It’s time for a united industry voice
More than half of the professional beauty industry are not covered or supported by an industry body. The other half are scattered across industry and non-industry specific associations.
The lack of unison leaves us exposed in the face of challenges with little to no voice when presenting to government. We are not being heard and it’s leaving our industry compromised and fighting many independent battles as opposed to one strong one.
If we are to be recognised for the advanced industry we are, then the time has come for us all to join forces and be heard.
