An acronym for Home Of Professional Education, H.O.P.E. was founded by Denise and John Philipp, owners of TRU Beauty Concepts, a distributorship servicing Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. The center hosted its grand opening with special events featuring industry artists Michael O'Rourke and Philip Wilson.
 
The facility is a converted barn that now sports 40-foor ceilings, flat screen monitors, state-of-the-art camera equipment and a contemporary décor featuring wood floor, exposed stone, wooden beams and exposed duct work.

Salon professionals can come to the H.O.P.E. educational center to pursue any level of technical or business education in classes ranging from small workshops to presentations by leading educator for more than 100 participants.

"My wish for H.O.P.E. is that it will continue to inspire the beauty professionals who attend to dream bigger and raise current industry standards of excellence," says Founder/CEO John Philipp.

Philipp was raised in the salon industry and the education center is the culmination of his long-time dream to create a space for stylists to feel at home and inspired.
