African Evening at the Sugarloaf


The 20th Intercoiffure World Congress had some nice surprises for the participants to the second theme party held at the Sugarloaf.

Under the name “African Evening”, the party brought the African influence into the Brazilian culture and created unforgettable moments of fraternization and networking among the 800 hairstylists who flew in from 36 countries.



Having the Sugarloaf as a scenario, the party was able to recreate the Brazilian miscegenation and its cultural riches. The evening was topped off with a special show of the Escola de Samba Unidos de Padre Miguel, from Rio de Janeiro.

Intercoiffure Juniors create futuristic concepts

Another highlight of the evening was the performance of the Juniors of Intercoiffure, who are regarded as the future of the Association. The 23 members, among which 5 Brazilians, were introduced by Mario Tricoci, from the Fondation Guillaume, Otto Sommer and Noriko Tsubouchi.

The show, which had the participation of a dance group, emphasized on art, fashion and haircut, color and hairstyles trends for 2009, aside from showing the talent of the hairstylists of the Fondation Guillaume present around the world and celebrating its 25th anniversary.
