The UAE’s salon and spa sector received a powerful boost as the Professional Beauty Community Events made a lasting impact with back-to-back editions in Dubai on 17 June and Abu Dhabi on 18 June. These high-energy gatherings attracted salon owners, spa managers, aesthetic practitioners, and wellness leaders, all united by a shared goal: to grow, innovate, and connect.
Dubai edition: Insight-driven growth takes center stage
The Dubai event kick-started the momentum with its theme, “Empowering Salon and Spa Growth.” Hosted on June 17, the gathering provided professionals with transformative insights and tools to elevate their businesses.

The event’s atmosphere was electric—driven by ambition and fuelled by the exchange of real-world solutions tailored to the region’s fast-evolving beauty landscape.
Abu Dhabi edition: Building on momentum, strengthening community
Following the success in Dubai, the Abu Dhabi edition on 18 June continued the series’ forward momentum. As the third stop in the PB Community Event journey, it brought together another wave of passionate beauty and spa professionals ready to scale their businesses and deepen industry connections.
Key takeaways included:

Unified vision, collective impact
Together, the Dubai and Abu Dhabi events underscored a critical message: growth in the beauty and spa industry must be strategic, tech-savvy, and community-led. Attendees praised the approachable, insight-rich format that prioritized real-world application over theory.
