Intercoiffure elevates the Competition: Nouveau 2017 Creative Cut, Color & Texture Contest!

The New Year is a perfect time to reassess why you do what you do everyday. In an organization like Intercoiffure, which holds an immeasurable amount of talent in its members, many are hairdressers-turned-salon-owners-turned-entrepreneurs, or celebrity hairdressers with a star-studded Instagram.

Now there is a chance to put those skills in a competitive platform and remind these members that ultimately, it all started with a pair of scissors. ICA Nouveau Creative Cut, Color & Texture Contest is open for the 2017 entries, and this is the perfect moment to reevaluate what brought each and every member to the craft; creativity and passion for hair.
