Colour World 2025 was an exciting opportunity to meet some talented new colourists, as well as touch base with some of our long-time friends. So when the opportunity came up to host a stand in the main hall at the event in London, it seemed like a no-brainer.
Joined on the stand by our friends at Green Salon Collective, we opened up the conversation around sustainability and low-tox, British-made products with conscious stylists and salon-owners. We were particularly excited to invite members of the crowd to spin our prize wheel for a chance to win some fantastic OCS and GSC goodies, as well as some sweet treats.
On the first day of the event, we were joined by the fabulous Zoë Rees who gave a demonstration of her signature express balayage service, designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal service time. Zoë used the newly-revamped Naturlite Lightening Powder on our own Co-MD Vicki, and the result was a soft, sun-kissed blonde that was toned to perfection.
Day two saw industry icon Karine Jackson demonstrating the power of OCS colour on textured hair, showcasing some gorgeous copper and toffee tones, before Paul from Green Salon Collective gave a talk on sustainability.
The fun didn't end after the weekend of the event, though; we were also super proud to sponsor the Mindful Colour Genius category at the Colour World Awards in June.
The Mindful Colour Genius award recognises a salon's commitment to sustainability, and we saw lots of very impressive entries. On the night, the title went to the very deserving Oliver Blackaby. Massive congrats from Team OCS, Oliver!
