All about this year's event |
 FHBF Inspirations '06 was on Sunday, 4th June 2006 and we were back at the
Hilton Metropole NEC Birmingham
as it is such a popular venue.
|
We
were delighted to welcome L'Oreal as our main sponsor and it was a fantastic, start-studded day!
|
|
Star Studded Event
|
INSPIRATIONS '06 was truly inspirational, in the company of
Patrick Cameron, the L'Oreal technical team, Simon Shaw from Wahl and Andrew Barton from Saks. What a fantastic line up!
The L'Oreal team presented their predictions for next season's fashions and Andrew and Simon shared their skills and presented their latest looks for you to recreate and impress your clients with.
This event is unique. No other event offers so much for so little and it's available to you simply because you belong to the FHBF!

|
Village Arcade
|
In the Village Arcade there was the chance to sample L'Oreal styling products as well as a great selection of new products available. And of course your
regular favourites were back including the chance to have your
scissors sharpened with Coolblades. More companies, more choice!

|
Making a weekend of it!
|
INSPIRATIONS '06 has become a weekend event with many members choosing to stay on Saturday night and we again negotiated special dinner, bed and breakfast rates, well below the regular tariff, for those who stayed at the Hilton.
This was our fifth year at this hotel. It had been recently refurbished and is very popular for those who like to make a weekend of it with the family.
The hotel has a fabulous swimming pool and fitness centre and there were plenty of places of interest for the family to go to while you were enjoying your time at conference.
There are also many other hotels in the vicinity including a Premier Travel Inn and Express by Holiday Inn on the NEC complex. Plus a choice of
bed and breakfast accommodation in the area. There really are prices to suit all pockets!

energized, motivated and leaves with a positive attitude and
feel good factor, ready to take on the world! OK, then, maybe just getting back to your clients with an extra cheerful smile!!
