​I was passing by my television a few days ago and saw that they were talking about Tyler Perry and TD Jakes but before I could get to the remote to turn up the volume, the story was over.  I went to the internet and found out that Tyler Perry is planning a big expansion in Atlanta.

Most of you already know that Tyler Perry Studios sits on what was once land of Fort McPherson, (a former US Army base in Atlanta).  Well, according to deadline.com, ​Tyler Perry and T.D. Jakes got the go-ahead from local authorities to purchase over 130 acres in Atlanta including a proposed expansion of Tyler Perry Studios for an entertainment district with theaters, retail shops, and restaurants.

THAT IS GREAT NEWS FOR NOT ONLY TYLER PERRY AND TD JAKES BUT ALSO THE BOOMING INDUSTRY IN ATLANTA!!!

​CR8 Agency Publicist Kri Peck is taking a break from building his client's brands, to building his very own. Today, he launched his luxury skin care line titled, KRI SKIN. The four product line is dedicated to eradicating acne, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars. Having struggled with insecurities with his own skin, Kri was motivated to finding a solution and helping others to do the same. KRI SKIN is available exclusively at www.kriskin.com.

Kri struggled with horrible cystic acne for over 10 years. After trying almost every over-the-counter and doctor prescribed product on the market, Kri was exhausted and ready to give up. He hired several chemists and estheticians to develop an assortment of products that were unique to his skin type (combination skin). Finally, after several trials and errors, Kri was not only cured of acne, but was left with beautiful, fluorescent and radiant skin. The line consists of 4 products: The Gentle Daily Cleanser, Advanced Hydration Moisturizer, Corrective Light Bright Serum, & a Detoxifying Pink Clay Mask. The formula  is both natural & clinically tested to help users become their most beautiful and confident selves.

KRI SKIN is a luxury skin care line founded by Actor and Publicist Kri Peck with a mission to empower people of all socio-economic backgrounds, genders, sexual orientations, and ethnicities in their pursuit to reaching personal confidence. With ingredients stripped from his own skin care routine, KRI SKIN targets problematic skin issues such as melasma, hyperpigmentation, acne, acne related scarring, dry & dull skin. The line consists of four products:
 
·    The Gentle Daily Cleanser
·    Advanced Hydration Facial Cream

The 74th annual Bronner Bros. Int’l Beauty Show (BB) returns with an all-new virtual format to provide salon pros the education and skills needed to adapt and evolve during COVID-19. The tech-powered platform is designed to meet the unique needs of barbers, stylists, and cosmetology students in the growing multicultural industry. Hosted on September 26th & 27th, the event will feature more than 60 master classes and 100 exhibitors from around the world. This is the nation’s first and largest virtual beauty show of its kind.
​To register, visit bronnerbros.com.

​As the impact of COVID-19 ripples through the multicultural beauty community, salon professionals, manufacturers and suppliers are facing unforeseen challenges. Due to the pandemic, BB cancelled the company’s in-person event for the first time in its history.

​The virtual Show’s agenda is dedicated to continuing education and celebrating the culture. Programming includes classes taught by some of the industry’s foremost artistic teams, global educators and business experts. Students are also encouraged to take advantage of the virtual platform to sharpen their skills. 

​Other virtual Show highlights include:

• Digital Marketplace: Attendees can connect with exhibitors to preview and buy new products and services. Sponsors and partners include Allied Beauty Association (ABA) Canada, Andis, EAP Heat, and UPS, among others.
• Master classes:  Classes for barbers and stylists at all levels; Learn the latest techniques on cut, color, weaves, natural haircare, barbering and more.
• Business panels: Interactive discussions on topics such as safely re-opening your salon or barbershop, disaster proofing your business, and maintaining your health behind-the-chair.
• Competitions: Live streams featuring some of the industry’s top talent as they battle for cash and prizes on the virtual main stage.
• Charles Gregory Tribute:  Special presentation honoring beauty industry legend and icon, Charles Gregory. He was best known for revolutionizing the industry with his ready-to-wear cuts. For more than three decades, Mr. Gregory served as a master educator and judge for the BB Show and BB® Professional.
