Included in the exhibition’s ‘Inform programme’, Dr Brew’s talk, entitled ‘Formulating for Textured Hair Types’, focusses on the definition of textured hair and considers the cultural aspect and relationship women of colour have with their hair. He will also be using a case study to expand on the fundamental building blocks for the formulation of a hair care product. His presentation takes place at 4.30pm on 15 November.

“I am very much looking forward to SCS Formulate,” commented Dr Brew. “It promises to be a great show, providing an opportunity to exchange expertise and learn about the ever-changing landscape of hair care and personal care, particularly with new sustainable and green ingredient alternatives coming onto the market.
“Events like these are a great source for inspiration and learning. The social aspect of connecting with likeminded people and creating long lasting personal and business connections is a plus of course.”
