To celebrate passionate, artistic hairdressers, GKhair is hosting a Pinterest contest for licensed cosmetologists where one lucky winner will receive an all-expenses paid city break for two to fashion-fused London for four nights to see and experience all the sights.

This contest, running May 22, 2013- July 22, 2013, is designed to showcase where that inspiration and passion comes from.
