The stars of the salon world came out to help American Salon celebrate its 125th anniversary in Vegas during HairWorld 2002. The par-tay, held at hot spot Ghostbar in the new Palms Casino, gave hairdressers, manufacturers, and distributors the opportunity to honor the magazine's history, enjoy present friends, and toast a beautiful future.
