Fashion-Forward Nail Lacquer Brand Makes It Way to Beauty Supply Stores

When many think of OPI, they think of high-end nail polishes. The brand, known for its nuanced range of colors, is a nail salon staple and a favorite amongst nail enthusiasts. However, it’s not a name that is often seen in beauty supply stores – at least not until now.

Targeting Millennials in Beauty Innovation

Millennials are a difficult demographic to attract. That’s no surprise to many marketers, especially those who work in the beauty industry. At the incosmetics North America event in New York City in October, Thomas Vierhile sought to address that very issue.

Avoid Leadership Pitfalls: Direction Versus Speed

By Elizabeth McCormick

Have you noticed your team not putting the usual miles in at work? Could it be burnout? Many have experienced a much bigger drag on resources by giving the orders for your team to take off flying at full speed, only to find out later that the course was in the opposite direction of your desired goal.

Here are five tips to assure your leadership and team directives match the end result you envision.

54 The Will vs. The Why

By Nathan Jamail

There is a common mindset of those who are always looking to win, no matter the obstacle. These winners are in all industries and all positions. Most of them move up in their organization quickly by having a simple thought, “Will,” while those who struggle, focus on the, “Why.” Top performers, no matter what happens to them or around them say, “We will do…” Those who struggle say, “Why did they do…” The “we will” mindset turns today’s challenges into tomorrow’s success stories.

“하겠어” VS “왜” 어떤 장애물이 있던지 항상 이기려고 하는 사람들에게는 공통적인 사고 방식이 있습니다. 모든 산업과 모든 직위에 이러한 승자들이 있습니다. 이들의 대부분은 “하겠어”라는 단순한 생각을 가지고 빠르게 조직내에서 승진하는 반면, “왜”에 대해 집중하는 사람들은 힘겹게 나아갑니다. 그들 주위에서 어떤

Express Yourself!

One of my favorite television shows to watch is a drama called “Claws”. It follows the life of a nail tech who gets involved in a life of crime. What I enjoy most about the program is not just the storyline but the exquisitely crafted nails that each character wears. From jewel adornments to flashy holographic hues, their nail designs reflect their mood and personality.

Many of your customers will want to express themselves with their nails, too. While some may turn to a professional nail technician to get the nails they dream of, others will choose to do it themselves in the comforts of their own home. Those do-it-yourselfers are the customers that should catch your attention. Whether they’re looking for trendy press-ons or a bold nail polish color, all are in demand right now and are items you should be keeping in stock.

In this issue, we’ll point you in the direction towards proven sellers, like the nail lacquer company OPI. You can learn more about them on page 34. If you’re looking for ways to attract customers to your nail products, we have some great ideas on how to incorporate the latest Fashion Week trends into your nail product displays too on page 62.

And let’s not forget that this month is No-Shave November. A man’s beard is just as important when it comes to self-expression. This presents an opportunity to cater to your male customers with products that will help them cultivate their beards and keep them groomed. You can learn more about that in Notes from the Natural Nation on page 60 and Clipper Tips on page 70.

The fact is, we all want to make a great first impression and show the world who we are with one glance. Help your customers do that with an inventory stocked with the must-haves for the nails and beard.

사실, 우리 모두는 강렬한 첫인상을 주고

Much like getting a haircut or waxing your brows, nail care is an essential part of any beauty routine. The problem is, too many people don’t have the proper tools for DIY nail care or they don’t visit a manicurist frequently enough. Dull clippers and flimsy emery boards just don’t cut it.

When shopping for nail grooming tools at beauty supply stores, people want the best tools that will help their hands and feet look groomed and cared for. But with so many options available, how do you choose? Learning which tools are fundamental for healthy nails is the first step. The best thing to remember is to stick to the basics. There are a few go-to items that you simply must have in your beauty bag. Use these eight tools to trim, shape, and file your way to beautiful nails.

Fingernail and Toenail Clippers

Must-Have Tools for Nail Care

First of all, just say no to cheap, dull nail clippers. These can do more harm than good and lead to cracked or rough nails. Second, as surprising as it may seem, it’s important to understand the difference between fingernail and toenail clippers. Toenail clippers are typically larger and cut longer, thicker nails more easily. Using fingernail clippers on feet can also lead to damaged nails if the trimmers aren’t sharp enough.

Stainless steel nail clippers like the Dream World Brittny Deluxe Nail Clipper with file are the best option. Test their durability by pushing down on the bar, ensuring the clippers don’t bend under pressure and fit securely in your hand. While well-made trimmers have a higher price point, they last much longer than their inexpensive counterparts.

Four Sided Block Buffer

Choose a nail file that does more than smooth out the rough edges. Say goodbye to traditional emery boards and hello to four-sided buffers. The rectangular buffer shapes and smooths the nail’s edges with a gritty texture while still being gentle on the nail. It can also be used on the nail plate to eliminate irksome rough spots and ridges. A buffer, like the Dream World Brittny Block Buffer Nail File, is different from a

nail file because it adds a shine to the nail for a salon-fresh look. The finish is smooth and glossy but looks totally natural. Buffers also last longer than emery boards and can be washed or sanitized between uses.

Cuticle Nipper

Cuticles and hang nails can be unsightly, not to mention rough, dry, or sore. Keeping them trimmed around the nail not only reduces the chances of cracking, but nail polish goes on smoother for a more clean and professional look.

Choosing a salon quality tool is the best way to keep your cuticles in check. Cuticle nippers, such as the Dream World Brittny 4” Cuticle Nipper come in both half and full jaw sizes with varying blade sizes to tackle tight spots. To use them, just touch the blade to the top of a hangnail or over your cuticle and squeeze the handles together to cut.

Callus Remover

There are so many types of callus removers that will loosen up dead skin, but a two-sided scraper like the Dream World Brittny 2-Way Callous Remover with a plastic or wooden handle will definitely do the trick. One side features a rougher grit that is best for removing tougher calluses. The other side is finer and is ideal for regular use to prevent build-up.

Removing calluses should be part of your pedicure regimen. Once the calluses are removed, your feet will feel softer than ever before. These tools can be used on wet or dry feet, but work best after feet have been soaking in warm water for a few minutes.

Nail Brush

After trimming, buffing, and nipping, it’s a good idea to clean around and under the nails. Choose a brush with bristles that are strong enough to scrub the nail clean, but not abrasive enough to damage the skin or under the nail. The Dream World Brittny Nail Brush is a great option.

For a deeper clean and exfoliation, massage bath soap into the bristles of the brush and scrub around the nail and skin. To preserve the brush, always rinse it well and allow it air dry before storing it.

Design Tools – Dotting Tool and Nail Art Brush

The perfect finishing touch to any manicure or pedicure is nail art. From intricate designs to polka dots, nail art is tricky without the right instruments. Luckily, there are tools to help.

The Dream World Dotting Tool is used for marbling and dotting designs with nail polish. Dotting tools have two different ends or come in sets of varying sizes, helping create the perfect nail art. They’re also helpful when adhering small gems to the nail. To use these handy tools, lightly dip the end into the nail color of your choice and start creating intricate nails designs.

A nail art brush is different than a typical brush used for nail color application. These brushes have an ultra-fine point that helps you draw without getting too much polish on the nail. Now you can create stripes, flowers, swirls or any other artwork with ease. The Dream World Brittny Nail Art Brush great choice for this. Thoroughly wash and dry the brush after each use for a long-lasting tool.

This list of must-have nail care tools is not exhaustive. There are so many products to choose from depending on the characteristics of your fingernails and the type of care they require. By keeping these basic tools in stock, you’ll be able to expertly address all of your customers’ nail care needs.

There’s nothing like the feeling of freshly-manicured hands or a soothing pedicure. This is a luxury for many, but it doesn’t mean that customers don’t want to have professional results at home. One of the benefits of going to a beauty supply store is knowing that you can pick up products for consumer use or even a few items meant for professionals. That means that a spa-quality pedicure or manicure can be achieved from the comforts of home. Be sure to stock up on these popular items to help your customers keep their hands and feet looking their best.

MAXIMUM STRENGTH NAIL

POLISH REMOVER

No at-home manicure or pedicure would be complete without removing old nail polish, a task that requires a quality polish remover. The Marianna Nail Polish Remover (Pure Acetone) is up for the task of removing the most stubbornness of polishes and acrylic tips with the greatest of ease. It’s also a great solution for dissolving nail glue. tresses from further heat styling.

TAPE FOR NAILS

The key to stunning nails is a professional polish application. But everyone’s hands aren’t steady enough to avoid painted cuticles. For those with a shaky hand, the Mini Mani Moo Mess No More offers the perfect solution. Simply brush this solution on the skin surrounding the nails, allow to air-dry then apply nail polish as usual. The product can be peeled off afterwards to remove any wayward brush strokes.

FAST DRYING TOP COAT

There’s nothing worse than painting your nails in a rush. Anyone who has waited for three coats of polish to dry knows that one false move can result in a dented or smeared paint job. That’s where Seche Vite Top Coat comes in. This clear polish penetrates through the nail lacquer to the base coat to create a durable finish within about 5 minutes flat.

FOOT BATH

Who says you have to wait until you visit a spa for a foot massage? The Hot Spa Ultimate Foot Bath allows you to have a stimulating foot massage with the push of a button. Unlike other foot baths, this product uses activated oxygen to control, reduce and eliminate bacteria. It also features bubbles and vibration for foot comfort and includes three interchangeable massage attachments including a pumice stone and acupressure feature.

BROKEN NAIL REMEDY

A broken nail happens from time to time, but when a break happens near the quick of your natural nail, it can be very painful. Rather than try to cut your nail low, you can salvage the nail with 5 Second Nail Repair Kit. This mends the broken nail quickly and efficiently.

NAIL MASKS

Your customers won’t have to wait until their next salon appointment to pamper their nails. The Barielle Nourishing Nail Mask can strengthen and hydrate the nails within 30 to 60 minutes. The mini masks can be applied to nails to saturate them with coconut and argan oils, leaving behind nourished, moisturized cuticles and nails.

QUICK DRYING NAIL SPRAY

Never deal with smeared or ruined nail polish again with the Nail Enamel Dryer. Nail enthusiasts can attest to how much effort it takes to paint your nails, only to nick or rub the nail by mistake and destroy their perfect polish. This product can be sprayed onto freshly polished nails to speed up the nail drying process exponentially.

NAIL TREATMENT

Thick, discolored nails can often be a sign of an active fungus. While there are many causes for this, having this issue is nothing short of embarrassing. Varisi Nail Restore Solution is the antidote for this common problem. With consistent use, affected nails can see major improvement.

PUMICE BAR

Suffering from rough, dry feet? Your feet won’t know what hit them when you use the Robanda Pumice Bar. This combination bar has coarse and extra coarse grits on opposing sides of the bar. This ensures you have the right coarseness for your needs. After one use, you’ll have smoother, softer feet.

NAIL WRAPS

If your customers don’t like to return to the salon to have their gel polish removed, their next best option is to invest in the HandsDown Nail Wraps. Typically, nails must soak in a bowl of acetone before the gel polish can be removed. These nifty wraps allow you to soak the nails individually, with the wrap being small enough to wrap around each finger or toe.

NAIL POLISH

If your shoppers are looking for a new polish, encourage them to try the ICU Nail Lacquer collection. Red polish is a classic, but this product line has many other vivid colors to choose from. Customers will be able to express themselves with one swipe of the polish brush.

TOE SEPARATORS

Before you paint your toenails, it’s helpful to separate them to avoid painting your skin, too. The Brittney Toe Separators work perfectly for this purpose. Once the polish has been applied, keep the separators on to keep your toes from touching during the drying process.

There are so many important things to remember when it comes to nail health that sometimes it can be a little overwhelming. Your customers may even turn to you for help! That’s why this month we turned to a few industry experts for wisdom we can all use and pass on.

What one tip would you give OTC retailers to pass along to customers in regards to healthy nail care?

“Keep hands and nails moisturized! Hydrate hands and nails with quality cuticle oil and hand cream to insure healthy nails.”

Charisse Solomon, former Director of Marketing & Product Development DeMert Brands www.demertbrands.com

“When purchasing nail products, consumers should prioritize products that are user-friendly. If you stick to the basics you will likely care for nails more often—and keep them healthier—because the products are easy to use.”

Finished Product Broccoli Seed Oil

The tiny, green, miniature trees that our parents piled onto our plates were our least favorite of our evening meal. As adults, we later came to appreciate those fibrous tiny trees as a much-needed source of essential minerals and vitamins. Over the past few years, formulators have begun cold pressing oils from broccoli seeds to enhance the overall health of our hair. Broccoli’s impressive transformation from malformed flower bud, to tasty vegetable, is now pushing boundaries in cosmetics as the next ‘It’ ingredient in the hair care industry.

Humble Beginnings

Over 2,000 years ago ancient Roman civilizations cultivating cabbage in Calabria, Italy, noticed tender green flower buds sprouting from their crops. The warm, Mediterranean climate provided suitable conditions for broccoli to sprout, moving the cabbage-derivative from the patch into traditional Italian meals and culinary practices. Hundreds of years later, broccoli’s popularity began to expand west from its humble farmlands in Southern Italy finding its way into western European cuisines. Broccoli seeds continued westward when a surge of Italian immigrants sailed to America and farmed their traditional vegetable in their new home. It wasn’t until the early twentieth century when Westerners began to discover the health benefits of consuming essential vitamins and minerals through broccoli. Decades later, cosmetic formulators pushed the boundaries by cold pressing broccoli seeds and studying the health benefits of its oils in human hair.

Benefits of Broccoli Seed Oil

Cold pressing broccoli seeds allows for the fibers and oils to easily separate, yielding a pure, unrefined, and nutritionally rich form of

broccoli seed oil. By itself, broccoli seed oil is a dream ingredient desired in products combating dry skin and hair due to its combination of vitamins C and K. Broccoli seed oil contains essential vitamins C and B6 help strengthen growing hair at its root. Broccoli seed oil is also a host for all other essential components that dry follicles need such as Vitamins A, B5, B12, C, and E along with iron, niacin, zinc, sulfur, silica, and germanium.

