Education 2016 Bobbi Boss New York Seminar 38 COSMOBIZ SALON APRIL 2016 Images from Bobbi Boss B obbi Boss, a renowned leading provider of fashionable wigs, weavings, and hair pieces, held an entertaining and informative seminar in New York. Nearly 300 local beauty supply retail owners and employees were in attendance, and they enjoyed a night of educative presentations, live demonstrations, impressive giveaway prizes, entertainment, and a delectable dinner. Several highlights of Bobbi Boss’ Seminar included a showcase of the company’s hot new Faux Locs Braids, a live demonstration of their newly developed and patented Weave A Wig line, and an enlightening presentation on wig care. Sunny Synn, R&D Director at Bobbi Boss, and Cora Diggins, a celebrity stylist, gave a presentation on how to install Weave A Wig within 15mins. Synn said, “African American employees not only sell hair products but also use them. After the Weave A Wig presentation, they were surprised by the fast and secure installation and asked many questions to better understand the product.” Also, the hottest item of Bobbi Boss, Bomba Faux Locs™ series, was showcased. To show the easy installation, Bomba Faux Locs™ Twist was crocheted onto a model’s hair. The color choices of Bomba Faux Locs™ - called a Special Prism Color Series - are very unique; Bobbi Boss shared that sophisticated Metallic Sheen color is hot on SNS. The Bobbi Boss seminar was meaningful in the sense that it catered specifically to beauty store employees. Employees are the ones who interact with customers everyday, explain the products, and recommend them. Their thorough knowledge about products and thereby trust gained from customers will boost store sales. For hair companies, educational seminars provide an opportunity to effectively promote their products to store employees who are at the forefront of sales and hear what the customers and beauty store employees want from the companies. True win-win for both communities.
