Every that exist today must have happened to be ‘for the first time’. And it is its continuity factor only that makes it popular. Following the culture, the International hair stylist competition for stylists less than 30 years will happen in India for the first time.

“The Annual International Wella Trend Vision Award has been organized to respect innovation in the industry and to discover the new talent,” said Werner Robert, managing director Wella India.

Four creative hairdressers from the four regions would be shortlisted during the photoentry competition, the third phase of the four phase competition. The selection will be made by a jury comprising International Wella Trend Vision Award Winner 2006 Aurelio Ramos De Oliveira (Portugal), fashion designer Lasceles Symons and Suchitra Pillai, renowned actor and model.

The shortlisted candidates will compete in the final phase of the fourth round scheduled on 10 September. The top three winners will be given training at Vidal Sassoon (London), Toni and Guy (hong Kong) and Kimage School of Hairdressing (Singapore).

The national Gold Award winning team will represent India at International Trend Vision awards at Barcelona, Spain in October. This is the fifth year of the International Trend Vision Award globally.