Broccoli seed oil also boasts a fatty acid composition that closely resembles silicone, a competing ingredient found in many hair products. Similarly to silicones, broccoli seed oil provides hair with a smooth texture so hair feels soft and helps eliminate frizz and flyaway. While broccoli seed oil and silicones have functional similarities, broccoli seed oil’s use of uric acid or Omega 9 provides a smooth, sheen appearance without the residue of harmful chemical detergents in your hair.

Broccoli

Seed Oil in DAX For Naturals

For over 65 consecutive years, Imperial DAX Hair Care Inc. has been known for our Petrolatum-based pomades, and hair creams.

Products such as our world-renowned DAX Wave and Groom (red tin) and our cornerstone DAX Pomade have set the standard for who we are as a company in the hair care market. We knew that in moving forward in this industry we were going to have to make changes in how we wanted men and women to embrace their hair. Until now, we never once thought that it would be with the use of broccoli seed oil.

A little over a year ago when we started putting together our new line, DAX For Naturals, we went back and forth on finding innovative ways for helping women embrace their natural hair. We began by sifting through a neverending sea of possible ingredients that would replace the use petroleum. Unanimously, our eyes all landed on broccoli seed oil and from there we put together our Combing Cream, Styling Pomade, Curling Cream, and our Protein Treatment.

Looking to the Future

For the time being, it is difficult to say what the future of broccoli seed oil will be but we can predict that it will be bright. With the exception of DAX For Naturals and a few higher-end cosmetic lines, broccoli seed oil is relatively new to the industry. But just because it’s new, doesn’t mean that broccoli seed oil doesn’t have a buzz surrounding it. Simply type in “Broccoli Seed Oil” into your Google search engine and you’ll find pages of information on its benefits, proclamations of broccoli seed oil being the new “It” ingredient, and bloggers rhetorically asking why we haven’t lathered our hair in broccoli seed oil sooner. We believe that it’s safe to assume that other companies will follow in DAX For Natural’s footsteps.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

Part 1

The Disappearing Black Power Base of Formally African American Owned Manufacturers of Black Designated Hair Care Products

There have been several major acquisitions as of late involving blackowned firms that are now owned by majority and foreign country firms. However, this trend is not new. In fact, it dates back to as early as the ‘60s. Prior to that time, the black-oriented hair care product business was all but ignored by the general market product companies. But a market survey accidentally revealed that black consumers purchased cosmetic and beauty-related products well beyond their proportionate numbers. At that time African Americans were only 10% of the total U.S. population but were consumers of more than 25% of cosmetic products that included haircare items.

African Americans paid more for professional hair care services per visit than others. For example, the average black patron paid about $30.00 for a full-service treatment, meaning shampoo, press & curl, perms, conditioners and set. The patrons of other cultures spent about $12.00 for just a shampoo, set and style. Today, the prices are higher, but the pay scale and trend are the same, only now African Americans are 13% of the population and consume over 33% of cosmetic products and services. The main factor as to why the Black beauty supply consumer market is so strong is that Black women spend up to three times as much money per salon visit than do others. While most non-Black patrons, get a shampoo, set, color or haircut per visit, Black women generally get a gamut of treatments in one visit, from relaxer perms to conditioning treatments and hair augmentation (i.e. weaves, braids and extensions). Many of these services are not even offered in non-Black salons, plus Black patrons return for maintenance services more often than other cultures.

So armed with this information, the majority-owned firms wanted in on this potentially profitable market that they had formerly ignored. Note: the majority of Korean-owned beauty supply outlets are directed at that market for this and other reasons, resulting in resulting in Koreans controlling 80% of professional Black-designated hair care product sales and distribution in U.S. beauty supply stores. Also, Black women are the major consumers of commercial hair that the Koreans have control of, import and distribute. It is interesting to note that the Koreans are only 3% of the U.S. population but control 60% of the nation’s beauty supply stores and distribution.

Revlon

way in the early ‘60s. They first acquired a black-owned firm, Deluxol, in Chicago. That company manufactured a relaxer line and related products. This product did so well under the original name with Revlon’s financial backing for advertising and promotions that Revlon came out with another similar line under their own name. They have done quite well in that endeavor ever since, even while using several trade names. Revlon was motivated primarily by how well Johnson Products Company - a blackowned product manufacturing company in Chicago - was doing with their Ultra Sheen line of relaxer products. At that time, Ultra Sheen was the bestselling relaxer line. They were able to infiltrate and dilute Johnson Products’ market share by 50% through extensive advertising and promotions in Black media. Revlon later dropped the Deluxol name.

After that other majority companies jumped into that market with greater success than anticipated. Company’s such as Alberto Culver, the makers of V05, developed TCB and later the Motions line. Clairol acquired a Black-owned line called Summit Labs out of Indianapolis, Indiana. After a successful run, they sold the line to director Clyde Hammonds who was with the company from the start. Clairol later decided to get out of the ethnic product business, but they learned from this experience how to better serve the ethnic hair care market. This was the first time that an originally black-owned company was acquired by a majority firm and later reclaimed by a black-owned company.

In the mid-’60s, a new look of the moment was the original Black hairstyle called the Natural. This style encouraged the growth of natural hair. The hair was then groomed, combed or “forked” into a neat, round appearance and cut into a well-rounded shape. The first company to offer a product that catered to this style was Magnificent Products in Los Angeles. Two barbers, Dennis Taylor and Wilber Jackson, founded the company. The product and the style became a nationwide phenomenon. Other companies tried to capitalize on this success, but none overcame the pursuit. Later a majorityowned firm, J. Strickland (the makers of Royal Crown and Dixie Peach products) made the Magnificent Products an offer that they could not refuse and bought the company. But instead of furthering and enhancing the sales and popularity of the products, they withdrew it from the market and shut it down? Johnson Products picked up the slack with a product called Afro Sheen that did quite well until the fad was replaced by the Jheri Curl.

In the early ‘80s Worlds of Curls, a black-owned company in Compton, California, became financially strapped due to diversifying into endeavors outside of their niche market and the declining curl market. Worlds of Curls had the best-selling curl maintenance products for both professional and retail consumers. The company is now owned by the J. Strickland Company.

Johnson Products of Chicago was acquired by a majority holding and investment firm a few years ago. It changed ownership four more times since then and was even acquired by Wella Corporation – a company whose niche market is hair color products. Later Wella was acquired by Proctor & Gamble and now Johnson Products has new owners. I’ll share more information about this in Part 2 of this series.

Soft Sheen Products of Chicago was the next product line to be acquired by major-majority firm, L’Oréal of Paris. SoftSheen manufactured the best-selling Black curl products, plus the Optimum and Mizani lines. At the time, the acquisition of SoftSheen was the largest one of its kind ever

Revlon은 1960년도 초에 이 시장에 크게 가담한 대다수 회사 중 하나였습니다. 그들은 처음에 시카고에 있는 흑인-소유 회사 Deluxol를 인수하였습니다. 이 회사는 릴랙서 라인과 관련 제품들을 생산했습니다. 이 제품은 Revlon의 막강한 자금으로 뿌려 대는 광고에 힘입어, 원래의 제품명으로 엄청난 판매의 상승을 보였고, 비슷한 제품에 자사의 이름을 사용한 다른 라인을 통해 제품을 홍보 하였습니다. 여러 이름들을 사용해가면서도 그 상승세는 지속적으로 이어져 나갔습니다. Ravlon 은 Johnson 제품 회사(시카고에 있는 흑인-소유 제품 생산 회사) 가 릴랙서 제품인 Ultra Sheen으로 성공을 거두는 것을 보고 영감을 얻었습니다. Ultra Sheen 은 가장 잘 팔리는 릴랙서 제품이었습니다. Ravlon은 Johnson 제품 시장에 침투하여 점유율을 50%까지 낮추는 데에 성공하였습니다. Revlon은 나중에 Deluxol 이라는 이름을 더 이상 사용하지 않았습니다.

이 후, 다른 대다수 회사들이 기대 이상의 실적을 내며 시장 진출에 성공하였습니다. V05의 생산자인 Alberto Culver 같은 회사는 TCB 를 개발하고 나중에 The Motions 라인을 개발하였습니다. Clairol은 인디아나 주 인디아나폴리스에 위치한 흑인-소유 제품 Summit Labs 를 인수하였습니다. 성공적인 출시 후, 이 제품 라인을 회사 시작부터 있었던 Clyde Hammonds에게 팔았습니다. Clairol은 나중에 유색인 제품 사업을 관두었습니다. 이 일이 대다수회사에 의해 인수된 본 흑인소유 회사가 다시 흑인-소유 회사에 의해 인수된 첫 사례입니다.

‘네츄럴’이라고 불리는 오리지널 흑인 헤어스타일이 1960 중반 당시 새로운 패션이었습니다. 이 스타일은 자연스런 모발을 기르도록 도왔습니다. 기른 머리는 깔끔하고 둥그런 모양으로 다듬어지고, 빗어지고, “포크”된 후, 제대로 둥그스러운 모습으로 잘라졌습니다. 이 스타일을 위한 제품을 제공한 첫 회사는 로스엔젤레스의 Magnificent Products였습니다. 두명의 이발사인 Dennis Taylor 와 Wilber Jackson, 이 이 회사를 설립하였습니다. 이 제품과 스타일이 전국적인 유행이 되었습니다. 다른 회사들도 이 성공에 가담하려 했지만 실패하였습니다. 이 후, 대다수 회사 J.Strickland (Royal Crown과 Dixie Peach 제품의 생산자)가 Magnificent Products가 거절할 수 없는 제안을 했고, 결국 회사를 인수 했습니다. 하지만 이 제품의 판매와 인기를 더 발전시키고 향상시키는 대신, 그들은 이 제품을 시장에서 철수시키고 생산을 중지하였습니다. Jheri Curl이 출시될 때까지 Johnson Products가 Black Sheen이라고 불리는 제품으로 인기를 지속했습니다.

1980년대 초반 캘리포니아 Compton의 흑인-소유 회사인 World of Curls가 자신의 고유 시장을 벗어나 감소하는 curl 시장에 다양하게 진출함으로써 재정난을 겪게 되었습니다. Worlds of Curls는 전문가들과 리테일 소비자 모두를 위한 베스트셀링 curl 유지 제품을 소유하고 있었습니다. 이 회사는 이제 J. Strickland 회사가 소유하고 있습니다.

시카고의 Johnson Products는 몇 년 전에 주식 투자 회사에 의해 인수되었습니다. 그 후로 4번에 걸쳐 주인을 바꾸고 염색제품시장을 점유하는 Wella Corporation에 의해 인수되기 까지 했습니다. 나중에 Wella는 Proctor & Gamble에 의해 인수되었고 현제 Johnson Products는 새로운 오너를 맞이했습니다.

시카고의 Soft Sheen Products는 그 다음으로 대기업인 L’Oréal of Paris에 의해 인수된 회사입니다. SoftSheen은 Optimum과 Mizani 라인들과 함께 가장 잘 판매되는 흑인 curl 제품들을 생산하였습니다.

recorded and put L’Oréal in the Black hair care market big time. Plus, they also owned the Dark and Lovely line. Prior to this, L’Oréal was the largest manufacturer of hair care products to the general market in the world, along with Bristol Myers (who also owned Clairol), that is now owned by Proctor and Gamble. This acquisition also gave L’Oréal the distinction of owning the largest Black hair care company in the world. L’Oréal later attempted to acquire the Johnson Products Co. from the investment company but was stopped by the Fair Trade Commission, because this would have given them an unfair monopoly in the ethnic hair care product business. This opened the door for Wella to purchase Johnson Products. Proctor & Gamble, who also acquired Clairol from Bristol Myers, acquired Wella later.

그 당시, SoftSheen의 인수는 업계에서 가장 큰 규모의 인수였고, L’Oréal은 흑인 헤어케어 시장에 단번에 진출할 수 있었습니다. 또한 그들은 Dark와 Lovely 라인도 소유했습니다. 이 전까지 L’Oréal은, 현재 Proctor and Gamble이 소유하고 있는 Bristol Myers (Clarirol 도 소유)와 함께, 전세계의 일반 시장에 헤어케어 제품의 가장 큰 생산자 였습니다. 이 인수로 인해 L’Oréal은 독자적으로 세상에서 가장 큰 흑인 헤어케어회사를 소유하게 되었습니다. L’Oréal은 나중에 투자회사로 부터 Johnson Products 회사를 인수하려고 했으나 공정거래위원회에 의해 중지되었습니다. 이 기회로 Wella가 Johnson Products를 인수할 수 있었습니다. Bristol Myers로 부터 Clairol을 인수한 Proctor & Gamble이 나중에 Wella를 인수 하였습니다.

Fashion-Forward Nail Lacquer Brand Makes It Way to Beauty Supply Stores

유행을 한 발 앞선 네일 래커 브랜드가 뷰티 서플라이로 향하고

When many think of OPI, they think of high-end nail polishes. The brand, known for its nuanced range of colors, is a nail salon staple and a favorite amongst nail enthusiasts. However, it’s not a name that is often seen in beauty supply stores – at least not until now.

Select OPI colors are now available through Jinny Beauty Supply, much to the pleasure of its cult followers. Colors such as Cajun Shrimp, Black Onyx and Bubble Bath are among the many fan favorites that are available for beauty supply stores. The same customers that shop at beauty supply shops also frequent the OTC stores that offer this brand. Adding OPI products to your inventory will keep your store competitive.

많은 사람들이 OPI에 대해 생각할 때, 하이 엔드 매니큐어라고 생각합니다. 미묘한 색상 차이로 유명한 이 브랜드는 네일 살롱의 필수품이며 네일 애호가들 사이에서 인기가 많습니다. 그러나, 이 브랜드는 적어도 지금까지는 미용 용품점에서 자주 볼 수 있는 브랜드는 아닙니다.

