sunny spirit, and extraordinary technique redefine the art of the haircut. Josué, who sculpts curves and volume in perfect harmony with every feature of the male face. Sasha, a standard-bearer for French excellence, offering millimeter-precise, everyday chic for the trendiest hairstyles. For the duration of the show, these six artists will share the stage with both female and male models, bringing their respective worlds into dialogue to create a true harmony of styles. It’s a powerful way to affirm that barbering and women’s hairstyling are not opposing worlds, but are much closer than one might imagine. Symbiosis II: when six signature styles come together to redefine, as one, the boundaries of style. A perfect fusion of exceptional women’s hairstyling and high-end barbering design.

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.
