JO ROBERTSON

12:20, Monday 25 March – NEW! SALON SMART SOAPBOX

With more than 30 years’ experience as a salon owner, session stylist and – latterly – as global head of education for ghd, it’s no wonder Jo Robertson says “the hair industry is in my blood”. Now she’s gone solo with her own business and a blog that sheds light on life as a stylist in a changing world. Having travelled the world teaching hair, been exposed to many brands that have each taught her something, Jo has learnt that to do nothing is moving backwards, that mistakes are learnings and that the future is always changing. “We need to try new things, in order to pass on our experience and gain from that of others. How can you make yourself relevant to your target audience without learning and surrounding yourself with them?” she says. At Salon Smart, Jo will share her views on a specific aspect of industry, and champion the changes that will future-proof your business.

Get the full Salon Smart experience with a Weekend Pass (£295 plus VAT), which includes overnight accommodation, breakfast AND a three-course dinner with wine. A Monday Pass (£100 plus VAT) is for the Monday business programme only.


Salon Smart takes place Sunday 24 and Monday 25 March 2019 at the four-star Park Plaza London Riverbank hotel
