We talked to Marco Volpi, Opinion Leader who has been working with the brand for years.

Tell us about yourself briefly. "I attended at the beginning of my career three different schools in eight years, a purely male where for some years I taught m.volpie organized events, the other two female; I started my collaboration with another Parisian company exploiting various opportunities then I met Elgon and I realized that it was a great company and that with them I was not a number. In these years thanks to Elgon I have been able to do many different experiences, test myself in a group and alone, represent a company in the world and I have always done so with great pleasure. My salon is in Ponsacco in the province of Pisa and thank God it works great!"

What does it mean to be Opinion Leader Elgon? "It means loving the company, knowing exactly the products and helping other hairdressers to use them well and appreciate them."

Which Elgon product should never be missing in a salon and why? "The Volume System Kit, a truly unique volumizing technical product, because depending on the installation and shutter speed, gives shape to all types of hair, even the most damaged without burning them or dulling them and with a natural and bright result. It’s a product I couldn’t replace with others!"

What do you expect from the Salon Proof technical deepening session? "I expect to improve my standing, because with slides to project, a clear track to follow and an audience to keep attentive and involved... is not easy!"

What advice do you have to give to the new junior professionals who approach the business these days? "My advice is to participate, without ever getting tired, to learn something from everyone, to make a collage of different experiences and then create your own style; always keep the humility and remain even a little 'children... with the ability to be surprised even after so many years."
