Knoxville, TN) From the ICA president Intercoifure America / Canada - Cuba to Florida to Shanghai As I write this, the last bits of planning are taking place for ICA's historic photo shoot in Havana, Cuba. A collaboration between some of America's and Canada's best hairdressers, working with Cuban hairdressers, will soon result in an epic photo shoot that will be published this May.
