A Prestigious Milestone: Joining AIPP
We are honored to announce that The Hair Magazine has officially joined the Association Internationale Presse Professionnelle Coiffure (AIPP). This prestigious recognition highlights the importance and professionalism of our publication. Being part of such a respected organization affirms our magazine’s standing as a key player in the global professional press community. It is a privilege to join the ranks of the most respected professional magazines worldwide.
AIPP: History and Legacy
Founded in 1964 during the World Championships in Basel, Switzerland, the AIPP was established by visionary publishers of leading professional magazines. Their goal was to create a platform uniting global trade publications for hairdressers, promoting the value of professional press in the beauty industry. The AIPP has since grown to become a truly global association.
The early leadership of Otto Schwaar (Journal de l’Union des Maîtres Coiffeurs Suisses) and Pierre Carmes (Le Coiffeur de France) helped shape AIPP’s direction. Under the leadership of Roberto Pissimiglia (Estetica, Italy) in 1992, AIPP expanded its reach, cementing its place in the professional beauty community.
AIPP’s Mission and Vision
The AIPP continues to represent the trade press of the hairdressing industry to global institutions and public events. Its mission is to promote the importance of professional press, develop relationships with hairdressing organizations worldwide, and raise awareness among beauty companies and professionals about the significance of trade publications. A major initiative of the AIPP is the AIPP Awards, which celebrates the best in hairdressing from across the globe, recognizing creativity and technical skill.
The Future of The Hair Magazine with AIPP
As a proud member of AIPP, The Hair Magazine looks forward to collaborating with fellow industry leaders to enhance our content and provide valuable resources for the global community of beauty professionals.
