The Consequences of Arrears for Salon Owners Bargaining Council CEO Stephen Delport explains the serious consequences for salon owners who do not timeously pay staff pension fund contributions.

In May 2018, Spoilt salon owner Shoneez Warrington hosted an original show at Youngblood Art Gallery on Bree Street. Here, Spoilt Hair & Nails showed off its creative flair with a celebration of hair as art. “The inspiration for our show was the love of art and hair,” Shoneez explains. “We were inspired to see if we could combine the two into an exhibition, which is what we achieved. This show was all ours and all creations were done by our team, from outfits to hair, and from the original idea, right through to the final execution.” Although the main aim was to show off the salon’s creative side, the event was also a wonderful teambuilder that brought Spoilt staff closer in creative collaboration, while wowing all the guests. The Spoilt team are already dreaming up ideas for their next show! Spoilt Hair & Nails, Green Point 021 434 7112

By Clinton Valjeaux, Owner: Jeauval Hair Salons While at school, before I started my career as a hairstylist, I saw Victor on TV – a celebrity hairdresser working his magic on the Miss SA finalists. He was a showman personified in the industry, although understated at times. Later I had the privilege of meeting him, and so began our friendship, which has lasted more than 25 years. Victor owned and ran Hair & Beauty magazine for many years. He contributed ideas towards the creation of the Hairstylist of the Year competition, and he gave input to our first complete Jeauval product line. Victor, I salute you... you are an industry icon, a talented hairstylist, and now a businessman and product developer. Your valuable contribution to the South African hairdressing industry deserves to be recognised. As an icon and role model, you have inspired with your incredible commitment and achievements. Being the humble man you are, I hope you enjoy the surprise of seeing this Hair Heroes profile in Hairnews! God bless you for many more, Sir Victor! Your honoured and privileged friend, Clinton Valjeaux