OPI 색상의 선택도 이제 Jinny Beauty Supply를 통해 가능하며, 컬트 팔로워들의 즐거움도 그 만큼 커집니다. 팬들에게 인기가 많은 케이준 쉬림프, 블랙 오닉스 및 버블 바스와 같은 색상은 뷰티 서플라이 매장에서 이용할 수 있습니다. OTC 매장에서도 이 브랜드를 자주 찾는 고객들은 이 제품을 공급하는 뷰티 용품점에서 쇼핑합니다. 재고에 OPI 제품을 추가하면 매장을 경쟁력있게 유지할 수 있습니다.

Founded in 1981, OPI began not as a professional nail care brand but as a dental supply company during the acrylic movement of the 1980s. Realizing that dentures and artificial nail extensions share a similar chemistry, OPI saw an opening in the market and seized it. The company began dropping off the “rubber band special” at every salon on Ventura Blvd. in Los Angeles. A jar of powder, liquid and primer – rubber-banded together – became the OPI Traditional Acrylic System and was a huge hit, giving OPI its start in the professional nail industry.

After establishing its roots, OPI took the brand to consumers with the launch of 30 groundbreaking Nail Lacquer shades in 1989. With its famous

OPI에 대해서

1981년에 설립 된 OPI는 전문적인 네일 케어 브랜드가 아닌 1980 년대의 아크릴 유행 시절에 치아 공급 업체로 시작되었습니다. 의치와 인공 네일 확장이 비슷한 화학적 성질을 가지고 있음을 깨달은 OPI는 시장이 열리고 있는 것을 알아챘습니다. 회사는 로스 앤젤레스 Ventura Blvd의 모든 살롱에서 “ 고무 밴드 특별 판매”를 시작했습니다. 파우더 자, 액체 및 프라이머를 고무 밴드로 함께 묶어 판매한 제품은, OPI Traditional Acrylic System 이 되어 엄청난 인기를 얻었으며 이로 인해 OPI는 네일 전문 업체로 그 여정을 시작 하였습니다.

About OPI

bottle, incredible colors, high-quality product and unique names, OPI revolutionized the nail care industry. In fact, some of these original shades –Alpine Snow, OPI Red, Malaga Wine – became so iconic, they are still sold today. Over the years, OPI revolutionized the industry, encouraging women to embrace deep, dark shades with Lincoln Park After Dark and introducing the “greige” trend with You Don’t Know Jacques! The company brought blue to nails with Russian Navy over 10 years ago and has been watching this trend play out on the runway ever since.

For nearly 30 years, OPI has offered users a “message in a bottle,” creating a worldwide “culture of color” embracing color as a powerful tool for self-expression. OPI stands apart from other companies by maintaining its authentic voice while helping women to fulfil their aspirations and engaging them in unique ways. Back in 1989, OPI did what companies today are just starting to do – offer an experience to consumers, building emotional connections. OPI’s success has always been about relationships. The company has gained the loyalty of millions of women around the world by offering a product they love and a voice they can trust.

Catering to the Multicultural Market

독특한 이름으로 네일 케어 산업에 혁명을 일으켰습니다. 실제로, 오리지널 쉐이드들 중 일부-알파인 스노우, OPI 레드, 말라가 와인-는 아이콘이 되었으며 지금도 여전히 판매되고 있습니다. 오랫동안 OPI는 업계에 혁명을 가져 왔으며 여성들이 Lincoln Park After Dark와 함께 깊고 어두운 쉐이드를 하도록 장려하고 You’n Know Jacques와 함께 “greige”트렌드를 출시했습니다! 이 회사는 10 년 전에 Russian Navy 를 통해 함께 손톱에 파란색을 칠하게 했으며 이후 이 트랜드가 계속 지속되었습니다.

거의 30년동안, OPI는 사용자들에게 “병안에 담긴 메시지”를 통하여 자기 표현을 위한 강력한 도구로써 색상을 포용하는 전세계적인 “색조 문화”를 창출했습니다.

OPI는 여성들이 자신의 포부를 성취하고 독특한 방식으로 참여하도록 돕는 동시에 진정하고 변함없는 목소리를 내는 것으로 다른 회사와 구별됩니다. 1989

년에 OPI는 오늘날 기업들이 시작한 일, 즉 감성 연결 고리를 구축하여 소비자에게 경험을 제공했습니다. OPI의 성공은 항상 관계에 관한 것입니다. 이 회사는 그들이 사랑하는 제품과 신뢰할 수 있는 목소리를 제공함으로써 전세계 수백만 명의 여성들에 대한 충성도를 얻었습니다.

Targeting Millennials in Beauty Innovation

밀레니얼 세대를 겨냥한 뷰티 혁신

Millennials are a difficult demographic to attract. That’s no surprise to many marketers, especially those who work in the beauty industry. At the in-cosmetics North America event in New York City in October, Thomas Vierhile sought to address that very issue. Vierhile, the Innovation Insights Director of GlobalData PLC, hosted the highly-anticipated seminar entitled, ‘Targeting Millennials in Beauty Innovation.’ OTC Beauty Magazine chatted with Vierhile to discuss this elusive generation and how marketers can target this demographic.

밀레니얼 세대는 까다로운 그룹입니다. 수 많은 마케팅 담당자, 특히 미용 업계에서 종사하는 사람들에게는 놀라운 일은 아닙니다. Thomas Vierhile은 10월 뉴욕시의 화장품 북미 행사에서 바로 이 이슈에 대해서 발표했습니다. GlobalData PLC의 Innovatoin Insights 이사 Vierhile씨는 ‘밀레니얼 세대를 겨냥한 뷰티 혁신’ 이라는 제목의 세미나를 주최했습니다. OTC Beauty Magazine은 Vierhile과 마케팅이 까다로운 세대와 마케터가 이 세대를 대상으로 어떻게 해야 하는지에 대해서 대화를 나누었습니다.

OTC: In your seminar description, it said that Millennials are constantly looking to express their unique “self” what is meant by this?

Vierhile: Millennials are much more likely to say they prefer to be unique and stand out than earlier generations. Social media provides this generation with unique opportunities to accomplish this, so there is something of a positive feedback loop which may make Millennials more oriented to “express their unique self” than earlier generations. The numbers on this are interesting. US Millennials are more than twice as likely to say they prefer to be unique and stand out from the crowd than the oldest age group we survey, consumers aged 65+. This explains the explosion in things like tattoos where younger generations are literally expressing themselves through customized body art. Temporary hair coloring products have become another popular way for millennial-age consumers to express themselves.

OTC: 세미나에서 밀레니얼 세대는 자신들만의 독특한 “자신”을 계속적으로 표현한다고 했는데 이게 어떤 의미죠?

Vierhile: 밀레니얼 세대는 이전 세대보다 독특하고 돋보이는 것을 선호한다고 말할 수 있습니다. 소셜미디어는 이 세대들에게 이러한 개성을 표현할 수 있는 수단이 되어주며, 밀레니얼 세대가 이전 세대보다 “자신만의 독특한 자아를 표현할”수 있도록 장을 만들어 줍니다. 이것에 대한 데이터는 흥미롭습니다. 우리가 조사한바에 따르면, 미국 밀레니얼 세대는 나이가 많은 연령 집단인 65세 이상의 소비자보다, 대중속에서 독특하고 돋보이는 사람이 되고 싶다고 말하는 경우가 두 배 이상 높다고 합니다. 이것은 젊은 세대가 문자 그대로 내가 원하는 바디 아트를 통해 자신을 표현하는 타투와 같은 것들의 폭발적인 증가를 설명합니다. 임시 헤어 컬러 제품은 밀레니얼 세대 소비자가 스스로를 표현하는 또 다른 보편적인 방법이되었습니다.

This generation is more individualistic than older generations, but it is also more educated and engaged. Regarding engagement, Millennials may have more of an expectation that they want to play a part in creating products than earlier generations. According to GlobalData’s Q3 2016 survey, 77% of US Millennials say they find the concept of products they helped create to be appealing. This is a much higher percentage than for older generations.

OTC: How are Millennials different from the generation before them in their behaviors and buying habits?

Vierhile: One important way that Millennials are different is that they are much more appearance-oriented, and as a result are beginning to use antiaging products (just one example) much earlier than older generations.

According to GlobalData’s Q4 2014 consumer survey, 12% of 25 to 34-yearolds globally began using anti-aging products between the ages of 18-24, but only 2% of 45-54 year old consumers said they began using anti-aging products at that age.

The numbers are only slightly different for American consumers.

14% of 25 to 34-year-olds in the survey said they began using antiaging products between the ages of 18-24, compared with just 3% of 4554 year old consumers that said they began using these products at the same time.

Cultural pressures are driving younger consumers to take steps to improve or maintain their appearance much earlier than with older generations. “Selfie culture” is something that did not exist before the smartphone; older consumers did not even have access to this technology when they were younger while younger generations have never lived through a time when this technology did not exist.

이 세대는 나이든 세대보다 개인 주의적이지만, 교육을 더 많이 받았고 참여도가 높습니다. 참여에 관해 밀레니얼 세대는 이전 세대보다 제품을 만드는 데 참여하고 싶다는 기대를 더 가질 수 있습니다. GlobalData의 2016년 3분기 조사에 따르면, 미국 밀레니엄 세대 중 77%는 그들이 제품 제조에 참여할 수 있는 제품들을 찾고 있다고 합니다. 이것은 이전 세대보다 훨씬 높은 비율입니다.

OTC: 밀레니얼 세대의 행동과 구매 습관에있어 이전 세대와는 어떻게 다른가요?

Vierhile: 밀레니얼 세대가 다른 세대와 많이 다른 점 중 하나는 더 외모지향적이라는 것이고, 이로 인해 이전 세대보다 더 빠르게 노화방지 (단 하나의 예)제품을 사용하기 시작하는 것 입니다. GlobalData의 2014년도 4분기 소비자 설문조사에 따르면 전세계적으로 25세에서 34 세의 12%가 18-24세 사이에서 노화방지 제품을 사용하기 시작했으며, 45-54세의 2%만이 그 나이에 노화방지 제품을 사용했다고 합니다.

수치는 미국 소비자만을 대상으로 할 때는 약간 다릅니다. 25 세에서 34세의 14%가 18-24 세 사이에서 노화방지 제품을 사용하기 시작했으며, 45-54 세의 3%만이 그 나이에 노화방지 제품을 사용했다고 합니다.

문화적 압박으로 인해 젊은 세대는 구세대보다 일찍 자신의 모습을 개선하거나 유지할 수있는 조치를 취하게 되었습니다. “셀카 문화”는

스마트 폰 이전에는 없었던 것입니다. 노년층 소비자는 젊었을 때 이 기술을 사용하지 못했지만 젊은 세대는 이 기술이 없었던 시대를 살아 본 적이 없습니다.

Millennials seem to be more inclined to distrust “bigness” than older generations. As a generation, Millennials are somewhat more likely to trust smaller brands and companies. This has certainly helped pave the way for innovation in “craft” products like food, the spirit of which has spilled over into personal care.

Millennials are also much more likely than older generations to say they want to buy products that are reflective of their personal attitudes and opinions. This may be why companies are beginning to take a stand on

밀레니얼 세대는 나이든 세대보다 “크기”를 불신하는 경향이 있습니다. 시대가 지남에 따라 밀레니얼 세대는 소규모 브랜드와 회사를 신뢰하게 될 것입니다. 이것은 음식과 같은 “크래프트” 제품에서의 혁신을 위한 상황을 조성하였는데 이것의 주요 정신은 개인 관리입니다.

밀레니얼 세대는 또한 이전 세대보다 자신의 개인적인 태도와 의견을 반영한 제품을 사고 싶어 할 가능성이 훨씬 높습니다. 기업들은 소비자들의 외면이 두려워 이를 피하기 위해 보다 논쟁의 여지가 많은 사회 문제에 참여하기 시작하였습니다.

more controversial social issues, something that companies would have tried to avoid in the past for fear of alienating consumers. One last area worth mentioning is the potential of the male beauty sector. Millennial men are much more self-conscious about their appearance than earlier generations and while the US market may be well behind trendsetting markets like South Korea in this regard, the future looks bright for the sector.

OTC: How can those in the beauty industry market to Millennials and cater to their love for technology?

Vierhile: Millennials are more comfortable with technology than older generations and may also be more intimidated by face-to-face interactions than the latter. Beauty industry participants can capitalize on these tendencies by making it easier for younger consumers to sample, try, and buy their products via technology. One relatively new development that could really make waves here is something called augmented reality. This technology allows consumers to take a selfie of themselves and then virtually “try on” different cosmetic products including lipstick and more. Since this is done on a smartphone, there is no sense of embarrassment in trying something radically new or different. Newer applications of this technology close the loop by allowing consumers to purchase beauty care products after virtually trying them on. This type of technology has the potential to have a major impact on the beauty industry.

Millennials are comfortable with technology and are more open to technology being brought to bear on daily grooming rituals. This is a generation that lives on their smartphones and as a result, smartphoneconnected electronic tools and devices are likely to resonate with Millennials more so than older consumers.

OTC: What are some of the dominant buying behaviors that you’ve noticed with this demographic?

Vierhile: Millennials are much more likely to trust their peers than they are to trust advertising that comes from a brand or retailer, so we’re seeing the growing influence of bloggers as well as user reviews in influencing consumer choice. Older generations are generally not as familiar with video blogs that demonstrate new products, but younger generations have helped turn beauty bloggers into celebrities and this influence is changing the market.

Another area that is important to Millennials is health and the impact of healthier lifestyles. Millennials do not tend to see health as something that is separate from beauty; the generation sees them as linked much more closely than older generations do. As a consequence, Millennials are more interested in beauty products that complement their active lifestyles, from

가지고 있으며, 미국은 이 전망 밝은 시장에서 한국과 같은 트렌드 리딩 시장에 비해 매우 뒤처져 있습니다.

