Historical Background
The origins of Hairdresser Day in Argentina date back to the early 20th century. It is said to have been inspired by the establishment of the first hairdressing guild in Buenos Aires, which aimed to professionalize and organize the trade. The date, August 25th, was chosen to commemorate the founding of this guild and has since become a tradition celebrated throughout the nation.
