Last weekend the Brisbane Hair and Beauty Exhibition (BHBE) brought innovations, networking opportunities, education and competitions to Queensland and Redken Brews’ Barber Pro Series was chief amongst them.

The competition took place on the floor to discover dynamic, bold and skillful talents in men’s hair, existing alongside other beauty-related competitions that took place throughout the event, such as the Emendee Nail Competition, Pravana Hair Competition,  LashJoy Lash Competition and the Crown Brush Makeup Competition. The Barber Pro Series turned the attention squarely onto hair and men’s hair specifically, deciding winners in a range of categories such as futuristic colour, contemporary  colour and cutting for senior hairdressers, apprentices and salon team.

Traditional barbering, men’s freestyle and hair art also spoke to the technical and creative aspects of the competition.

Congratulations to all the winners and medallists in their competitive fields, listed below.
