IBS New York

Not as many benders was very disappointed only sane one day

I learned a lot about the industry, and ways to network and build connections.

Internet connection was terrible and Security had its issues since we and our neighbors got robbed over night and during showtime

I really liked being able to learn about and purchase products for my company that were natural and organic. The quality is exactly what I was looking for. I would attend again.

Was disappointed in the quality and quantity of vendors. Went home with an empty suitcase

Got the discount student rate. That alone was an issue because school couldn’t even get tickets till the last min. Why? Because IBS didn’t want to reissue tickets that were lost in the mail. Smh.Waste of money, as everything is everywhere. For example, nail vendors are all spread out. Layout online isn’t completely accurate and vendors do demos on the edge of their booth space...ghetto. Super loud and disorganized. Comes off as just another money grab. No big discounts on products, and some of the great vendors don’t even come to that show. Waste of 2 tickets. Never again. Plus I get everything I need and way better pricing at the beauty supplies in person or online and even from the vendor directly.

Not enough food vendors took forever to get the food. and finding class rooms was hard and no employees knew where they were

Loved the show- it was my first time -enjoyed my day very much - going next year and truly looking forward to it. They were amazing shows and choreographers- makeup and design was surpberb so glad I went!

There were ltd. spots for buying nail polishes etc. CND where not there, IBC, where not there, & the nail stations that where there didnt enough polishes & gels to buy. I flew all the way from Bermuda. It felt like a waste for travelling there.

I learned more about barbering, and how to just take my time with it and not give up because im a hairstylist trying to get into barbering.

It was well organized and packed with great shows/vendors. Unfortunately it closed a day early due to weather concerns. I look forward to next year.

The show was great. Lots of information on new trends. The free classes was great.

The line for registration was ridiculously long...I'd rather pay more for same day admission next year. Each year there are more flea market type vendors it seems.

You should be 2days before to check your booth and amenities