OTC: 미용 업계의 사람들이 밀레니엄 세대에게 어떻게 마케팅하며 밀레니얼 세대들이 좋아하는 기술을 어떻게 제공 할 수 있나요?

Vierhile: 밀레니얼 세대는 이전 세대들 보다 기술에 더 익숙하며, 얼굴을 마주하는 상호 작용에 더 거부감 느낄 수 있습니다. 뷰티 업계 종사자는 젊은 소비자가 기술을 이용하여 더 쉽게 제품을 샘플링하고, 시도하고, 구매할 수 있도록 하여 이러한 성향을 활용할 수 있습니다. 실제로 파장을 일으킬 수 있는 새로운 개발은 증강 현실이라 불리는 것입니다. 이 기술은 소비자가 스스로의 셀카를 택한 다음 립스틱 등을 포함 해 다양한 화장품을 “시도”할 수 있게합니다. 이것은 스마트 폰에서 이루어지기 때문에 근본적으로 새로운 것을 시도 할 때 당혹감이 없습니다. 이 기술의 새로운 어플리케이션은 소비자가 미용 제품을 실제로 시도한 후에 구매할 수 있게 하여 불필요한 과정을 생략해 줍니다. 이러한 유형의 기술은 미용 산업에 큰 영향을 줄 가능성이 있습니다.

밀레니얼 세대는 기술에 익숙하며 일상적인 몸치장에 대한 기술 지원에 보다 개방적입니다. 스마트 폰을 가지고 사는 세대이므로 스마트 폰으로 연결된 전자 기기 및 장치는 밀레니얼 세대가 이전 세대의 소비자보다 공감할 가능성이 큽니다.

OTC: 이 세대의 눈에 띠는 지배적인 구매 행동은 무엇입니까?

Vierhile: 밀레니얼 세대는 브랜드 또는 소매 업체의 광고보다 동료를 신뢰하는 경향이 더 큽니다. 따라서 소비자 선택에 영향을 미치는 블로거 및 사용자 리뷰의 영향력이 커지고 있습니다. 이전 세대는 일반적으로 신제품을 시연하는 비디오 블로그에 익숙하지 않지만 젊은 세대는 뷰티 블로거를 유명인으로 전환시키는 데 도움을 주었고 이러한 영향으로 시장이 변화하고 있습니다.

밀레니얼 세대에게 중요한 또 다른 영역은 건강과 더 건강한 라이프 스타일입니다. 밀레니얼 세대는 건강과 뷰티를 별개의 것으로 보지 않습니다. 이 세대는 나이든 세대보다 건강과 뷰티가 훨씬 더 밀접하게 연결되어 있다고 봅니다. 결과적으로 밀레니얼 세대는 운동할 때도 사용할 수 있는 화장품에서부터 소위 말하는 완전 채식 뷰티라고 하는 동물 성분을 사용하지 않는 제품과 같이 건강 문제를 반영하여 개발 된 뷰티 케어 제품에 이르기까지 자신의 적극적인 라이프 스타일을 보완하는 미용 제품에 더 많은 관심을 가지고 있습니다.

cosmetics that can survive a workout to beauty care products that are formulated to reflect health concerns, like avoiding animal-products, a trend that is helping spur innovation in so-called vegan beauty.

The Millennial view on beauty is also somewhat different from that of older generations. Millennials are not as sold on using cosmetics to mask flaws; they tend to be more interested in using products that can accentuate natural beauty. Companies should innovate accordingly.

OTC: What is one of the challenges beauty businesses face when marketing to Millennials?

Vierhile: One challenge is clearly the growing influence of the online channel – not just as a distribution channel, but as a trendsetter and influencer of Millennials. Over two-thirds of US Millennials say they are more likely to trust blogger or user reviews than brand claims, according to GlobalData’s Q4 2016 consumer survey. And just over half of US Millennials say they are already buying beauty or grooming products that follow trends shown on social media. This tendency of social media to influence product trends is likely to continue to grow, and because this innovation model is much more fragmented than other sources of beauty innovation, it is going to be more challenging than ever for beauty businesses to keep on top of what Millennials really want.

OTC: Are there any tips you can offer beauty supply stores or beauty businesses to help attract and retain this audience?

Vierhile: I think it is going to be more crucial for beauty supply stores and businesses to keep on top of market developments than ever before. Change is happening much faster today than in the past, and companies that are not constantly paying attention to new developments or having an open mind towards change are not going to make it in the long run.

Business Tips

LEADERSHIP PITFALLS:

VS Direction Speed

A FAST TRAIN TO THE WRONG DESTINATION?

Have you ever had a day where your wheels spin a bit slower? Have you noticed your team not putting the usual miles in at work? Could it be burnout? Or is there something more underlying the anxiety? There is nothing worse than giving orders for your team to take off flying at full speed, only to find out later that the course was in the opposite direction of your desired goal.

Then, there are other times when a project is well underway and everything seems aligned properly, but there’s just no lift. The wheels just won’t leave the ground. Although tasks are getting completed and checked off the list, there’s no altitude allowing the project to accelerate. What’s happening? When started with a laser-focused goal in mind, the direction can change quickly if the proper guardrails and benchmarks aren’t set in place to keep everyone on target.

There’s a world of advice on staying productive, but those activities don’t mean anything if your coordinates are off, and that may be one of the biggest wastes of time (not to mention energy drains) you and your organization could experience.

Here are five tips to assure your leadership and team directives match the end result you envision.

1. Know Your Destination

일들이 계속 어긋나던 날이 있었나요? 관리중인 팀이 다 해야 할 일을 안 한 적이 있나요? 지쳐서 그랬을까요? 아니면 더 근본적인 것이 불안감 속에 존재하나요? 당신의 지시를 받은 팀이 전속력으로 작업 후, 나중에야 그들이 목표의 완전한 반대 방향에 있다는 것을 발견하는 것 보다 더 심각한 일은 없을 것입니다.

그런가 하면, 프로젝트가 잘 진행 중이고 모든 것이 잘 풀려나갈 때 마침 비행을 위한 동력이 부족할 때가 있습니다. 바퀴가 땅에서 떨어지려 하지 않습니다. 임무들을 완료하여 목록에서 아무리 지워 나가도, 프로젝트를 가속화할 동력이 없습니다. 왜 이럴 가요? 매우 특정한 목표를 가지고 시작할 경우, 모든 사람을 목표에 집중하게 할 적절한 가드레일과 벤치마크 없이는 방향이 빠르게 바뀔 수 있습니다.

생산력 향상을 위한 조언은 넘치고 넘치지만, 만약 당신의 위치를 정확히 알지 못한다면 모두 무용지물입니다. 정확한 위치를 알지 못하는 것은 아마도 당신과 당신 기관이 경험할 수 있는 최악의 시간낭비(체력낭비는 당연히 포함)가 될 수 있습니다.

When you begin with the end in mind, you have a distinctive vision of your desired direction and destination before instructing your team to launch. It doesn’t matter how big or small your project is - if the direction, intention, or desired outcome isn’t clear, it will be tough to fly your team to the dream. Assume nothing, clarify everything, and

이 5개 팁이 당신의 리더쉽과 당신 팀의

방향이 당신이 가고자 하는 방향과 일치하도록 도와줄 것입니다.

1. 도착지를 알고 있으세요.

도착지를 염두하면서 시작을 하면, 당신의 팀에게 이륙 지시를 하기 전에 당신이 원하는 방향과 도착지에 대한 명확한 비젼을 가지게 됩니다. 프로젝트의 크기는 상관이 없습니다 - 만약 방향, 의도,

have it in writing. If some aspect is open to interpretation, close that loophole up, or better yet, ask your team to contribute to the ownership of the project by being open to their quest for clarity.

2. Engage Your Team

Once you have communicated the objectives to your team, start by having team members re-state the goals and desired outcomes in their own words. Confirm and clarify often. This quite naturally highlights any variance between intention and perception. You can also use this opportunity to start fleshing out the project, brainstorming with the team, and adding detail to the project. This type of activity will help jumpstart the comradery as your team begins working together as a team toward a common goal. This will also enhance the collaboration necessary to ensure proper communication can take place from beginning to end.

3. Plan Your Work, Work Your Plan

Once everyone is on board and the team is headed in the right direction, be sure you have established the proper safety devices, benchmarks, and signposts for you and your team so that if there is any drifting off course, it will be recognized and realigned quickly without much time or effort wasted. Ensure that work is broken down into manageable, measurable, short-term goals to aid in motivation and increase productivity. Work organized into logical segments also aids focus and self-management of direction.

Complex projects lend themselves to digressions and diversions. Spelling out where you should be and when keeps efforts centered on the essential goals originally intended.

4. Own Your Results

As a leader, it’s your attitude, stamina, direction, commitment to the project, and work ethic that establishes the environment and culture of your team, as well as the success of your project at hand. If you are unclear of your destination, you can be sure your team will have a tough time understanding the purpose of the project and the directions you are trying to communicate.

One of the biggest reasons people drift, get distracted, and are taken off task, is that the purpose of their task isn’t strong enough to keep them engaged. If this is happening, recognize it, take some time to clarify your purpose and your destination, and then let your team know you wish to communicate better as you share your vision more clearly and effectively with everyone involved.

느끼게 하는 것입니다.

2.

당신 팀의 흥미를 이끄세요

일단 당신의 목표를 팀원들에게 알려준 후에는, 팀원들이 자기 나름의

단어로 목표들과 원하는 결과를 다시 표현하게 하세요. 자주 확인하고 모든 것을 명확히 하세요. 이는 의도와 이해 간의 차이점을 자연스럽게 드러내 줍니다. 또한 이 기회를 이용하여, 팀원들과의 브레인스토밍, 그리고 자세한 내용을 추가함으로써 프로젝트를 키울 수 있습니다. 이러한 종류의 활동은 팀원들이 공통된 목표를 향해 노력함으로써 동료들 간의 유대감을 빠르게 키울 수 있습니다. 이는 또한 시작부터 종료때까지 적절한 소통을 유지하기 위해 필요한 협력 또한 키울 것입니다.

3. 일을 계획하고, 계획을 위해 일하세요

일단 모두가 이해를 했고 팀이 올바른 방향으로 움직이기 시작했으면, 당신과 당신 팀을 위해 적절한 안전 장치들, 벤치마크, 그리고 사인포스트를 설립하여, 원하는 항로에서 벗어날 경우 시간과 노력의 낭비 없이 빠르게 이를 알아채고 수정 할 수 있게 하는 것을 잊지 마세요. 일을 관리/측정이 가능한 단기적인 목표로 나누어서 동기를 부여하고

생산력을 증가시키세요. 논리적인 부분들로 정리된 일은 집중력과 스스로의 방향 수정에 도움이 됩니다.

복잡한 프로젝트들은 집중을 방해하고 방해요소를 불러옵니다. 언제 어디에 도착해 있어야 하는지 명확히 명시함으로써 모든 노력들이

처음에 정했던 필수 목표들을 향하게 할 수 있습니다.

4. 결과에 승복하세요

리더로서, 당신 팀의 환경과 문화, 그리고 맡은 프로젝트의 성공 여부를 좌지우지 하는 것은 당신의 태도, 지구력, 방향, 프로젝트에 대한 열정, 그리고 작업 도덕성입니다. 만약 당신이 당신의 목표를 정확히 알지 못한다면, 당신의 팀도 프로젝트의 목적과 당신이 전달하고자 하는 방향을 이해하는 데 어려움을 겪을 것입니다.

“When started with a laser-focused goal in mind, the direction can change quickly if the proper guardrails and benchmarks aren’t set in place to keep everyone on target.

Sometimes the best of plans just don’t have the results intended. It happens. Maybe it was due to misinformation, miscommunication, not enough research, too many agendas, a drastic change in the economy, or an unexpected shift in trends to name just a few of the ever-changing facets of being a leader in business. Regardless of why it happened, own the results. Empower your team to help you assess what went wrong, develop the proper benchmarks and guardrails to prevent that from happening again, and then map out a new flight plan to a better destination.

5. Collaborate - Share Your Progress

For most people in corporate positions, there’s (hopefully) an effective boss who helps ensure there are proper reports on progress, with the responsibility to follow up. What happens, though, when you’re the boss? Who does your

사람들이 딴 생각을 하고, 집중을 잃고, 다른 일에 집중하게 되는 가장 큰 이유 중 하나는 그들이 맡은 임무의 목적이 흥미를 끌기에 역부족이기 때문입니다. 만약 이러한 일이 생긴다면, 이를 알아채고, 잠시 시간을 내어 당신의 목표와 목적지를 명확히 한 후, 당신의 비젼을 모든 이에게 더 명확하고 효과적으로 공유함과 동시에 팀원들에게 당신이 더 효과적인 소통을 원한다는 사실을 알게 하세요.

가끔 최고의 계획도 원하는 결과를

낳지 않을 때가 있습니다. 사실입니다. 비즈니스 리더로 역할 함에 있어 항상 변화하는 상황의 몇몇을 예로 들자면잘못된 정보, 소통의 실수, 부족한 연구, 너무나 많은 의도들, 갑작스런 경제변동, 또는 예측하지 못한 트렌드의 변화 때문일 수 있습니다. 이유가 어찌되었든, 결과를 수용하세요. 당신이 무엇이 잘못되었는지 평가하고, 이러한 일이 앞으로 생기지 않게 적절한 벤치마크와 가드레일을 개발하고, 그리고 더 낳은 목적지로의 새로운 항해 계획을 그리는 데에 있어 팀원들이 도와줄 수 있도록 북돋아 주세요.

