America's Beauty Show 2027

How it compares

Premiere Orlando is the closest alternative for a salon team weighing education against product discovery. Its 2026 program had more than 760 classes and 500 exhibiting brands, giving it a larger selection of brands and teaching sessions. Its mix spans hair, nails, barbering, skincare, spa, wellness and makeup. Orlando suits teams that want to divide their time among several specialties and compare products across hair, nails and skincare; ABS gives Midwest salons a Rosemont gathering built around Cosmetologists Chicago and its education community.

The buying task changes at Cosmoprof North America Las Vegas. With 952 exhibitors and 26,500 attendee visits in 2026, it brings finished beauty brands together with retail and distribution buyers, while Cosmopack adds ingredients, manufacturing, packaging and machinery. It is a stronger fit for a brand founder choosing supply-chain partners or developing distribution. ABS is more directly connected to how a stylist, barber or esthetician will use and sell a product in the salon.

ABS earns its place when hands-on technique, professional shopping and team development belong in the same trip. Its barber and nail stages, international pavilion, wellness content and evening gatherings give a mixed salon team distinct reasons to attend without losing the shared professional setting.

America's Beauty Show suits a salon team that wants practical education, product shopping and the Cosmetologists Chicago community in one Rosemont trip.

Who exhibits

The 2026 floor paired cutting and styling suppliers such as Andis, Wahl Clipper and BaBylissPRO with treatment brands including Dermalogica and K18 Hair. Framar International and L3VEL3 connected color and barbering to the wider salon offer, while Ulta Beauty brought a retail presence. That mix makes ABS useful for professionals comparing how a tool performs, how a treatment fits a service, and what a client might buy for home care. Education and demonstrations help turn those comparisons into salon decisions.

America's Beauty Show 2027

America's Beauty Show 2027 brings the Runway, Barber Stage, International Pavilion, Nail Universe and health and wellness areas back into the same professional show. The program advertises more than 400 education classes and adds an AI and virtual fashion try-on activation. Candy Shaw, Tyler Kelbert, Jay Ladner, Kelley Baker, James Vincent and Sacha Quarles appear in the educator lineup. The President's Party, Global Image Awards and L.I.V.E. 312 at Joe's Live give the show a substantial evening program alongside education and shopping.

• For barbering technique, concentrate on the Barber Stage; the Runway offers a different route through artistry and broader beauty education.
• Nail Universe and the skincare, makeup and wellness areas let a mixed salon team split by specialty before comparing purchases together.
• Include the President's Party or L.I.V.E. 312 at Joe's Live in a team visit; those gatherings are part of ABS's professional community beyond the show floor.
