Premiere Orlando 2017 marked the official launch of BTC 2.0—a new magazine (click here to see it now!), a new website AND a new online educational platform just for hairdressers (check out BTC University here). So, of course, we had to celebrate with a lineup that was #SquadGoals, serving up nonstop education from some of the industry’s biggest names. The audience was packed, more than 4,000 magazines left the booth in the hands of attendees and you could feel excitement in the crowd!
