The hairdressers who sit comfortably at the intersection of hairdressing skill and creativity have been named as the 2019 Goldwell Color Zoom Australian and New Zealand finalists. In categories of new talent and global creative colour, a list of national finalists have been announced for this year’s competition.
This year, the contestants were made to interpret the REMIX Collection in their artistic themes, meaning bold colours, sharp contours and contrasts, clashing styles and an innovative design were all part of the brief.
The eventual winners who succeed in bringing this concept to life, as announced at the national finals in late July, will be heading to the brand’s Global Zoom to compete with winners from all over the world and witness the new Color Zoom collection live and firsthand. This year, that will be taking place in the beautiful surroundings of Vienna in September.
This year, finalists were chosen by an esteemed panel, comprised of award-winning colourists Matt Clements, Stevie English and Justin Pace, as well as inspirational hairdresser Jayne Wild, Natasha King of Vivo Salons NZ, publisher Linda Woodhead, our own Global Zoom Creative category winner from 2016 Larissa Bresnehan who continues to represent us with aplomb internationally, Goldwell Australia education director Rita Marcon and INSTYLE editor Cameron Pine.
The judges chose a mixture of bold, captivating images that represent REMIX and bring the artistry Goldwell champions to life. Good luck to the finalists on your road to Global Zoom… Vienna waits for you!