5. 협력 - 진도상황을 공유하세요 회사 직책을 가진 대부분의 사람들에게는, 적절한 책임과 함께 진행상황에 대한 적절한 보고서 작성을 하도록 도와주는 효과적인 상사가 (아마도) 있습니다. 하지만 만약 당신이 상사라면 어떻게 하나요? 누구에게 당신의

project most effect, and who needs to know about the progress of your company, your goals, and your overall destination – your stakeholders? Your staff? Your clients? Other departments?

Regardless of who your project affects most, it is important to communicate, collaborate, and share your progress.

Include progress updates to those who your plans will impact, so that changes can be incorporated along the way. Sure, detours are inconvenient, but navigating them minimizes backtracking and maximizes the effectiveness of your efforts.

Leadership On Course and at Full Speed

With the direction of your project embedded in the planning and with contingencies made for changing conditions, you’ll soon see that the extra work in project planning serves productivity. When the runway is clear, your direction is plotted, and your flight plan is filed, you and your team can attain top speeds as you soar to success.

Managers Become Leaders with a Shift in Focus

방향 전환을 통한 매니저들의

리더되기

Senior leadership at the corporate headquarters of a large retail chain was entertaining succession planning. What started out as an exercise turned into a sweeping new protocol for transitioning managers into leaders. For the organization, it’s vitally important to get this right. Managers sometimes trip on their way up. Senior leaders can avoid this stumbling with an aggressive strategy.

Managers are typically promoted into leadership roles with the thought that their effectiveness will continue. But rather than assume, senior leaders are wise to put into place a two-pronged approach. The first prong is to place the right candidate. The second prong is to cultivate the well-selected candidate. This involves extensive training opportunities and environments that promote growth.

Transitioning managers into leaders should ideally start long before the switch is flipped. Early on, candidates should be “groomed” through extensive training, crossprogram experiences and leadership development.

시험삼아 시작된 것이 매니저를 리더로

포괄적인 새로운 프로토콜로 되었습니다. 조직에서는 리더의 권리를 얻는 것이 매우 중요합니다. 관리자들은 지위가 올라가는 동안 가끔 걸림돌에 걸려 넘어집니다. 시니어 리더는 공격적인 전략으로 이러한 걸림돌을 피할 수 있습니다.

“leadership landscape.”

Placing an incumbent leader in a productive environment is less precise.

The context of leadership can be polarizing, ambiguous, volatile and complex; so out of necessity, strong support systems must be in place. A network of colleagues to model the way and offer reassurance along with mentors, coaches and careful monitoring will serve as the classic challenge/support system to promote a productive transition while cultivating new leaders.

New Leaders Must Shift in Five Broad Areas

The biggest difference to grasp for new leaders is the change in role that entails a focused shift in five broad areas:

1. Production to Outcomes

The role of the leader is to influence the long-term with organizational strategy in mind. It is inherent in the leadership process that the leader influences the outcome. As the new leader begins working with department heads and stakeholders they need to be operating from a new perspective, a longterm view with an idea of the short-term, stepping stone implementation. A new leader must have both eyes toward efficiencies now and necessary adaptations toward the future.

2. Specialist to Visionary

Managers thrive as specialists. They know their department, their people, and their function. That’s not enough for a leader. Leaders must know the language of all departments. They must be able to translate information, patterns and trends from departments into the language of efficiencies, profit and direction. The vision of the organization is up to the leadership. No one else will take the reins here. Leaders must harness what is known now about the trends they see in the telescope and provide direction. Vision can be complex and multifaceted, but nothing can beat everyone pulling in the same direction. This is one big advantage that is difficult for competitors to duplicate.

대한 관점과 이해력을 갖추게 해줍니다. 현직 리더를 생산적인 환경에 배치하는 것은 덜 현명한 선택입니다.

리더십의 맥락은 양극화되고, 애매 모호하며 변덕스럽고 복잡

수 있습니다. 따라서 부득이하게 강력한 지원 시스템이 갖추어져 있어야합니다. 방법을 모델링하기 위한 동료의 네트워크와 멘토, 코치 및 신중한 모니터링을 통해 안도감을 제공하여 새로운 리더를 육성하면서 생산적인 전환을 촉진하는 고전적인 도전/지원 시스템의 역할을 합니다.

새로운 리더는 5개의 광범위한 분야로 이동해야 합니다

새로운 리더를 파악하는 가장 큰 차이점은 다음과 같은 다섯 가지 영역에 중점을 둔 역할 변화입니다:

1. 결과를 만들어 내는 생산

리더의 역할은 조직 전략을 염두에 두고 장기적인 영향을 주는 것입니다.

리더가 결과에 영향을 주는 것은 리더십 과정에서 내재되어 있습니다. 새로운 리더가 부서장 및 이해 관계자들과 함께 일하기 시작하면 새로운 관점에서 운영 되어야 하며 장기적인 관점안에서 단기적인 아이디어로 초석마련을 해야합니다. 새로운 지도자는 현재의 효율성과 미래를 향해 필요한 적응력 두 관점을 가져야합니다.

2. 비전제시 전문가 관리자는 전문가로 성장합니다. 관리자들은 부서, 직원 및 관리자가 해야할 일을 알고 있습니다. 리더는 이것들만으로는 부족합니다. 리더는 모든 부서에 대해 파악해야 합니다. 리더들은 부서들의 정보, 패턴 및 추세를 파악하여 효율성, 이익 및 방향성을 제시할 수 있어야합니다. 조직의 비전은 리더십에 달려 있습니다. 아무도 이것에 대하여 막지 않을 것입니다. 지도자들은 트랜드에 대하여 알려진 것을 반드시 시용하며, 미래를 보고 방향을 제시 해야 합니다. 비전은 복잡하고 다양하지만 모든 사람이 같은 방향으로 향하는 것을 이길 수는 없습니다. 이것은 경쟁자가 따라하기 어려운 하나의 커다란 이점입니다.

3. From One to All Managers have the responsibility to manage the day-to-day activity on the floor. They are embedded with the staff. Leaders don’t manage things as much as they lead direction. Whereas a manager focuses on employee engagement, a leader has a focus on workforce engagement.

A new leader may have lingering “departmental biases” that show up as baggage that slows meetings and other processes down. The classic mistake is for new leaders to over-manage and under-lead, especially their when dealing with their previous function. Colleagues need to give the new leader their patience while he cultivates an open-minded shift from managing one department to serving all departments in the organization.

3.

하나부터 모든 것 까지

관리자는 바닥에서 일상적인 활동을 관리 할 책임이 있습니다. 관리자들은 직원들과 같이 일을 합니다. 리더는 방향을 지시하는 것이니, 일에 대해서는 관리하지 않습니다. 관리자는 직원 참여에 중점을 두는 반면 리더는 인력 참여에 중점을 둡니다.

4. Solving Problems to Seeing Problems Before They Develop Strictly speaking, managers and leaders are keen problem solvers. But one of the finer points of leadership—and where leaders earn their keep—is seeing problems before they happen. If a leader can identify slowed growth or a decline in earnings early on and proactively put things in place to avoid the dreaded “workforce planning,” this “seeing” can save everyone.

5. Worker to Learner

Leadership is not about knowing—it’s about learning. New leaders typify the shift from a working manager to a learning leader. As they work to cultivate an open mind and flexibility, they must also demonstrate a commitment to relentless self-improvement—that means applying continuous learning toward competency, excellence and greatness.

When new developing leaders are hand selected, cultivated and afforded the organizational backing necessary for success, it’s more than an exercise in succession. It’s a testament to a leadership strategy and the state-of-the-art demonstration of a leadership culture. Over time the effort builds into the ultimate competitive advantage.

Meet Brian Braudis

새로운 리더는 회의 및 기타 프로세스가 지연되는 짐처럼 나타나 사라지지 않는 “부서별 편향”이 있을 수 있습니다. 새로운 지도자가 저지르는 고전적인 실수는 지나치게 관리하고 적게 리드하는 것입니다. 특히 이전의 기능을 처리할 때 그렇습니다. 동료들은 새로운 리더가 한 부서를 관리하는 것에서, 조직의 모든 부서들을 다룰 수 있도록 전환에 대한 개방적인 변화를 키우는 동안 기다려 주어야 합니다.

4. 개발하기 전 문제를 보기위한 문제 해결 엄밀히 말하자면, 매니저와 리더는 예리한 문제 해결사입니다. 그러나 리더십의 핵심은 문제가 발생하기 전에 문제를 보고 있다는 것입니다.

리더가 느린 성장 또는 매출 감소를 일찍 확인하고 두려운 “권고 사직”을 피하기 위해 사전에 조치를 취할 수 있다면 이 “통찰력”은 모든 사람을 구할 수 있습니다.

5. 근무자에서 리더로

리더십은 지식에 관한 것이 아니라 학습에 관한 것입니다. 전형적으로 새로운 리더는 일하는 관리자에서 학습 리더로의 변화입니다. 리더들이 개방된 마음과 융통성을 키우기 위한 노력과 또한, 끊임없이 자기 개선에 대한 헌신을 보여 주어야합니다. 즉, 역량, 우수성 및 위대성에 대해 지속적으로 학습하여 적용하는 것을 의미합니다.

새롭게 개발되는 리더들이 직접 선발되고, 육성되고, 성공에 필요한 조직적 후원을 제공 할 때, 그것은 계속되는 훈련 이상의 것입니다.

리더십 전략과 최고의 리더십문화의 산물입니다. 시간이 지남에 따라

이러한 노력은 궁극적인 경쟁 우위를 구축합니다.

The Mindset of Top Performers

“하겠어” vs. “왜” 최고 성과자의

There is a common mindset of those who are always looking to win, no matter the obstacle. These winners are in all industries and all positions. Most of them move up in their organization quickly by having a simple thought, “Will,” while those who struggle, focus on the, “Why.” Top performers, no matter what happens to them or around them say, “We will do…” Those who struggle say, “Why did they do…” The “we will” mindset turns today’s challenges into tomorrow’s success stories. The “Why did they” mindset turns today’s challenges into tomorrow’s failures with excuses that start with, “We lost because they did…”

The difference is simple – top performers focus on looking forward, despite what happened in the past.

John, a top performing insurance agent, is a perfect example of focusing on the “will.” The company he works for made some business decisions that caused his agency to have to change the way they did business to be successful. So, John quickly gathered his team with several industry leaders and said, “Given the change in our company direction, we are going to start focusing on these key services.”

사고 방식

모든 직위에

이들의 대부분은 “하겠어”라는 단순한 생각을 가지고 빠르게 조직내에서 승진하는 반면, “왜”에 대해 집중하는 사람들은 힘겹게 나아갑니다. 그들 주위에서 어떤 일이 발생하는 것에 개의치 않는 최고들은 “우리는 해낼 것 입니다.” 라고 말을 합니다. 힘겹게 나아가는 사람들은 “왜 그것을 했지…”라고 말합니다. “우리는 할 것입니다”라는 사고방식은 현재의 도전을 미래의 성공 스토리로 바꿉니다. “왜 그것을 했지” 라는 사고방식을 가진 사람들은 현재의 도전을 미래의 실패로 만들며 “그들이 그것을 했기 때문에 실패했어…” 라고 말을 시작하며 변명을 합니다.

차이점은 간단합니다 – 최고 성과자들은 과거에 발생된 일을 개의치 않고 앞으로 나아갈 것에 집중을 합니다.

보험회사의 최고 성과자인 존은 “의지”에 집중하는 아주 완벽한

The hardest part is being able to see the power of perspective during a change or event. That is why one’s mindset is more important than the process.

Not only did he share the shift in focus, he created a practice program and a game plan to ensure his team’s success, as well. He did not focus any attention or energy on “why” the decision was made because he knew it was immaterial to his success. In fact, he assumed, since he believed in the company and the leadership for the past 20 years, that the decision they were making was

예입니다. 그가 근무했던 회사는 성공을 위해서 기존의 사업방식을 변경해야 하는 의사 결정을 내렸었습니다. 그래서 존은 빠르게 몇 명의 산업 리더들이 있는 팀을

모아 말했습니다. “회사 방향의 변화를 감안할 때, 우리는 이러한 주요 서비스에 집중하기 시작할 것입니다.”

the right one despite how it might look from his limited view. Within the first ninety days, John not only saw no negative effects, but his team started achieving their greatest successes ever.

Mike, another agent, did not fare so well. Mike kept focusing on the many reasons why the company’s decisions were wrong. He could not understand why the company would make these changes. He spent the next thirty days telling anyone who would listen, including his team, why this decision was wrong. He and his team attempted to keep moving forward, despite their feelings towards the new direction. Mike would say, “All we can do is our best.”

Worse than that, every time something went wrong or sales slowed down, Mike would blame it on the company’s decision; therefore, so did his team. In the next ninety days, Mike’s team struggled just like Mike “knew they would.” By focusing on the past –why something happened or why the company made the wrong change –Mike was unable to focus on the future and adapt to the new direction, causing his team much pain and bad results. Now Mike says, “We are down because of what the company did.”

Both leaders are great people and know their business very well. The difference between John’s success and Mike’s failure was merely their mindset. John’s path was not easier or based on where he lived, although Mike will disagree. John’s business was at risk, the same as Mike’s, but John decided to focus on what his team will do versus why a decision was made, or even what others were doing. By focusing on their actions and plans, John’s team was motivated and saw this change as a chance to win; and they did. The others were looking back, getting discouraged and frustrated with the past. This focus became the predictor of their future. Their mindset determined their lack of success – not the changes the company made. The hardest part is being able to see the power of perspective during a change or event. That is why one’s mindset is more important than the process.

지금까지 거두었던 성공보다 더 큰 성공을 달성하기 시작했습니다.

또 다른 한 명의 에이전트인 마이크는 지금까지는 잘 해오지 못했습니다.

