“The competition is CosmoProf’s way of creating another opportunity for students to showcase their talent, get exposure to top salons, and breeds the potential for apprenticeship,” says Tracy Pell, Director of Marketing. “We are hoping that this contest not only gives up-and-coming stars in the industry an opportunity to be mentored by industry icons, but also give them their first chance to be recognized for their talent by others in the industry.”
The contest kicks off with a call for entrants to submit three images of a hair style created on a mannequin. Six finalists will be selected to move on to the next round, who will then blog about their entry and will showcase their work live at Intercoiffure for a chance to win the grand prize: $500 CosmoProf shopping spree, a photoshoot with acclaimed industry photographer Babak and Luis Alvarez, Aquage co-founder. The grand prize winner will also appear on the September cover of the CosmoProf Shopping Guide.
