Cosmobelleza
International Beauty and Hairstyling Trade Fair
08-10/March
Gran Via. 20th edition
The twentieth edition of Cosmobelleza attracted
10% more exhibitors than in 2013, as well as a
large number of professionals from the industry
who could not afford to miss this great event in
the world of beauty and hairdressing. More than
one-third of the exhibition space, 22% more
than at the previous edition, was occupied by
international firms.
We should mention particularly the success
of the fashion show, which featured from body
painting to exhibitions by the leading hairstylists
on the international scene.
Another outstanding event was the gala
for the first Tocado prizes. These awards,
created by the magazine of the same name
in cooperation with Grupo Cosmobelleza,
give recognition to the work of promising
young talents in our country, as well as to the
professional work of prestigious stylists. The
Despuntan Prize for the best urban creative
collection went to the Wapa’m team, whilst
Jordi Pérez of La Barberia de Gràcia was named
as Best New Hairstylist. Richard Ashforth,
international creative director at Saco Hair,
received the Tocado Prize for International
Hairstylist of the Year, and the team at Toni&Guy
picked up the life-time award.
Cosmobelleza 2014 also placed the
emphasis on training, with workshops
and master classes attended by more than
3,200 people.
Organised by Grupo Cosmobelleza, the show
has reached its twentieth edition, accumulating
great national and international prestige winning
such accolades as that awarded by Luxury
Spain in 2014: the Luxury Spain Beauty Seal
of Excellence as a benchmark beauty trade fair
in Spain.
