This year for the very first time, the world renowned Alternative Hair Show goes virtual! As always, the online event will also feature the finalists of the International Visionary Award with the winners announced live during the show.
Alternative Hair Founder, Tony Rizzo, is delighted to be able to announce the names of the international hair creatives who have reached the finals this year in the three categories of the International Visionary Award: Avant-Garde, Cut & Colour and Men’s. Devised by Alternative Hair Global President, Anthony Mascolo, the awards were created to provide a new platform to discover the new future stars of hairdressing from all around the world. “Despite the restrictions that the tragedy of the pandemic have thrust upon the world of hairdressing, the standard of entries this year has been as exceptional as ever,” comments Tony. “Nevertheless, we have now completed the very difficult task of selecting the 2020 finalists. The category winners will, as always, be announced during the course of the Alternative Hair Show on Sunday, 11th October 2020.”
