THEME
“Ode to the Esthetician”

This year’s theme: “Ode to the Esthetician” is all about showing reverence to you–the esthetician.
As estheticians, we are often our clients’ confidantes as well as their most trusted skin care and beauty advisors.
So, sit back, take your bow and let your clients sing your praises.

Throughout NBEW, we’d love to hear your clients shout you out and share their love for you, and the skincare & beauty services you provide.


Encourage clients to do one or more of these:


• Make a quick video or write a testimonial about why you are the esthetician in their life (have your clients tag you & us on social and/use the hashtag: #nbewlove


 • Write a testimonial & post to social media, tagging you & us on social and/use the hashtag: #nbewlove


 • Post a review of you on your SpaSho listing, located on our Black Esthetician Directory, here


 • Write or perform an ode for your esthetician (ode examples: a poem, rap, song, artwork, etc.)

ODE:
a short lyric poem that praises an individual, an idea, or an event.

In ancient Greece, odes were originally accompanied by music—in fact, the word “ode” comes from the Greek word aeidein, which means to sing or to chant. Odes are often ceremonial, and formal in tone.

And, in keeping with this year’s theme, we’re serenading you, the Esthetician, with a music playlist we created for NBEW.

  • Use it in your treatment room or elsewhere.
  • Visit the Spa Lounge to listen. Clients and everyone is of course welcome.

LOGOS

This year’s logo is a symbol that represents the esthetician being praised.
The esthetician is shown as a highly valued and royal figure, with “NBEW” representing the esthetician, as she/he sits on a throne with fan bearers, in this case, fan brushes, showing reverence.
We went for a vintage look, to embody the ode’s ancient origins, as well as that of the esthetician.

Please post the official logo on your social media pages on Wednesday, February 23, so we’re all united in support of NBEW together. Logos can also be used on your email campaigns, NBEW discounts and other marketing materials during this time. There are several variations of the logo for you to download and use.
