Cloud Nine celebrated their new Southport office opening on April 21 at the glamorous Freedom Suites with an evening of networking with local influencers, key salon partners and all the creatives that now call Queen Street Village at Southport home, writes Cameron Pine.
Bringing some festive collective spirit to a Friday night, the entrance to Salon Suites was alive with a smorgasbord of grazing food and demonstrations to ignite a space with so many leading creatives – and now Cloud Nine’s Queensland office base that affords both management plus demonstrations as their prime location to showcase the brand and be close to the craft of hair.
“We decided to open in Freedom Suites so we could be around like-minded people in a collaborative environment without the corporate feel. We have a beautiful space we can work from, create social content, meet with partners and creatives and most importantly create hair with full salon facilities – perfect for a brand like Cloud Nine,” said Cloud Nine Australia sales and marketing director Seaneen Copeland.
“To celebrate our new launch of ‘getting ahead of the curve’ with the 2-in-1 Contour Iron Pro we wanted to do things a little different. A hair brand should thrive in an environment where we can be bold and express ourselves,” Seaneen added.
The warm and friendly soiree was perfect opportunity to also locally launch and demonstrate the latest 2-in-1 Contouring Iron Pro five days ahead of its official release. The innovative design is made to both curl and straighten hair through curved plate technology.
Marketed as the first straightener designed to curl, the revolutionary curved plated technology balances the ability to create sleek, shiny, straightened styles, as well as adding volume, flicks and more with versatility. The straightener works with variable temperature control, with temperatures ranging from 100-200°C, and also has a Revive Mode made to minimise friction by vibrating at 8,000 times a minute at the controlled temperature of 150°C.
“The 2-in-1 Contouring Iron Pro is ahead of the curve with its brand-new curved plate technology to create sleek, shiny, straightened styles, add flicks, and boost volume easily. Also featured in this product is our signature duo of moisture-locking minerals infused into the plates for stronger, shinier, and smoother hair,” Seaneed explained.
Freedom Suites is more than a just a space, located in the $550-million Queen Street Village, Southport, the eclectic spaces are designed with Art Deco inspiration – including two receptions, a bar and kitchen, a freelancer breakout room, commercial laundry facilities and more. The space now accommodates more than a dozen freelancers with boutique salon suites for beauty, injectables, hair and everything in between.
“We love coming home to the environment here – Southport is really growing and is a great hub with easy access to Brisbane and the rest of Queensland,” Seaneen said.
“We love having brands like Cloud Nine be part of our community – we are all about having the best of everything in one location, and a product supplier helps complete the picture,” shared Gavin Hinton, Founder of Freedom Suites.
