MODERN launched our Braids & Brides competition in January to promote special-occasion artistry and name one of YOU as the newest member of our exclusive 2017 Artist Collective (which includes @mustafaaavci, @blohaute, @heidimariegarrettand@annette_updo_artist).

After narrowing thousands of Braids & Brides submissions to our 10 semifinalists, the 10 talented stylists were tasked with creating a braided style. Our Artist Collective judges picked their five favorites, and those five were sent a Challenge Box with goodies from Pink Pewter, GKhair, HairUWear Professionaland Amikato create a final bridal style using at least one product or tool from the Challenge Box.

Here's where you come in: The grand-prize winner will be chosen by YOU, MODERN SALON readers! Public voting is open until March 12, so make sure you vote for your favorite submission every day.
