Confession: I've always, always wanted to go to the Bronner Brothers Hair Show. Long before Chris Rock and Nelson George committed it to film in their documentary Good Hair, the show had piqued my interest for its innovation. Check this video out.

I mean, come on! How awesome would it be to witness this kind of artistry in person?

Sadly I won't be there this year, but if you live in the ATL area, you can. The world famous Bronner Bros. International Hair Show will be taking place this weekend, Aug. 15-18, in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center.

There'll be more than 60,000 hairstylists, exhibitors, distributors and cosmetology students celebrity appearances by Chris Rock, Al Sharpton and Nia Long. Marcia A. Cole, founder and editorial director of Ambermag, will present an informative and interesting panel, titled Styling Beyond the Chair: How to Break Into Magazines, Advertising, and Celebrity Styling.

In addition, there will be a comedy show featuring host JJ and the Young Giants of Comedy, and the showdown to end all showdowns -- the Hair Battle Royale competition, sponsored by Ford Motor Company. Contestants compete for $20,000 and a newly designed 2010 Ford Taurus.
