Alternative Hair and Fighting Leukaemia are pleased to announce details of this year’s ALTERNATIVE HAIR SHOW. 

Now in its 36th year, the ALTERNATIVE HAIR SHOW is recognised as the world’s most prestigious annual hairdressing event, hosting leading inspirational hairdressers and leading artistic teams from across the globe. Importantly, the participants come together to help raise vital funding for Fighting Leukaemia, supporting doctors, research scientists and children and families suffering from blood cancers. This year’s show brings a dazzling showcase of mystery and inspiration as the legendary artistic show teams translate the theme: Mystique.

In 2018, the Alternative Hair Show moves to the beautiful and mysterious Masonic Temple in the Freemasons’ Hall in London’s Covent Garden. The venue is the perfect façade for Mystique and is guaranteed to create an exciting, intimate atmosphere, allowing the audience to see every detail of the hair, make up and costumes whilst enjoying the performance.
