The collection takes as a point of inspiration Xiomara, a brave, powerful, and strong woman. She shows a deified image, very dynamic and with a determined look. All this is reflected in her hair, which stands out for its energy and its high vibration with a magical result. The geometric looks in a turquoise blue combination with white details elevate her image, showing her enormous magnetism.

I have always been the type of entrepreneur that likes to believe that I think a little differently to most. I am not saying that elevates me above anyone, but rather that I start with the end goal in mind and work my way backwards to achieve the result. When I started my training career, salon owners usually asked me why I was ‘qualified’ to teach their teams. My answer was simple. I have made more mistakes than most. Mistakes Allow Growth Making mistakes has allowed me to determine what does not work. It is through failure that the brand has grown from strength to strength and through failure that there are currently 21 branches across all aspects of the Gary Rom brand, with a further 7 planned and confirmed for the rest of the year. Learning, Constant Change and Evolution Every year the entire “engine room” of the brand meets over a period of around 3 days, to ascertain and reassess every part of the process and brand ethos that made us successful the previous year. There are many of the successful processes that we tweak or even change totally, because as you all know the only thing constant is change, and what worked last year will not necessarily make the grade the next. I am proud of the fact that we have been able to evolve as a brand, that we are forward thinkers, that we challenge the boundaries and the proven formulas of prior successes all the time. It is because I have been involved with training concepts my entire life both locally and internationally that I can say with confidence and without reservation that the Gary Rom brand has grown largely due to this age old saying. The old adage that “the more you teach, the more you learn” is indeed true. Welcome to the Gary Rom Team I have learnt more in my lifetime from different individuals, salon owners, artistic directors and apprentices than most. The more I pass it on, the more my life is enriched. The Gary Rom group would love to hear from you as we expand into a new dawn. The entire team lives by the principles of the words above, and we are ready and waiting to welcome you. Interested parties can send their CV to gary@garyrom.co.za

The title of the collection, Mōsō, means illusion. This inspiration reflects the new look of the post-covid generation, that does not understand age or conceit, but shows a huge desire to live, being a daring attitude their best spear, and courage their day to day. Perhaps "mōsō" is that illusion, the desire for a freer and more irreverent world where oneself embraces the essence of humanity, where nothing else fits, without norms or politics... It is a collection that revalues the insurgent, the peaceful, and the human with common sense, like the flag that unites us. Regarding the most personal part of the creation, this work is also the representation, in the world of hairdressing, of that reality that starts from an "illusion" and that has taken shape from the hand of Víctor Alonso, in Espacio Kibo, for five years. He shows his way of seeing and interpreting hairdressing. Stylish and elegant personalized fashion. When executing it, he uses techniques that are part of the working method developed by Víctor Alonso for 30 years at his previous company, Gemis. Disconnections, programmed cuts, and multiple textures are achieved with his own techniques such as "The bite", sliding threads or slices, and a mixture of broken geometries with slight movements or different measures. As for the color, he uses pantones to personalize each color, made with the Instamatic and Color Touch Create lines from Wella. To achieve it, colors were mixed, and matte brown tones are added to incorporate a more "used" or vintage touch.

It’s a lightening formula suitable for all freehand techniques, it doesn’t run or expand and adheres perfectly to the hair. Perfect to create partial lightening without using any support to section the hair and without staining the hair. The Balayage is applied vertically with two distinct tones which are blended mid-way up the hair to give a soft and natural transition from one colour to the other. Balayage has a more natural effect, where an ombre will be a more obvious finish. While the blonde balayage is one of the most popular types of balayages, the balayage highlighting technique also works beautifully on brunettes, red’s, black’s and violets. Blonde Balayage: When your clients would like to be a bit blonder but still want that natural effect, the balayage is the best option and best of all the regrowth won’t be that evident. Brunettes: When a client wants a few lighter tones, to give movement and dimension to a brunette. Dark Hair: Dark hair can have the habit of looking dull or have no movement (dimension), and the best way to lift a coloor and give the colour more dimension and movement is to do a balayage. This follows with your Fashion colours. Maintaining bright colours requires a lot of upkeep, but blending the roots through with balayage means your client can go longer between salon services.

“THEY” is the most important word of the decade. THEY is the absence of the concept of ‘other’ and the total embrace of self-expression. THEY is for everyone, there is no need for conformity or fear or distinction between styles, there is only one style and that is your own style! We were very inspired by the people around us, our teams and kids, and the younger generation. They have a new and thrilling grasp of the concept of identity and acceptance, and I think it is a very important shift in the world. “THEY” was voted the most important word of 2021, and has been added to numerous dictionaries for gender neutral usage. Merriam-Webster even introduced the gender-neutral honorific Mx. to their unabridged dictionary, forever ending the question of what to call someone whose gender is nonbinary. We wanted to capture the excitement and joy of being free to express yourself however you choose, and just the happiness of creative hair! THEY is the Harry Styles of hair collections, creativity and freedom together!

