Happy New Year

Bond would like to welcome everyone into the New Year. We hope everybody had a wonderful and relaxing Christmas and we can't wait to see everyone in the New Year.

A Big Year Ahead

2013 is set to be a big year at Bond with a few exciting things planned.


Training

It is set to be a big year for training at Bond with staff doing courses in all aspects of hairdressing including cutting, colouring and styling to increase knowledge and continue to be inspired to provide our clients with the latest and greatest in all things hairdressing. Bond will also be involved in a new government funded mentoring program that involves mentoring apprentices and helping them through their apprenticeship to decrease drop out rates. Leslie is also hoping to continue his teaching at Canberra Makeup Academy, teaching the hair component of the diploma of Makeup Artistry.

Awards

This year has started off well with the announcement that Leslie has become finalist in two categories in the Hotshots Competition held in Brisbane. Jen, Shaun and Leslie will be flying to Brisbane to attend the HairBiz Forum for the awards announcement and then the after party. Leslie is also entering this years Hair Expo Awards in the New Creative Force category with the shoot to take place at the end of this month so fingers crossed.

Team Building

The entire Bond Team are heading to Phuket this year for a week of team building as well as recuperation in May. The salon will be closed from Sunday 12 May until Monday 20 May inclusive and we will be re-opening on Tuesday 21 May 2013.  We will be opening extra hours in the week before our departure although we do encourage clients to make a booking as soon as possible so we can look after your hair care needs at that time.

Jen on Kokoda

In September Jen will be embarking on the very difficult Kokoda track. Jen is doing this for her father as he is too ill to achieve this by himself and also her grandfather who was shot on the Kokoda Trail in the Second World War. Jen is also hoping to raise money for a charity very close to her
heart, the Brave hearts Foundation, a charity that provides support of victims of sexual abuse and a very worthwhile charity. We will have more information on how to sponsor her closer to the time.
