After a sold-out show in Philadelphia, their next stop is their hometown, New York, where the team is teaching at Texture Summit, which offers a variety of bite-size classes for professionals looking to hop off the beaten path during a trip to New York for the hair show.
“We released Cosmic-POP, a mash-up of bright colors and bold textures, at the end of 2015 because we believe 2016 is the year that the texture trends that are bubbling under the surface will emerge in the mainstream,” says Nick Arrojo. “We also announced our first-ever Texture Summit, so our peers could learn, practice, and master the trends we see. When we saw texture ruling the runways at New York Fashion Week, we felt delighted, and vindicated. The summit will help stylists enjoy working with texture; we are showing people how to maximize the beauty and suitability of wave and curl patterns.”
