Yay for loyalty and good service! The National Hair and Beauty Federation (NHBF) is celebrating one family’s 80 year membership.
The National Hair and Beauty Federation (NHBF), formally the National Hairdressers Federation (NHF) announces an extraordinary milestone in its history. Clive Boon, owner of Boons in Retford, is being recognised for his family’s remarkable 80-year association with the federation, dating back to its founding days.
For the record
While the NHBF’s formal records acknowledge 50 years of continuous membership, a recent recognition visit revealed that Boon’s connection to the organisation actually spans over eight decades. His grandfather was one of the key founders of the NHBF, possessing a medal from 1938 – four years before the federation’s official establishment in 1942.
Caroline Larissey, Chief Executive of the NHBF, says: “Clive Boon’s family legacy embodies the very essence of our federation. Their 80-year commitment to the NHBF and the hairdressing industry is truly unprecedented. It’s members like Clive who have shaped our industry’s standards and continue to inspire the next generation of professionals.”
Clive Boon comments: “Our family’s association with the NHBF has been a cornerstone of our business for generations. The federation has always been there, supporting us through industry changes and helping us maintain the highest standards. I’m honoured to continue this legacy and contribute to an organisation that has given so much to our profession.”
This recognition highlights the NHBF’s long-standing commitment to supporting safe, legal, and profitable businesses in the hair and beauty sector since 1942.
Bravo … a boon to the industry we say!
