The Roaring 2020s Have Arrived

By Dennis Bernard Campanaro

The Roaring 2020s SHORT HAIR DECADE will become much needed and a welcome breath of fresh air for our industry! The stock market is at an all time high while the overall health of the beauty industry continues to be in  a downward spiral . Long hair trends of the last two decades have reduced salon visits to a minimal while revenues decrease.  As our economy continues to recover, with unemployment numbers at all time highs, an increased demand for innovation in the beauty industry is imperative.  Even during these times, Americans will still spend a portion of their wages on hair.  Yet the professional  beauty industry is not getting its fair share of their disposable income. The Roaring 2020s Short Hair Looks will be the solution for manufacturers, distributors, salons and stylists to regain the business lost during the previous two long hair trend decades.  Barbers after years of lost business with long hair trends are now continuing the Short Hair movement that was begun a few years ago achieving prosperity with barber shops thriving and filled to capacity, while manufactures are growing their brands with new products .At Dennis Bernard Professional, we believe history may repeat itself just as the H1N1 flu virus pandemic ended in 1920 and brought about the start of the Roaring 20s. With this new era people returned to going out, celebrating and taking the time to look and feel good about themselves.

New Women Short Hair Trends that will be introduced industry wide is the solution for our business decades turnaround and prosperity.  Our industry needs to come together as one, creating  modernized SHORT HAIR LOOKS  using the Roaring 20s one hundred year celebration of that decades prosperity in fashion and beauty as a perfect marketing tool..
