FillerPlex (EBR) is a single step Enzymatic Bond Reconstructor (EBR) with dual process action. A plex treatment working from the OUTSIDE to INSIDE by surrounding the hair fibres with a protective webbing structure to mend broken bonds during a chemical service. Gorgeous golden hues and a silky smooth finish are the key to the ultimate #blondehair by @sisolutions #blondes #highlights #colour #salon #healthyhair #hairjounery #shine #fillerplex #hyluronicacid #hempoil FillerPlex (EBR) penetrates and reconstructs the bond fibres from the outside in, providing elasticity and strength, even after just ONE application! It protects and preserves, keeping the internal structure healthy and resulting in longer lasting colour. The miracle ingredient? Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein pf-Propyl Silanetriol. A revitalising and fortifying protein complex that seeks out damaged bonds, increasing tensile strength, helping hair withstand chemical stresses, and preventing cuticle abrasion. Unlike ‘others’, FillerPlex (EBR) does NOT require any followup maintenance treatments at home and does NOT affect any service processing times or results. What’s in it? Other than the secretly formulated superpowers?

Empowering you the Stylist: LABEL.M is the Supporter of More than 150 Hair Designers World-Wide LABEL.M is a family brand and has always had a strong heritage in fashion, a clear commitment to doing good, respecting the environment, sourcing sustainably and giving back. It’s also the only Official Haircare Product of London Fashion Week since 2013 and an empowering range that now supports more than 150 designers worldwide, used to create hair trends and translate them from catwalks to salons across the globe.

Create and Complete high-performing products are suitable for all hair types. “We have tried and tested these products to perfection in order to develop a range that truly creates strong, beautiful and healthy hair from the inside out. As the Official Product of London Fashion Week for over 30 seasons, these new products have already been used backstage to create the hair of the industry’s leading designers, bringing the biggest catwalk trends, straight to our clients.” Beyond “Clean” Or “Natural” Haircare LABEL.M’s new Cleanse, Condition and Care formulations prioritise biocompatibility. They are crafted with the best botanicals, innovative safe synthetics and exclusive technologies to uniquely bridge the gap between nature and science. We believe in using only ingredients that directly benefit the hair and scalp. The foundation of the high-performing formulations across the five key haircare concerns are two exclusive complexes that protect, strengthen and moisturise. • ENVIROSHIELD PLUS combines naturally derived ingredients that protect against free radicals, UVA and UVB rays and other environmental stresses. • POWER PEPTIDE powerfully blends superior protein extracts and repairing botanicals to elasticize and protect. Curated essential oils, plant and fruit extracts and powerful vitamins build on these foundations with prized complexes exclusive to LABEL.M – Moisture Magnet Complex, Pumpkin Enzyme, Violet Botanical Complex, Supreme Colour Blast Technology, Hydropower Bond and M-Plex Bond Technology – giving unique efficacy. INTRODUCING M-PLEX: A BONDING REVOLUTION The M-Plex Bond Technology breaks new boundaries in hair repair. Colour, heat and texture-enhancing treatments weaken, damage and can break the hair. M-Plex has been formulated to target and mend disulphide bonds in hair strands and protect them from further damage as well as delivering luxurious feeling hair. Hydropower Bond Technology seals the cuticle giving smoother, healthier-looking hair and a glossier shine. A range of plantbased proteins and ultra-nourishing ingredients, including moisture-locking superfoods, strengthen and hydrate. In Afro hair, M-Plex has a frizz-controlling, curl-defining effect. In-Salon - This salon professional hair bond repairing treatment has been formulated for professional colouring, lightening and treatment services. In the initial phase of testing, 71% of salons said M-Plex is superior to their existing treatments and 29% felt M-Plex was on par with their most popular service. Retail Homecare with M-Plex - The Cleanse, Condition and Care regime contains M-Plex to strengthen hair at home, allowing clients to integrate M-Plex technology into their everyday haircare routine. 86% of people who tried our M-Plex Bond Repairing Miracle Mask said it made their hair feel softer and smoother from the first application. Pioneering Sustainability Sustainability is a journey and LABEL.M is committed to its path. LABEL.M is 100% cruelty free, all of its range is recyclable* and it’s among the first few pioneering brands to invest in 100% recyclable pumps. The luxurious soft tactile packaging is made of 30% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. All the botanical ingredients are blended with LABEL.M’s exclusive technologies from sustainable or renewable sources. Available Now! Contact your South African Distributors!

