Cosmoprof Worldwide Bolognal- On Hai★∑r Show & Exhibition
Move-in
Weather forecast had & π₽showed that 11/24, our first dβ≤&≤ay in Bologna, was driz✘€©zling all day long, and i↓¥t truly was, so we took✘♥π a rest in hotel in the ↑φ×morning and stored up ‌✘δ‍our energy for Move-in that day aftφ€ernoon.
We arrived at the Piazza Della Costit↔♣εuzione (Exhibition Center) with two ↑‍large baggages of samp✔§® les around 11:30 am. Our booth number w‌≥as B18, which is a ve∑₹ €ry lucky number in Cσ≠♣hina. If you could pronounce it in C±♣hinese, it means “必Ω±要(yào)發” (“make₽ ¶> a fortune for sure&rdδ↓>quo;). After we located our booth, ∞πwe started to set up our display '‌racks and posters right away. φ★₩

“Move-In” ‌Ωwas a huge and complicated taφ★sk indeed. We took alm✘∑↔÷ost six hours to finish all '★the work, but we all very delighted atαφ our final result. The transformati <©♦on of our booth was prominent.&&'nbsp;

Cosmoprof Day 1
With me, it was literally my first timeπ§↓ to take part in an exhibi ♦δtion as an exhibitor, so I was ne↕≥∏♥rvous about everything under unc≠>↓ertain conditions before the exhi↓✘>bition officially began. There were ≈↔₹not too many people at the veryπ♣α first hour; neverthel>≤→ess, the center got more and increasing♦≥"₩ly crowded after 10 am. What©₹↑€ overwhelmed me was what fashion s™§ense of Italian people h≤$γave (most of visitors were©¥✘ stylists, salon owners, wholesσ&₩♥alers, etc)! Their trendy an♠×™φd fashionable haircut and garmen£₽‍t attracted me a lot and made me f★•elt like that I was (and am) work♦₹±ing in the field of beauty was a very l ±ucky and pretty cool thing!
Every guest whom we talked t≤✔©o was very friendly, but we£‍ did meet an untoward difficulty with ↔<them – language barrie¶♣$"r! Most of Italian visitors only×β✘$ spoke in Italian not in English. We♥♥™ struggled for a period of tσ↕™ime because the langua‍¶★ge barrier hindered us to unde→ £★rstand our clients better - we were not×φ¥☆ able to know their exact n∏eeds if we could not overcome the oλ₽εbstacle. After two unsucces≈σsful communications, we finally found‌Ω↔ a way- downloaded an e-translato¶®r. Though the translation was not that ≠≥₩✘accurate sometimes, but it did h§λ≥elp us a lot during th©✔$≤e whole exhibition period.&nb™ ≠≠sp;

Cosmoprof Day 2
We met a very lovely ↕∏¶family on second day at Cosmoprof ★←±. The mother of the family₹≥™ is a salon owner and attended the£♣ exhibition with all her family c ₽ompanied with. She had a great•± interest in our syn≈¥δ♦thetic wigs, and almost ev♣♠ery family member tried our wigs with hλ★er, and the father was one of them J W±&'e had a quite a relaxi&≈ng conversation and the εφmother bought a pink>♦ synthetic wig with all suppo >rt from her family in ∑×the end.
Another guest that made mσe impressed with is anothε™er exhibitor from a Milan Hair exte≥'' nsion company. He wa ♥s very professional an★↕✘d conversable. He asked if we came from÷β✔ Qingdao at first and asked×↑© a lot of questions about tape-in hair↕♥Ω← extensions, our ware←‍≤☆house location, delivery tim•↕e, etc. We exchange our business car∏‌↕¥d with each other. I really h→β"oped we can have further →©±cooperation in the near future.
In our spare time, River a↕‌nd I were willing to bring '×$our catalog books and our bu" ₹siness cards to drop in other ∑≥exhibitors and to talk about their p₩∏€opular hair products and to learn h ✔&→ow they set up the booth±≈±. At around 5:30 pm, all exhibitors&∞× , including us, start to<© pack up all or the left sample₩€s and remove all the display rπ©acks and stuff, which si∏βgnified the Cosmoprof exhibition was ∑§≈'drawing to an end.

Sum up the experience♠∑λ← of Cosmoprof Exhibition
With the 2 days Cosmopr©↑of exhibition journey ∞ came to an end, we did φ∞÷harvest a lot of information f∏•₽rom our guests. We understood better ™'with what they were interested, what thβ™ey needed and how they thou¥→↑←ght of the wigs and hair extension✘λ♦←s because we had a chance to really cr•→γoss the borders to co♣←mmunicate with them face t¶δ¶o face instead of emailing or phone ca₽®>lling.
Also, we’ve learned that we shouλ←ld prepare well before we attend to a✔ πn exhibition in a country whi↑∏∑ch has own language (especial✔≤€ly go to a non-English speaking countrε≤'‌y). We need to learn th≠↔ ∏eir culture, even learn a few sente α♠→nces like their daily expressio••"§n in their language to<∏•↕ show more respect to them as✘ε§λ well as have more oppβ‌αortunities to communicate with th∞→✘em in order to get more information ₹✔≥σfor ourselves.
In shorts, I am truly appreciated tβ☆hat we have the chance to go to ₹←Cosmoprof On-Hair Exhibition to u ≤↕&pdate my knowledge about the hai∑×★r fashion area and get to÷λ know our clients better.