마이크는 회사의 결정이 잘못된 이유에 대해서 계속 집중했습니다. 마이크는 회사가 왜 이러한 변화를 해야 하는지 이해할 수 없었습니다. 마이크는 30일 동안 자신의 팀을 포함한 모든 사람들에게 왜 이 결정이 잘못된 것인지를 말했습니다. 그와 그의 팀은 새로운 방향으로 나아가는 것을 이해하지 못했으나 회사의 방침에 따라 일을 했습니다. 마이크는 “

우리가 할 수 있는 것은 최선을 다하는 것 “이라고 말할 것입니다. 그보다 더 나쁜 것은, 무언가 잘못되었거나 판매가 줄어들 때마다 마이크는 회사의 결정에 대해 비난 할 것이고 그의 팀도 마찬가지 였습니다. 마이크의 팀은 90일 동안 “그럴줄 알았어” 라는 어려움을 겪었습니다. 과거에 집착함으로써 왜 회사가 잘못된 변화를 일으켰는지에 대해 마이크는 미래에 집중하여 새로운 방향에 적응할 수 없었고 이 결과로

리더 모두 훌륭한 사람들이고 사업을 잘 알고 있습니다. 존의 성공과 마이크의 실패

사이의 차이점은

단순한 사고방식의 차이입니다.

“What they did or did not do yesterday does not matter, because today we will win!”

마이크가 동의하지 않을 수도 있으나 존의 진행 방향은 더 쉽지 않았으며 존이 살았던 곳을 기반으로 두지 않았었습니다. 존의 사업은 위험이 있었으며 마이크도 동일한 위험이 있었습니다. 하지만 존은 왜 결정이 내려졌는지와 다른 사람들이 무엇을 하는지에 대해서는 관심을 가지지 않았습니다. 행동과 계획에 집중함으로써 존의 팀은 동기를 부여받았고 이 변화가 승리를 이룰 수 있는 기회라는 것을 보았고, 승리했습니다. 다른 사람들은 과거를 보고 실망하며 과거를 두려워하였습니다. 이러한 초점이 그들 미래의 예측자가 되었습니다. 그들의 사고방식으로 인하여 성공의 기회를 날려버렸습니다 – 회사가 결정한 변화가 아닙니다. 가장 어려운 부분은 변화 또는 이벤트 동안에 먼 미래를 볼 수 있는 능력입니다. 이것이 프로세스보다 사람의 사고방식이 더 중요한 이유 입니다.

A person must have the “we will” mindset as part of their culture and everyday life. With this mindset, they will not have to worry about dealing with change, regardless of whether it is the company they work for changing, the competition, or the economy, because the decisions and changes that happen in the past are not important to their success. The only thing that is important to their success is what they will do about it. Those who look at the future with a positive long-term outlook, despite the amount of shortterm pain, will always win. Moving forward is not enough. They must move forward with a blinded belief and a committed and excited focus to welcome the obstacles because on the other side is victory.

“What they did or did not do yesterday does not matter, because today we will win!”

사람은 항상 “우리가 할 것”이라는 사고방식을 가지고 매일을 살아가야 합니다. 이 사고방식을 가지고 있으면, 근무하는 회사의 변화, 경쟁 또는 경제가 변화하는 것에 대하여 걱정하지 않을 것입니다. 왜냐하면 과거에 벌어진 의사결정 및 변화는 미래의 성공에 중요하지 않기 때문입니다. 성공에서 유일하게 중요한 것은 변화에 대해서 무엇을 할 것이냐는 것 입니다. 긍정적인 마인드로 장기적인 관점으로 바라보는 사람들은 단기적인 고통이 있음에도 불구하고 항상 승리할 것 입니다. 앞으로 전진하는 것만으로는 충분하지 않습니다. 그들은 맹목적인 신념과 헌신 그리고 집중으로 장애물을 개의치 않고 앞으로 전진해야 합니다. 왜냐하면 이렇게 하면 성공하기 때문입니다. “과거에 어떤일을 했고 하지 않았던 것은 문제가 되지 않습니다. 왜냐하면 오늘 우리는 승리할 것이니까요!”

The Versatile Black Gold Line

One of the most frequently asked questions Hot Tools receives is: “Does this appliance come in dual voltage?” Our new Black Gold line is the answer. Universal dual voltage is just one of the state-of-the-art features in these hairstyling tools. For stylists who are looking for the latest and greatest in the industry, Black Gold appliances are a must-have. That’s why the New York Fashion Week stylists who first used these tools immediately asked for more for their European styling teams.

Another popular question is: “How hot do these styling irons get?” Hot Tools expanded the boundaries with temperatures up to 455 degrees (F). The patented Pulse Technology maintains a constant, uninterrupted heat, so you’ll never find uneven heat or cool spots along the barrels. Temperatures remain constant from one end to the other. The even heat distribution capability of the Hot Tools coveted 24k gold surfaces is also found in Black Gold.

Titanium gives our styling surfaces a durable finish that is resistant to corrosion from styling products; and the Micro Shine finish minimizes friction, which allows hair to glide quickly over the surface to help reduce damage. With every stylist and salon guest wanting shiny, healthy looking hair, these styling surfaces make a huge difference in the final results.

The sleek design and shimmering black surfaces of Black Gold tools boldly convey their superior quality and instill confidence in a stylist’s work. Stylists with these modern tools set themselves apart as professionals pursuing excellence in their craft. Detra Smith, artistic director for Hot Tools, explains, “To be the best, it is important to use the best. In today’s ever-changing beauty industry, we must do everything it takes to stay ahead.”

With Marcel Waving making a strong comeback in hair fashion, Smith is

Meet Terri

especially thrilled about the two Marcel irons in the Black Gold line. She says: “Platform artists are teaching from stages all over the country about the importance of using Marcel irons.” Master stylists are trained to use a Marcel iron for performance that can’t be matched by standard spring irons. Reputable styling product companies select Hot Tools Marcel irons because they are tried-and-true in salons. While our Black Gold technology and surfaces offer a superb option, we still expect our traditional 24k gold curling irons to remain popular.

The Direct Ion Technology in our blow dryers is the best in the industry. This technology fragments water molecules, causing hair to dry faster. This means less heat on hair for a healthier cuticle and shinier results. With either AC or DC options in Black Gold dryer motors, the purpose and performance of the dryers also come into play. If the dryer is to be used at a stylist’s station all day every day, an AC motor is recommended. But if the dryer is to be kept in a travel kit or used at home, the DC motor might be a better fit. So you can’t go wrong with Black Gold because both AC and DC units are well-designed, lightweight, dependable dryers.

Master stylists can stay ahead of the game by educating themselves on all the features of the Black Gold line. But don’t forget, greatness is not achieved overnight. As the beauty industry changes, savvy stylists evolve and adapt so they always remain relevant. Understanding and incorporating the latest, most innovative tools and products is key to their success.

Watch for Hot Tools Black Gold at upcoming shows and promotional events. Wherever you find the top stylists, you’ll also find the tools they use for success. Technology changes daily. With Black Gold appliances, smart stylists can change with it. Beauty

Notes From The Natural Nation

by Shannon Kwit

Shave or Not to Shave? That is the Question! ? ? ?

Now that it’s November, you may notice more men coming into your establishment sporting facial hair. It’s not just a fashion trend or a way to keep warm. Guys across the nation are letting their beards grow full speed ahead to promote No-Shave November. This annual event allows men to show their support for cancer prevention, education and research. Some start the month with a beard already intact. Others are starting with a fresh face. By the end of the month, the goal is to raise money for an important cause while striving for the bushiest beard possible.

As a savvy OTC retailer, help your bearded patrons make the most of this noble venture. With winter right around the corner, they’ll need special products more than ever. Cold weather leaves the face especially prone to dryness, flakiness and irritation, even under all that growth. Luckily, there’s Beard Guyz® — a line created just for facial hair care! Each product in their line has an abundance of handpicked moisturizers, conditioners and extracts to give whiskers a boost during growing season.

Beards come in all shapes and sizes. Show off your knowledge when it comes to the fine

art of facial hair. Does your customer have scruff? Point out Beard Guyz Beard Butter to help soften the shorter hairs and soothe surrounding skin. If you see a longer beard that might be in need of some taming, recommend Beard Guyz Beard Balm. Are they looking to get in the habit of keeping their beard clean and moisturized? Send them toward Beard Guyz Daily Wash and Deep Conditioner. No matter what, though, your customer is going to need a product that leaves hair soft, and the skin underneath smooth and supple. Tell them to try Beard Guyz Beard Oil. It’s the perfect item for everyday upkeep.

Even though your customers are participating in No-Shave November, don’t forget to suggest ways to keep their facial hair neat and trim. That’s where Van Der Hagen® comes in. Van Der Hagen is bringing old-school back in style with a line of traditional wet shaving products. Your customers deserve a close, smooth shave that goes above and beyond for their skin. Let them know they can line and sculpt their growing facial hair with the Van Der Hagen Traditional Safety Razor. It’s an expert tool, complete with a grooved handle for a no-slip grip and a butterfly head that helps beginners replace blades without a hitch. It gives a superb shave, too. In fact, using a single blade

while shaving helps reduce ingrown hairs and razor bumps. The technique is cool and easy to learn, and once they get the hang of it your customers will be hooked.

Step it up a notch and steer customers toward Van Der Hagen’s variety of shave preparations. Shaving is serious business, and it needs to be done right. Most shaving ailments stem from skin sensitivity. Van Der Hagen Shave Oil has a blend of moisturizing oils that keeps skin slick for a better razor glide. Adding another preparation on top, like rich Van Der Hagen Shave Butter or creamy lather from Van Der Hagen Shave Soap, makes for an exceptional shave that leaves skin baby-bottom smooth.

When No-Shave November ends, men will have to decide if they want to keep their newfound facial hair. Now they can choose from one of two great brands to help them with that next step. Even better, in 2018, both Van Der Hagen and Beard Guyz are introducing lines with 100% natural products. New formulations and new products mean better care for shavers and beard growers alike. Whether your customers shave or not, you’re leaving them in good hands with Van Der Hagen and Beard Guyz.

The Best Nail Season Ever: Nail Art that Does Not Disappoint

Year over year and season after season change is inevitable. Each season creates an evolution through energy, mood, beauty, fashion and for the innovators – seasonal style updates are a must. With nails being an extension of a woman’s look, of course, nails aren’t excluded from the timely seasonal changes that compliment and accessorize a woman’s style, holistically. Therefore, it is no surprise that nail manufacturers are constantly pointing their fingers forward to best serve their nail industry audiences, nail technicians and nail enthusiasts. With nail service spends upwards of $8

“There’s a nail art look for everyone, the colors are rich, from rocking metallics, bold chromes and lush earth tones –they’re all trending.”

~Mimi Wilson

billion in the United States (Nails Magazine, 2015), prospects for DIY and nail art are in abundance - great news for OTC stores. At Spring/Summer New York Fashion Week 2017 designers used the nails to create the ultimate accessories for their Spring/Summer 2018 collections. From conservative nudes to liberal iridescent chromes; nail art, decals, shapes and colors were in high season on the runway for the upcoming season. Proof that for nail enthusiasts and the OTC stores, this season may be the best ever.

The options are limitless, the designs boundless - regardless of career or style preference. This season fosters an opportunity to let your individual style shine through. For OTC stores, this translates to possibly your best season ever to expand nail inventory, create style guides to educate customers on what’s trending and how to incorporate it into their nail routine. The creativity options for nail art, style, and wear are infinite.

Wear

Nail polish with long-lasting wear has become a focal point over the last two decades. Gel nail polish wins as the tool for the longest wear, hands down. With most gel nail manufacturers boasting two (2) weeks of wear before chipping, you can’t go wrong. The great news for the OTC stores is there are many new gel nail polish shades and manufacturers that don’t require the UV gel light, the final step in sealing in the application. This provides the opportunity for athome gel nails, and today’s products are equally as effective as salon gel polishes.

Care

Applying a cuticle oil is essential to avoid dry, cuticles and nails, but Mimi Wilson, a Los Angeles nail tech, reminds us in addition to getting a regular manicure and pedicure, healthy nails are an “inside job.” “Drinking adequate amounts of water, 4-8 glasses per day, will help support maintaining healthy nails,” says Wilson.

Art/Style

Is nail art is your fetish? This season you won’t be disappointed. The color palette and designs are never-ending; feminine nudes, edgy metallics, luxurious shellacs, rich mattes, bold black accents, gems, decals, bedazzles, mod color blocking, artful graphics, attachments, florals and neutrals.

“There is literally something for every woman from every walk of life, career choice and social scene - to express her sense of self and style” explains Sophia White, a New York nail tech.

For the nail enthusiast that delights in nail art, individual style and longlasting color, this is the season for you. Nail art and design have never been this creative and plentiful. The sky is the limit and the options are lavish. OTC stores that have options and education guides will see their best seasons ever.

“There is always a way to express your personal style with nail art, from simplistic to avant-garde. You’d be surprised the type of conversations you’ll start from a nail design - a great way to make new acquaintances.”

~Sophia White

OTC Beauty Magazine discovered the inside scoop from two amazing nail technicians.

Mimi Wilson | Celebrity Nail Artist in Los Angeles

Mimi enjoys the creativity of nails. She loves taking someone’s idea and making it come to life on their nails. For the conservative woman, Mimi gravitates towards using one solid color and perhaps a gem or nail art [design] that is simplistic. “Sometimes I have a client that wants to go from day to night, I might keep the solid base color and add a pattern, multiple gems or a more extravagant artful design.”

Sophia White | Nail Technician & Designer, owner of Nailed It Studio in New York

Sophia is a nail designer, she strikes the perfect balance of simple and sophisticated with a modern edge. “Punching a nail art design up or toning it down is optional. I seek to understand the lifestyle personality and style of my clients, I like to give them what they want.”

Acrylic Dipping Powders

The nail care market has evolved into something beyond the imagination of most. The only limit is creativity. While new innovations in nail care are emerging every few years, the basic manicure dates back centuries. From Cleopatra in ancient Egypt to popular Hollywood film stars in the early 20th century, it’s easy to trace back nail care history and discover the different trends, designs and styles that took the industry by storm.

