Join Erin & Annie on a week-long adventure to London, UK in 2025! You’ll kick off your journey by departing from a major metro city of your choice, whether it’s Seattle, WA, NYC, or another convenient location. After an overnight flight, you’ll touch down in London, UK, ready to dive into an experience like no other.
We’ll start by dropping off our luggage at the hotel, followed by a group meal to get to know each other and celebrate the start of our adventure. Afterward, we’ll explore some of London’s iconic sights before an early bedtime to help you adjust to the time change. The rest of the week will be packed with unforgettable experiences: a stroll down Bond Street, cheering on a local team at a football game, hands-on classes with SR Hair Society, and attending Salon International for a dose of top-tier education and inspiration.
This trip is designed to ignite your creativity and leave you with memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t wait to share this incredible journey with you!

Alternative Hair Show
In 1983 hairdresser Tony Rizzo and his wife Maggie lost their first-born child, Valentino, to leukaemia at the tender age of 2 years and 7 months. They decided to hit back at this vicious disease in the best way they knew by engaging their many friends and colleagues in hairdressing worldwide in an entirely new and audacious charity fund raising event.
The Alternative Hair Show was first staged at London’s Camden Theatre in October 1983. The Show was a huge success raising an enormous £7,500, which was immediately donated to Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research the UK’s leading blood cancer research charity. The Alternative Hair Show was born!
