The four-day event kicked off on Saturday 31 May and concludes today (3 June) and involves some of the world's best cosmetologists. The showcase was first founded in 1925 in Hamburg and is run in partnership with Intercoiffure Mondial’s Education for Life initiative. It was introduced to Christel House SA in 2016 by Ezra Isaacs (Coiffure Ezra Hair and Beauty Salon) and Rolf Losken.

Megan Losper, spokesperson for the school, said as part of the congress guests can network and learn different skills.

“This marks the first international trip for these students,” she said, “and they are beyond excited and deeply grateful to Wella Professionals, Goldwell, Schwarzkopf, Intercoiffure Mondial and all the sponsors and supporters who have made this journey possible. The students will also have the opportunity to tour Hamburg.”