This year, there’s a trend that has been plastered all over social media –acrylic dipping powder. But dipping powder is nothing new. It’s actually been around since the 1980s. The system is essentially composed of three parts that require a base coat/top coat (resins), an activator, and a dipping powder. Once the base coat is applied, the nail is dipped in powder and the process is repeated depending on how many coats the customer wants. The final product is a smooth, glossy finish once the activator and top coat are applied.

There are other brands who have their own version of dipping powder, but according to Miriam, the ProDip base coat is calcium and vitamin E enriched. “It helps the nails grow stronger underneath while protecting them with rich color.” ProDip powders are also “ultra-smooth” and “of the highest quality”, allowing a smooth, bubble-free appearance.

Not only can dipping powder be used on nail enhancements, but they can also be used on natural nails. “Acrylic powder is not heavy and it looks natural,” said Mimi Ho, manager of Ellenwood Spa & Nails in Ellenwood, Georgia.

Share of the Global Professional Nail Care Market by Product Category, 2016

Gels Nail polishes Long-wear nail polishes Nail enhancements Care products

This system is popular with consumers for a variety of reasons. Unlike gel polishes, dipping powder dries instantly and a UV lamp is not needed. The application process also takes less time to do than traditional acrylics. “Dipping powder systems have become popular because they’re fast and they don’t damage natural nails. They’re also odorless so people with sensitivities can get this service done without any problems,” said Miriam Cruz, associate brand manager at SuperNail.

LONG-WEAR NAIL POLISHES GROWTH, 2016

SuperNail carries their own brand of acrylic dipping powder called ProDip. The line has 72 different shades, 42 of which will launch in December.

These benefits don’t necessarily mean that acrylic dipping powder is better than traditional acrylics, press-ons or other long-wear polishes. “It is hard to compare. They all serve a different purpose and are suited for different types of clients,” Cruz said. She notes that one advantage traditional acrylics have over the dipping powder is the ability to do sculpted nails and create intricate 3D nail designs.

“My customers use gel polish over the dipping powder,” Ho said. This practice is fairly common and gives customers a larger range of color options to pick from, as some dipping powder brands have limited selections.

Wilmington, North Carolina-based nail technician Chaquetta Fowler said there have been a few qualms with dipping powder. “Due to some consumer concerns about sanitation and the use of the dipping system, I believe that the dipping powder service will maintain some popularity, but will not reach

that of the traditional acrylic/gel nail services,” she said. But while some choose to avoid the product all-together, others opt to the pouring method. This is essentially pouring the powder over the nail instead of dipping it to achieve the desired look.

Even with this retro system making a comeback in a shiny new case, traditional acrylic lovers will remain loyal to that product. “The traditional acrylic loyalist will forever be that - they love the strength and length that they get from acrylics, so it is difficult to sway them away from that,” Cruz said. On the other hand, there are customers who have had a negative experience with traditional acrylics, be it an unskilled technician or they did not care for the maintenance. These customers “will be easier to persuade to

MARKET OVERVIEW

The global professional nail care market enjoys another year of dynamic growth.

Hot Trends:

• Long-wear nail polish continues to trend big

• Dipping powder systems make a comeback

• Natural formulations are on the rise

• Multi-functional nail products are here to stay

• Nail salons exclusive to men open doors

try dipping powders and are more likely to enjoy the service since it’s easier and faster to apply than traditional acrylics.”

So, what does this mean for OTC retailers who sell regular nail lacquers, press-ons and traditional acrylic systems? There is no need to fret. This trend, like most others, will eventually level out. Customers who have been loyal to gel polishes will remain loyal to gel polishes. Customers who have been loyal to press-ons will remain loyal to press-ons. Acrylic dipping powder cannot replace the many benefits of these different products. But it is refreshing to see something new brought into the nail care industry and customers are sure to enjoy it while it lasts.

Movember Moustache Movement CLIPPER TIPS

by Kenny Duncan

As November rolls around, Movember – an event promoting the growth of moustaches to raise awareness of men’s health issues including prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men’s suicide –is the perfect time to highlight the tools needed to maintain that facial hair.

The Tools

A clipper is recommended for gentlemen who desire to keep their growing moustaches under control. Two clippers ideal for taming wild moustaches include the Andis Envy or the new Andis Headstyler. Both tools feature attachment combs that can help any at-home groomer easily maintain a consistent length of moustache.

A trimmer comes into play for shaping the outlines of the moustache – especially the area above the upper lip. For the at-home user wanting a cord/cordless product, I recommend the new Andis MultiTrim or the EasyTrim 2 trimmers. The MultiTrim features attachment combs that allow users to groom hair to multiple lengths. The EasyTrim features multiple snapon blades, including a circular blade designed to keep nose hairs from growing into the moustache. For a higher end professional corded trimmer, the T-Outliner GTX is a good choice as it includes four attachment combs for thinning.

The ‘Stache

Moustache shapes vary, but any of these tools could be used to create the three basic chevron, pyramid and pencil-thin shapes. The chevron moustache made famous by Tom Selleck is still popular amongst older men, while the pyramid also remains popular – the legendary hip hop artist, Nas, has worn this shape for years.

There are a couple mustaches shapes I never want to see again, such as the horseshoe moustache; it should only be worn by wrestlers like Hulk Hogan. The horseshoe shape is created by shaving the bottom of the chin bald while maintaining the moustache and side bars of the goatee. The walrus is my all-time least favorite moustache shape, because it looks untouched and untidy…think extra-long whiskers on a human. Both of these moustache shapes could be improved with a good trimmer.

Remember, men often keep their facial hair after Movember so now is the perfect time to create a focus on clippers and trimmers in-store. For more information on clippers and trimmers, visit andis.com.

THERAPY TRENDS

Brand Loyalty Linked to Key Ingredients

by Elayne McClaine

Most brand personas are evident in their logo, packaging, fragrance and key ingredient story. If the manufacturer is consistent, the mere mention of the brand name will signal what consumers expect of and attribute to the product performance. If the brand has a heritage of utilizing botanicals, herbal or organic ingredients, the consumer will rely on that messaging. They will connect healthy and holistic benefits to the formula. Such signals develop brand loyalty.

The consumer then expects to see the product displayed and promoted as ‘natural.’ If the brand is green or environmentally responsible, consumers will presume the lack of harsh chemicals or non-biodegradable ingredients. Most brands launch new products and line extensions relying on the heritage of the ingredient story. Consumers will develop an affinity for the brand based on the promise that has been communicated to them.

The beauty industry has welcomed brands with the ingredient stories built into the brand name. Such branding creates the environment for communicating the benefits of the product. The mere mention of an oil in the relaxer formula infers natural conditioning and protection. As well, it signals to the store managers the differentiating features of the brand. Caustic chemicals have been differentiated from the use of exotic oils in the branding. Consumers respond and match their expectations to the promise of such ingredients. In other cases, the mention of organic oils, butters and teas communicate the expected benefits as well as the product form.

An ingredient story as the brand identity has been a trend for years. Unique ingredients lend heritage and personality to the brand. Ingredients from Africa, Asia or the Caribbean create a more customized relationship with consumers. Once a consumer has developed a branding relationship, it can translate into generations of trust and loyalty.

Beautycounter Launches Coalition To Address Lack Of US Cosmetic Safety Laws

The Counteract Coalition brings together CEOs from more than a dozen beauty companies to demand change in Washington, D.C.

LOS ANGELES/PRNewswire/ -- Counter Brands, LLC – parent company of Beautycounter, the leader in safer skin care and cleaner cosmetics – today announced the Counteract Coalition, a collaboration of 15 beauty brands in the safer, natural beauty space that is focused on transforming the nation’s outdated cosmetic safety laws and lack of industry regulation. The laws that govern the $62 billion beauty industry are regulated by 1.5 pages of legislation that date back to 1938. Unlike in Europe and Canada, the substances used in beauty products sold in the US do not require vetting for safety. While nearly 1,400 ingredients are banned from personal care products in Europe, only 30 are banned in the US. Additionally, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has no recall authority and there is no industry-standard requirement for ingredient screening or monitoring.

The Counteract Coalition is redefining the next generation of the beauty industry – one that is built on transparency, cooperation and a sense of purpose. Coalition members represent the fastest growing portion of the consumer beauty marketplace and believe that to protect consumers, major regulatory change is needed. To date, the Coalition includes brands and CEOs from the following companies: Beautycounter, Annamarie Skin Care, Biossance, côte, Goddess Garden, Follain, OSEA, Peet Rivko, Rahua, Seventh Generation, Silk Therapeutics, SW Basics, tenoverten, Vapour Organic Beauty and Vintner’s Daughter.

This week, coalition members have come to Washington, D.C. to demand more health protective laws governing the industry, and are meeting with lawmakers to ask for a hearing on the Personal Care Products Safety Act (S. 1113).

Beautycounter Founder & CEO Gregg Renfrew: “Beautycounter has led the charge to transform our nation’s outdated cosmetic safety laws since we were founded. We know we can’t do it alone, and are proud to work alongside other leaders in the rapidly growing safer and natural personal care industry to demand change in Washington, D.C.”

“Seventh Generation has long believed in the power of business to transform commerce and we’re proud to be standing shoulderto-shoulder with Beautycounter and others to demand change to our country’s outdated regulations that are currently designed to ‘protect’ trade secrets and profit over human health,” said John

Replogle, CEO of Seventh Generation.

Peet Rivko Founder & CEO Johanna Peet: “When we were approached to join the Counteract Coalition, it was a no-brainer. I started Peet Rivko out of the belief that we all deserve clean, safe and non-toxic skincare products. The time for this type of smart regulation is long overdue, and as an independent brand we will use whatever platform we have to speak up for meaningful change.”

Mary Lennon, Founder of côte nail shop: “côte is honored and excited to be participating in this historic beauty coalition. From its beginning, côte has stood for safe and performance-driven nail products. We are thrilled to have this opportunity to join forces with like-minded companies to focus attention on the cleaner safer beauty movement.”

The Personal Care Products Safety Act (S.1113) is championed by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and would fix fundamental flaws and loopholes in existing regulations on personal care products and cosmetics. By updating federal regulations, the Counteract Coalition believes that consumers will be better protected from harmful ingredients commonly used in personal care products, and businesses will have access to safety information, allowing them to bring products to market faster.

Gregg Renfrew notes, “Legislative change that will truly protect American families from harmful chemicals in personal care products will happen when the safer and natural beauty industry shows it is possible.”

The Santa Monica, CA-based brand drives a national movement for improved transparency and accountability in the beauty industry, including advocacy to update federal regulations that have stood largely unchanged since 1938.

Canfield Beauty Poised to Reinvent Retail Beauty Experience

PARSIPPANY, NEW JERSEY /PRNewswire/ -- Canfield Beauty, a new initiative of Canfield Scientific, the global leader in skin imaging systems, services and products, launched today, unveiling NEXA®, a handheld mobile imaging device that alone or with its complementary booth system empowers beauty brands to improve the customer experience, enhance their level of service and create an engaged and loyal following through the use of mobile, quality skin imaging technology.

“Canfield Beauty is the natural next step in leveraging our expertise to benefit a new customer segment,” said president Doug Canfield. “And, NEXA will provide the beauty industry with the tools to create a higher level of customer interaction and service.”

Designed specifically for retail consultations, NEXA provides beauty consultants and beauty executives with the versatility needed to both initially engage customers and cultivate long-term customer relationships with the connected consumer.

“We listened to beauty companies looking to attract business to their retail store locations and developed a solution that would reinvent the in-store consultation,” said product management director Diana Ordonez. “Offering anytime, anywhere omnichannel imaging solutions, the NEXA platform is the first of its kind.”

“The NEXA allows for instant yet meaningful consultations in our wellbeing workshop stores and at counter,” said philosophy’s vice president of Global Education and Events, Catherine Barber. “philosophy has been working with Canfield for more than seven years now, and the launch of NEXA has enabled us to connect with our customers in yet another new way. We’re also able to reconnect with our clients when their results and routine are emailed to them directly, extending the brand conversation beyond the consultation.”

To better educate and share valuable skin health information with today’s consumer, Canfield Beauty developed a solution for the beauty retail industry that provides high-quality, meaningful skin images. As a result, NEXA assesses up to eight unique skin features, including wrinkles, pores, texture, subsurface red areas and brown spots. And, NEXA’s patented technology enables better, more standardized lighting, providing an image quality that far exceeds today’s selfie-based applications and programs.

“Quality images lead to a better quality assessment,” added Ordonez. “If you can see the real story of your skin, its strengths and its weaknesses, you have a much better chance of meeting your skin health goals.”

The cloud-based solution generates the big data that helps users understand their customer base as a whole and positively impact business decisions. It provides retailers with access to data across customers, stores or regions for a complete brand performance analysis.

“By providing more meaningful and engaging consultations in our brick and mortar stores and then extending the consultation with easy at-home access, our customer connections are powerful and omnichannel,” said Jacqueline Flam Stokes, Vice President of Retail & Salon for Pierre Fabre overseeing Eau Thermale Avène. “And, the quality of the skin feature assessment is a perfect complement to our consultant’s expertise. As a worldwide skin care leader with a vast portfolio of products, it was critical for Avène to find the right diagnostic company to collaborate with to enhance the customer experience in-store.”

The new brand continues to assess the current and future needs of its customers, and is already planning for future products and services. “Brick and mortar retail stores know that they need to change to better meet the needs and shopping styles of today’s consumers,” added Ordonez. “Canfield Beauty is focused on helping them do just that, providing high-quality innovative tools that evolve with and for the next generation retail consultation.”

Making History: Wahl Professional Names Winners of the First Online Barber Battle

STERLING, ILLINOIS - Wahl Professional has been leading the barbering industry for nearly a century, with game-changing tools synonymous with quality.

Now, Wahl is transforming the industry’s barber battle events by crowning the top 3 winners of a first-of-its-kind online battle.

