Here's everything that went down in Parma, Italy.
Your Complete Guide To The 2018 World Wide Hair Tour
Straight from Parma, Italy, home of the Davines Group’s new Davines Village headquarters, BTC had front-row seats at the World Wide Hair Tour 2018! With 3,500 attendees from 51 countries (and 47 languages!), the WWHT represented hairdressers from across the planet. Keep scrolling for literally everything you need to know about the event: the looks, the World Style Contest and a slideshow of photos from Davines Artistic Director Angelo Seminara!
The show’s first night began with a Welcome Dinner of Parma’s finest foods and wine, an incredible performance from a local choir and a marathon of runway shows. It featured international stylists showing the latest trends, with the Davines Artistic Team: Anna Pacitto, Candice McKay, Huub Eysink, James Abu-Ulba, Jani Beemster, Jesus Oliver, Sal Misseri and Vincent Moutault, plus a heartwarming appearance by Davines founders Silvana and Gianni Bollati.

British education team Alillon, World Style Contest 2016 winner Maggie Semaan and Danish artists Brian Suhr and Kirsten Demant showcased presentations on Day 2. Rounding out the day was Artistic Director of Davines Angelo Seminara, four-time British Hairdresser of the Year award-winner, who gave an exclusive peek at a new project he is working on, during which no photos or videos were allowed (but stay tuned!).
Day 2 also saw the culmination and winners of the World Style Contest, where 20 finalists had 45 minutes ontstage to finish their looks. It was a true inspiration to see these artists showcase their talents in front of a live audience. The 20 finalists were:

At the end of the day, attendees took flowers and plants from the event center back to the Davines Village, where they planted the flowers on the grounds of the village and enjoyed a garden party to wrap up the show! It was the perfect way to unwind and reflect on our time spent together in Parma, surrounded by fellow attendees, nature and inspiration.
