Industry Event held at AAMA Cosmetology Academy 22nd April 2024

1. This report has been collected as a way to understand the needs of hairdressers and barbers that operate in Hong Kong and the businesses are owned and operated by foreign owners that have immigrated to Hong Kong.

2. The evening began with an introduction of AAMA Cosmetology Academy and what is stands for and what they offer as a private academy owned by a Hong Kong resident/ Entrepreneur and a advisor to the VTC Hong Kong, this person has had experience in Hong Kong and the asian market in education and leadership spanning over many years and has successfully operated academies in Hong Kong and China.

3. The report shows that the need for quality education and sustainability in the industry is a the forefront of everyone mind on that evening and the issues arose that the community of foreign hairdressers is lacking cohesion.

4. As we progressed through out the evening the topic of government assistance was bought up as in the attendees were needing financial support to have their young stylist entering he industry trained in an outside source so that they can focus on the business and have their young stylist attend training so that it prepares the new talent for the salon floor and in turn assist to generate income for the business.

5. Registration of the hairdressing industry was discussed and all attendees agreed that registration gives the industry credibility and not just a job in the service industry.

6. The evening of discussion was based around how together as a community we can make a difference to the industry in Hong Kong and in conclusion it was quality education and registration and acknowledgment of our industry is a necessity for Hong Kong and not just an industry that is saturated with low quality service and together the attendees agreed that we need to work together to support each other and have a sustainable future for our industry.