And on Tuesday, September 19th, they changed the life of Benny Machado (@mr_executive_barber) when Wahl Education and Artistic Team (W.E.A.T.) member Rick Morin surprised him as the Wahl Online Barber Battle Grand Prize Winner at his barbershop in Newport News, Virginia.

“First of all, I was in expectation that I was going to service a new client who was eager to get a cut, but when I saw Rick Morin, I came to the conclusion that I was the winner,” said Benny Machado. “Needless to say, I was extremely excited.”

Social media played a large role in spreading the word of the digital battlefield, with entrants hearing about it on Twitter, Facebook, and particularly, Instagram.

Benny’s historic win and highlights from his video were broadcast to Wahl Professional’s Instagram and Facebook followers on Friday, September 22nd, garnering thousands of views for the conclusion of the historic competition.

“An online battle has not been done by any other clipper company,” said Aaron Flick, Senior Marketing Associate, Professional Division, Wahl Clipper Corporation. “This was an opportunity to bring artists from across the country into one competition. And we received a lot of high-quality work from many talented artists.”

Benny took home more than the full 5-Star line of clippers and trimmers from Wahl Professional. Most importantly, as Grand Prize winner, he will have an honorary oneyear position on the highly coveted W.E.A.T. beginning in January 2018.

In fact, the grand prize was a common reason for entrants. “I chose to participate in this battle because I have the desire of becoming an educator and inspiring others,” Machado said. “Benny will have the same privileges and exposure as if he were a permanent member of the team,” said Laura VanderMoere, Global Director of Education for Wahl Professional. “He’ll represent Wahl as an industry influencer and role model for future students and licensed professionals. He will be included in video shoots, marketing campaigns, and educational events. We’ll also ask Benny to present at our three major shows next year, including: International Salon & Spa Expo, America’s Beauty Show and Premiere Orlando.”

place Jose Montejano (@cant_be_faded) won the 5-Star Barber Combo from Wahl Professional.

The accomplishments of Rosario and Montejano were announced on Wahl Professional’s social media channels and Ambassador Program. Short vignettes from their submission videos accompanied the announcements to cement their worthiness of the honor.

All three winners received a Wahl prize pack, a Cordless Magic Clip skateboard, and an exclusive commemorative clipper to cement their status within the barbering industry.

Preparing for Battle

Each contestant was allowed 15 minutes to create a video showcasing their mastery of three cuts: a Classic Pompadour, Bald Fade and a Creative Cut that was entirely up to the barber or stylist’s vision.

The battle also allowed each entrant to showcase what they’re most known for. Rosario deftly demonstrated his famous skin fade. Montejano perfected the Pixie. And Machado created an over-the-top custom cut.

“I pushed it to the limit,” said Andrew Rosario. “I was editing my video up until just a couple of hours before the deadline.”

Judges used an in-depth scoring system, awarding points on criteria including styling techniques, precision of blend, difficulty of the cut, and the overall look. Significant consideration was given when determining how online submissions should be scored.

Second-place winner Andrew Rosario (@andyfademaster) received three Wahl clippers and three Wahl trimmers, while third-

“As the founder of the largest barber event in Texas (TX Barber Expo), I wanted to make sure the judging system was the same as if it had been a live or in-person battle,” said Rick Morin. What can future entrants learn from those who have already done it? That depends on who you ask.

“I know it sounds simple, but you won’t have the opportunity if you don’t enter,” said Morin. Machado echoes this sentiment.

“Through this process, I have learned that you should never take for granted the opportunities presented to you,” he said.

Montejano puts it a little simpler. “Find good models and don’t hold back,” he said.

The winning masterpieces can be seen in motion at wahlbarberbattle.com.

Artists who want their chance to compete for the ultimate barber bragging rights are encouraged to register for the Wahl Ambassador Program at wahlpro.com, as details for the next competition are expected to be released early in 2018.

Dry Shampoo Market to Reach US$4,110.6 Mn by 2022, Globally: Transparency Market Research

Global Dry Shampoo Market Gaining Traction to Serve Needs of Fashion-conscious Consumers

ALBANY, New York/PRNewswire/ -- The global dry shampoo market is gaining from a number of favorable factors. Firstly, dry shampoo has aroused the interest of the growing working-class population, globally, who are looking for hair products that do not require much time for application suitable for their hectic lifestyle. This population group requires frequent hair washes as they are exposed to dirt and pollution while traveling to and from the workplace. Dry shampoo is best suited in this scenario, as frequent use of regular shampoo leads to loss of strength and sheen of hair. The ease of use as it does not require water to reduce greasing from the scalp and hair is also a significant factor boosting the demand for dry shampoo. According to estimates presented by a report by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global dry shampoo market will expand at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2017 and 2022 vis-à-vis revenue. Expanding at this pace, the market is likely to become US$4,110.6 mn by 2022-end from its estimated worth of US$3,043.5 mn in 2017.

Apart from this, the changing consumer preference for natural and organic hair care products is also stoking growth of dry shampoo market. To cater to this, a number of hair care brands have introduced natural and organic variants of dry shampoo, which are attracting a large number of consumers. These variants are not only free of harsh chemicals, which are associated with loss of luster and strength of hair, but also help improve hair health through nourishing the scalp. Further, rising hair fall concerns and the rising prevalence of scalp related diseases are increasingly leading consumes opt for natural and herbal hair care solutions.

The influence of the fashion industry leading individuals to adopt hair care solutions endorsed by models and hair stylists has also been boosting the growth of the dry shampoo industry. The advent of new formula based hair care products briefly gained the interest of models and hair stylists for increasing hair volume and providing rich hair texture. However, excessive use of chemicalbased hair styling solutions and frequent shampooing have been associated with severe scalp issues, with baldness being one of them. This has led models and hair stylists to switch to dry shampoo that substitutes chemical-based products for hair styling needs.

Global Dry Shampoo Market: Key Insights

Among the key form type segments, spray form is estimated to hold the leading 66.2% of market share in 2017. In absolute numbers, the spray form segment is estimated to be valued at US$2,016.3 mn in 2017. The form spray segment is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.3% between 2017 and 2022, for the segment to touch a revenue valuation of US$2,738.4 mn by the end of 2022.

The form spray type segment is estimated to display the leading year on year absolute growth of US$144.4 mn over the course of the forecast period from 2017 to 2022.

Taking readers through every step of the curl experience, chapters include:

Before natural hair blogs and influencers, before YouTube and Facebook there was NaturallyCurly.com. Challenged by a lifetime of curl frustration in a straighthaired world, three curly journalists created the web site to provide a curly haven.

would become a global media empire, reaching more than 16 million people per month and finding its place at the center of a grass-roots movement, changing the way society viewed curls, coils and waves. In her new book, “The Curl Revolution: Inspiring Stories and Practical Advice from the NaturallyCurly Community,” this transformation is celebrated. Breyer leverages NaturallyCurly’s reputation as a pioneer in the curly world – along with her relationships with key brands, stylists and influencers – to provide the most comprehensive book to date about curly hair. Rather than focusing on one brand, one method or one ethnicity, The Curl Revolution captures the entire curl landscape.

“I typed ‘curly hair’ into Google in 2001 and NaturallyCurly.com popped up,” recalled Jessica McGuinty, who launched her curl product line Jessicurl on NaturallyCurly’s discussion board 15 years ago. “I thought ‘These are my people!’”

“From day one, our goal was to create a place for people like us—a forum to provide support, tips, and inspiration for other curlies,” said author and NaturallyCurly co-founder Michelle Breyer. “From the outset, we talked in terms of texture, not ethnicity. In short order, the heart of the site became CurlTalk, a discussion forum where curlies could continue the type of conversation that had galvanized us to launch the site.”

At the time, Breyer and her friends did not realize that NaturallyCurly

The book is filled with beautiful imagery by photographer Karston Tannis, featuring influencers like curl icon and Carol’s Daughter founder Lisa Price, media icon Lisa Sugar and singer Jordin Sparks, as well as NaturallyCurly community members. These real women, from teachers and attorneys to social workers, started their curly journeys on NaturallyCurly.

“The texture revolution happened because of the World Wide Web and NaturallyCurly,” says curl expert Anthony Dickey, author of Hair Rules and founder of the eponymous salon and product line. “It spread like wildfire. It allowed people to have a place to speak without interruption—their stories, their pain.”

“When I founded NaturallyCurly’s CurlTalk in 2006, I discovered there was this whole community that didn’t just include black women, but also white women with their own struggles,” Patrice Yursik, founder of the Afrobella natural hair blog. “That was a real eye opener to me. It made me realize this was more of a universal struggle than I thought it was.”

Throughout the book, readers will be inspired by beautiful images and powerful voices from the curl community – from actresses and singers to bartenders and teachers.

The Curl Revolution includes everything a curlie needs to unlock the potential of their natural texture.

Bigelow, the oldest apothecary in the U.S., and Ovation Hair, a provider of high-end hair care products in southern California, are among the many health and beauty providers to graduate from disparate applications and labor-intensive manual data work to gain an edge in a highly competitive market.

Health and beauty is rapidly growing amid strong consumer demand for distinctive skin care, hair care, lip care, oral care and related products, as well as cosmetics, fragrances, deodorants, soaps, shower gels and more. Global sales of health and beauty products are expected to soar 73 percent from 2016 to 2024, from $432 billion to $750 billion, according to Inkwood Research, a Boston-based research firm.1 This growth comes amid industry disruption as emerging and midmarket players develop, manufacture and market products with strong branding appeal as well as organic and eco-friendly attributes.

“Health and beauty companies are laser-focused on product innovation, brand-building and customer intimacy,” said Branden Jenkins, GM of Global Retail, Oracle NetSuite. “They’re channeling the time and cost savings they realize with NetSuite into building the business, rather than wasting resources on manual work and outdated on-premise systems.”

Family-Run Business Stands the Test of Time and Adapts to Market Changes

C.O. Bigelow (www.bigelowchemists.com), the oldest apothecary in the U.S., has grown from its founding in 1838 in New York City to be a global omnichannel retailer of an eclectic, carefully curated array of more than 30,000 products. With an iconic brickand-mortar store and traditional pharmacy occupying the same Greenwich Village space since 1902, the family-run business also operates an ecommerce website and sells to global hotels and airlines that offer Bigelow goods to customers across the globe. Its wholesale channel has grown 20 to 30 percent annually in recent years across more than 1,000 partner stores such as Sephora, Barney’s and Nordstrom. The owner, Ian Ginsberg, doesn’t view his company as disruptive. “We’re the ones who survived the disruption,” he says. “We’re a traditional business surviving in the modern world.” That takes a special kind of business agility, supported by Bigelow’s use of NetSuite. The manufacturer and retailer relies on NetSuite for core functions of financials, reporting, inventory and order management across all channels. Reporting on real-time data has been vital in delivering insights for Bigelow to strengthen its bottom line while gaining agility to compete with both upstart rivals and chain drug stores.

“We’re able to be faster and more nimble because of NetSuite,” said Ginsberg. “The real-time information available in NetSuite is just mind-blowing. Across all our functions, it just saves us so much time and money. We’re able to behave like a big guy in small guy clothes.”

Hair Care Leader Strengthens Hair, Business and Consumer Loyalty

Ovation Hair (www.ovationhair.com), based in Carlsbad, Calif., broke into the hair care market in 2007 with its flagship Cell Therapy product, helping customers grow thicker, stronger hair

with a proprietary blend of proteins, vitamins, botanical extracts and amino acids. Since then, Ovation Hair has grown its lineup to more than 25 products, including shampoos and conditioners, all manufactured in southern California. Starting out by reaching consumers with radio ads after its founding in 2007, Ovation Hair today builds its brand and customer loyalty with email marketing and social media, while expanding its channels to include QVC TV spots, Amazon and distribution through 75 select salons in the U.S. Regular promotions, a loyalty program, subscription replenishment and refer-a-friend rewards have all been instrumental in driving double-digit revenue growth. Ovation Hair is better able to focus on innovation and marketing because NetSuite supplies a unified platform for the company to efficiently run financials, inventory, manufacturing and its ecommerce website. NetSuite serves as the repository for 500,000 contacts reached by email and social marketing, while NetSuite for manufacturing gives Ovation Hair important lot tracking capabilities for raw ingredients and shipped products.

“Having everything under one roof with NetSuite is very efficient and definitely an advantage in a competitive industry,” said Erika Sherwood, Ovation Hair Marketing Manager. “NetSuite has helped us improve our reaction time in updating the website and streamlining processes with our client database, marketing, product information, inventory levels and manufacturing.”

Key Technology Ingredients for Health and Beauty Companies to Grow and Thrive

New and more established health and beauty businesses such as C.O. Bigelow and Ovation Hair are turning to cloud business solutions as they compete with established multinationals such as Procter & Gamble, Unilever, L’Oreal, Estée Lauder and others. In

many cases, product manufacturers are expanding into direct-toconsumer (D2C) sales, over websites and with partners such as Amazon and QVC. The features most important to leading health and beauty companies are focused on:

Customer centricity. Health and beauty product manufacturers and retailers need integrated processes and a 360-degree customer view to deliver a seamless omnichannel experience and personalized customer service.

Cloud-first scale and agility. Health and beauty companies need the ability to rapidly scale all operations, from entering new global markets to expanding channels, product offerings and subscription sales.

Integrated operational efficiency. End-to-end efficiency and visibility are essential for these companies to minimize operational costs and orchestrate processes to deliver an exceptional customer experience at every interaction.

Data-driven decision-making. Rather than relying on outdated, disparate data and guesswork, health and beauty companies running in the cloud can make informed decisions based on realtime information.

NetSuite provides an end-to-end view of business for health and beauty companies such as C.O. Bigelow and Ovation Hair across wholesale distribution and ecommerce channels, as well as company brick-and-mortar locations, to enable seamless, omnichannel experiences for customers.
