We’re proud to have Big Beauty Live 2026 recognised by the industry and featured by Professional Beauty Australia following a sold-out event that brought together beauty professionals, educators, salon owners, and industry leaders from across Melbourne.

Big Beauty Live was created to empower beauty businesses through education, connection, and community - and seeing the event celebrated as one of the industry’s most impactful beauty gatherings was incredibly special for the entire Salon First team.

The event featured keynote speakers, live demonstrations, mindset and business education, and meaningful networking opportunities designed to help salon owners grow with confidence and clarity.

As highlighted by attendees and speakers alike, the energy of the day reflected what Salon First is all about - people-first partnerships, collaboration, and genuine support for the professional beauty industry.