No employer may discriminate directly or indirectly against anyone on grounds related to pregnancy. Discrimination will only be deemed to be fair if it is intended to promote affirmative action or it is as a result of an inherent requirement of the job. This implies that the job itself must have some crucial characteristic. This indispensable characteristic, however, must relate in an inescapable way to the performing of the job required, in other words; that without which the job cannot be done. If an employer refuses to allow an employee to resume work after she took maternity leave in terms of any law, collective agreement or her contract of employment, this constitutes dismissal (this does not fall within the category of automatically unfair dismissal). A dismissal would be seen to be automatically unfair if the reason for the dismissal relates to pregnancy, intended pregnancy or any reason related to pregnancy. No employer may require or permit a pregnant employee or an employee nursing her child to perform work that is hazardous to her health or to that of the child (including night work). Suitable alternative employment should be offered on terms and conditions that are not less favourable than ordinary terms during her pregnancy and for six months after the birth of the child. Rest periods should be granted to pregnant employees. Breastfeeding employees should be granted time to breast-feed for at least 30 minutes twice per day. Maternity leave and benefits: A pregnant woman may take maternity leave from four weeks before her due date. Pregnant women are entitled to four consecutive months' unpaid maternity leave, which may start at any time from four weeks before an expected date of birth or from an earlier date if a medical practitioner or midwife certifies that leave is necessary for the health of the mother or child. Employees are prohibited from working during the period of six weeks after the birth of the child unless a doctor certifies that she is fit to do so. An employee who has a miscarriage during the third trimester of pregnancy or bears a stillborn child is entitled to six weeks’ maternity leave after the event. Employees on maternity leave have the right to claim from the UIF and may make an application for maternity benefits at any time before or after childbirth: provided that the application must be made within twelve months after the birth of the child. Employees must apply for benefits at their nearest Department of Employment and Labour (DEL) labour centre in person or organise for someone to go in their place. Employees may be paid at the labour centre of their choice or have the money deposited directly into their bank accounts. Benefits payable must be determined by multiplying the monthly remuneration by 12 and dividing it by 365. If paid weekly, by multiplying the weekly remuneration by 52 and dividing it by 365. If the contributor's remuneration fluctuates significantly from period to period, the calculation must be based on the average remuneration of that contributor over the previous six months. The rate at which the benefits are payable is based on a sliding scale between 38–58%. Subject to credits, benefits can be paid to a maximum of 121 days. If there is miscarriage or a stillborn child, the benefits can be paid for a maximum of six weeks after the miscarriage or stillbirth. In addition to claiming from the UIF, a female employee who is a member of the Hairdressing, Cosmetology, Skincare, and Beauty Industry Sick Pay Fund, and has been a contributing member for more than 12 months, is entitled to a maternity benefit claim as per the rules of the industry Sick Pay Fund. Such a claim will not affect the entitlement to a UIF claim. Forms to apply for maternity benefits through the UIF: The following forms and documents need to be completed and submitted to claim for maternity benefits: Form UI-2.3 (application form). Form UI-2.7 (if applicable). Form UI-2.8 (for banking details). Form UI-4 (form will be issued at DEL for further pay). 13-digit bar-corded ID or passport. Medical certificate from a doctor or birth certificate of the baby. When employees have completed and submitted the forms to the DEL, the Commissioner of the UIF or the Claims Officer must consider the application. If the application is declined, the employee must be provided with written reasons why it was declined. Parental leave and benefits: The amendments to the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA) include the removal of “birth of a child” as a statutory ground for taking Family Responsibility Leave. In terms of section 25A of the BCEA, an employee who is a parent of a child will be entitled to 10 consecutive days’ unpaid parental leave. Parental leave may commence on the day that the child is born. The 10 consecutive days’ parental leave are calendar days, not working days. An employee who contributes to the Unemployment Insurance Fund may submit an application (form UI 2.9) for parental benefits to the Department of Employment and Labour in terms of section 26B of the Unemployment Insurance Act (UIA). Forms to apply for parental benefits: An applicant for parental benefits, when making the application, must submit – an identity document; a full birth certificate of the child with full details of parents; a surrogate motherhood agreement in terms of the Children’s Act, 2005 (Act No. 38 of 2005); or an interim court order placing the child in the care of the prospective adoptive parent pending the finalisation of an adoption order in respect of that child; details of a valid bank account, in the form of UI 2.8; and remuneration received by the employee whilst still in employment, in the form of UI 2.7. Adoption leave and benefits: This category relates to the adoption of a child that is below the age of two. A single adoptive parent is entitled to 10 consecutive weeks’ unpaid adoption leave. If there are two adoptive parents, only one would be entitled to 10 consecutive weeks’ adoption leave. However, the other adoptive parent would be entitled to 10 consecutive days’ normal parental leave (see information on parental leave above). It is up to the adoptive parents to decide who takes adoption leave and who takes normal parental leave. Leave commences on the day that the adoption order is granted, or the day that a court places the child in the care of an adoptive parent. An employee who contributes to the Unemployment Insurance Fund may submit an application for adoption benefits to the Department of Employment and Labour in terms of section 26B of the UIA. Commissioning parental leave and benefits: Commissioning parental leave relates to surrogate motherhood. If there are two commissioning parents, they can choose: if the one takes commissioning parental leave, the other can take normal parental leave. The one who takes commissioning parental leave will be entitled to 10 consecutive weeks’ unpaid commissioning parental leave. The other parent would be entitled to 10 consecutive days’ normal unpaid parental leave (see information on parental leave above). Forms to apply for commissioning parental benefits: An employee who contributes to the Unemployment Insurance Fund may submit an application for commissioning parental benefits to the Department of Employment and Labour in terms of section 29 B of the UIA using form UI 2.9. An applicant for commissioning parental benefits, when making the application must submit – an identity document; a surrogate motherhood agreement in terms of the Children’s Act, 2005 (Act No. 38 of 2005); details of a valid bank account in the form of UI 2.8; (d) remuneration received by the employee whilst still in employment, in the form of UI 2.7; and birth certificate of the child with full details of parents. Employers must register themselves and their workers with the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) and pay the contributions before the 7th of every month to the UIF or to the South African Revenue Services (SARS).
