Out in Style at Hairdressing Council Glamour Ball

The first Glamour Ball for the Hairdressing Council of Ireland was held in the heart of the Midlands at the Radisson Blu Hotel,  Athlone centrally located to ease the travel on attendees.

Dress to impress and wear anything, as long as its black was the theme to highlight the and discourage Bullying.

The mood was set by Bob Batty on the saxophone horning out  “Time goes by” i.e. ‘You must remember this…a kiss is not a kiss”  as the bubbly reception took off. Paparazzi were out  in force on the red carpet leading into the Marina Suite Ballroom. The staff and management at the Radisson Blu Hotel Athlone pulled out all the stops, the food and service was superb.

Letycha le ‘Synn, the host for the evening, lured people to the dance floor as the Band BOWTIE took to the stage. Once the band started no one had to be asked twice to stay; they had the dancefloor full all night before DJ Wayne Lloyd took over for great music to finish off the night hours later!

The laughs and flashes were endless at the selfie wall and backdrop sponsored by Sean Taaffe Hair Group.
