The fashion installation was presneted by Pink Weave, Sincerely Varunee and RockChiq with Kate Knuvelder’s jewelry collection. The event was held at Pigment Cosmetics.

/ Thank you so much for having us at The Beauty Expo! We had a great time! It was wonderful to see all the stylists at work and be around all the beautiful people. This event was not only a good way for us to reach a wider audience and introduce them to Aveda (or re-introduce them as the case may be), but it was also a great networking opportunity. We were not only able to connect industry professionals to educate on them on our new Pro Privilege program, which is a program for beauty professionals to get a discount on our amazing products, but we were also able to connect with photographers, fashion bloggers and other people in the fashion industry that we will network with for future events for our brand. So thanks again Owen Geronimo ! We had a great time and we are looking forward to partnering with you again in the near future!!