Advantages of a Cruise Ship Contract - earning tax-free dollars while you do something different and exciting and give yourself a financial leap forward! Do you feel like you want to do more, be more, achieve more, and earn more in your hairdressing career? Let 2023 be your year of building your own future. A contract on board ship can enhance your CV, give you sought-after skills that will provide incredible value in your career, broaden your horizons and job opportunities. It’s the most amazing way to see the world and experience destinations you’ve only dreamed of visiting – and getting paid for it, in tax-free dollars, with all your living expenses, food, and accommodation covered. Build your Financial Freedom as a Stylist With a cruise ship contract, your earnings are tax-free under SA’s current tax laws. Because you work out of the country for more than 6 months of the year during your contract, you receive your earnings tax-free. While you’re earning between R20,000 and R40,000 a month onboard, your board, food and transport are all paid for, so the only money you need to spend is on enjoying yourself, sightseeing and shopping, lots of adventures, days off, and treating yourself to clothing or souvenirs. Everything else can be saved and this can end up being a substantial sum. Do You Need a Cash Nest Egg? Working on board ship allows you to earn great money, tax free, and with very few costs. Whether you would like to pay off debt faster, or save up in order to put a deposit down on a house or a car, or equip your own salon, working at sea allows you to achieve your financial goals much more quickly than you would be able to achieve them on land. And don’t forget - your career options after your contract are literally whatever you choose! Completing a cruise ship contract is your passport to your dream job, even if it’s in that top salon where you have always dreamed of working. A cruise ship contract is a huge asset to your CV that is respected by top salons worldwide. In addition, if you love life at sea, after three contracts you can apply to work with London Wellness Academy, move into recruitment, or manage an onboard salon or spa. Andrew Guilfoyle of Scar Hair in CT tells us why he likes to hire cruise ship-experienced stylists “There is a very clear difference in stylists who have worked on board ship, compared to those who have not. The reality is that my ears always prick up when I hear of someone coming off a ship. This is one of the few things I will gravitate towards. Their service is always better. They have worked with a bigger variety of people who have very high expectations. They are good team players who have learned to work well with their colleagues as well as their clients. Cruise ship training means a stylist’s skill in managing hair is outstanding – manageability and handling ofi hair creates a very good foundation for us, and this is important as we are a funkier salon. They learn very fast in all areas and are willing to try anything. It definitely takes a certain kind of person to take the leap and go for this experience, with the great earnings. They are ambitious hairstylists who are already on a very definite career journey. All we can do is keep them with us and continue growing them for as long as we can, as they are huge assets to the salon.” If you want the experience of a lifetime that will make you a sought-after stylist in top salons all over the world, sign up now for your confidential interview.

From Steve Leahy, Managing Director at Kao Corporation “Wishing you joy at Christmas and prosperity in the coming year. Thank you for being such an important part of what we do. It is greatly appreciated!” Kind regards, Steve and the KAO SOUTH AFRICA Team From Craig Hopkins, Education Leader Salon Division, Kao Salon Division | South Africa “The Education Team at Kao Salon Division would like to wish a joyous festive season to all individuals working in salons through this busy time period. Thank you for continuing to support our Academies and your gratitude when we spend time with you in your salons! Looking forward to a fun filled and inspirational 2023!” Kind regards, Craig Hopkins From Kevin Tabilo, National Sales Manager: Salon Division To our KAO Salon Family, This year was the Year of the Revival for us as a company and as people after what has been undoubtedly a very challenging past three years or so. With everything happening in the economy at the moment, globally and locally, we are at least happy to say that for the most part our hairstylists are busy again and starting to come out of the worst of it. Even with everything that we as South Africans put up with daily… load shedding, protest action and more, we are a resilient nation that knows how to make lemonade out of lemons so I foresee a huge resurgence in 2023 and as we already know, the beauty sector is one that has always survived and even thrived during economic recession. There’s nothing like walking out of salon with that beautiful colour or new cut or even just a gorgeous blowwave to give you that confidence to take on the world. So with that being said, I just want to take this opportunity to firstly thank all of our KAO staff, without you our brands would never be able to reach over 1000 professional salons across Southern Africa. Our incredible warehouse team, our admin department, frontline staff and of course our education team that always goes above and beyond to assist our salons. Last but definitely not least I want to thank the Sales Team for the incredible work they have done this year despite trying times, our Sales Representatives and our Two Regional Managers have done an incredible job and as a Management team we couldn’t be more proud, so I thank you. Of course I would be remiss for not wanting to say a huge thank you to our Lead Team for all the support throughout the year. The biggest thank you of course goes to you all in the industry… we couldn’t be where we are without your support. As the Salon Division we are solely responsible for looking after our salons so thank you for being with us this year, for your loyal support and for your unending belief in our two amazing brands, Goldwell and KMS. Without you all working your magic and making people feel beautiful day in and day out we would not have a business. So we know this is a crazy time of the year so enjoy the Festive spirit and we hope you all do get some time off and rest afterwards so that you are all fired up and ready to go in 2023. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly on (011) 3125070. Sending you all our love during the crazy December period, thank you once again for your loyal support in 2022 and we look forward to an even better year in 2023.
