From manufacturers to distributors, salon owners to spa professionals, importers to retail buyers, more than 25,000 industry professionals will be visiting PBA Beauty Week/Cosmoprof North America this weekend (Sunday, July 31 to Tuesday, August 2). At the show, hundreds of products will be organized by product categories into four pavilions in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center (Pavilion A: Cosmetics and Personal Care; Pavilion B: Packaging, Contract Manufacturing and Private label; Pavilion C: Wellness and Spa; and Pavilion D: Professional Hair, Nails and Tools).

MODERN SALON’S editorial team will be full force at the show, and in addition to regularly posting live blogs, articles, filming Modern Salon TV and reporting from key events like NAHA, City of Hope, Beacon and Symposium, we thought it would be beneficial to give you an update on some of the hottest products being launched/promoted this year.
