ABA through my eyes

Lindsay Grummett

Earlier this week, the Allied Beauty Association (ABA) brought its annual trade show to Toronto and as usual, it was amazing! There were hair competitions and eyelash applications. You could get fresh makeup, a new mani or prepare for summer with a fake tan (like I did).  There was so much to see and do, but why bother telling you when I can show you!

Here are some of my favourite photos from my day at ABA! Click on the photos to see the full size version.

 
Welcome to ABA!

Did you get a chance to meet the lovely Jodee?
She was manning the Spa Inc. booth for most of the show.

I saw lots of beautiful hair (and the back of some bald heads) while I was there!

ABA attendees also had the opportunity to get their hair done…

…And their eyebrows waxed…

…And their make-up applied…

 
…AND work on their tan!
I to0k a turn in the tanning booth (but included a photo of someone else getting tanned).

Oh, and did I mention that Essie Canada was also doing manis?

The treatments didn’t stop there…
Jodee got a phenomenal facial from Dermalogica Canada.
Her skin looked so bright and refreshed afterward.

It was all lights, camera, action at ABA and there were plenty of models on the stages and off.

These two models stole the show.
They were giving out 3D glasses that made their body paint pop!

I loved this fun flapper’s look. She was handing out product samples to ABA guests.

Caught the Moroccan Oil models taking a selfie break!

This picture sums up the show: FIERCE!
