Each year, the show agenda is designed to offer knowledge, information, and inspiration to help licensed cosmetologists succeed. 2021 Summer show highlights include:

• World-class Education – An expanded schedule of more than 100 hands-on workshops and seminars, curated to meet the needs of multicultural professionals at all levels. The 2021 educational tracks include masterclasses on cut, color, barbering, business, extensions & weaves, make-up, natural hair, and braiding, among others. Classes showcasing the industry's up-and-coming beauty trends, skincare and makeup techniques will also take place.

75 Years of Excellence in Beauty

Unlike any other beauty show in the US, BB boasts an attendee profile that includes multicultural beauty professionals who come to learn the latest techniques, invest in the new tools, and purchase salon-quality products and services. Many show participants are salon and barbershop owners/operators seeking strategies to help optimize business operations, marketing and social media to bolster sales. To maintain Show integrity, select classes are only open to licensed beauty industry professionals and cosmetology students.

"Since the beginning, Bronner Bros. has been at the forefront of supporting the Black beauty industry, which was disproportionately impacted by the effects of COVID-19," said Erika Respress, Bronner Bros Show Manager. "Through careful planning, our 75th Anniversary Show will be like the ultimate family reunion! We are grateful to our attendees, sponsors and exhibitors for their continued support."
