Sexy Hair visits the Island

Grand Island Dispatch, September 21, 2007

Approximately 800 stylists showed up at the Grand Island Holiday Inn on Sunday and Monday for the convention of Sexy Hair, one of the fastest growing beauty care products companies in the industry. The appearance of Sexy Hair is part of a larger program by Becker Beauty Supply of Kenmore Avenue in Buffalo, a local wholesaler for the professional hairdresser. The event included private classroom presentations and more than 15 exhibit booths with on-going demonstrations that provided attendees with special purchasing opportunities.

CHI is the market leader in its industry, so popular that CHI has become a verb synonymous with flat irons. Do you CHI your hair? CHI is to flat irons what Kleenex is to facial tissue, said Herman Lewis, vice president of Becker Beauty Supplies.
