The International Hairdressing Awards present a new category of the contest: International Film & TV Hairdresser of the Year

International Film & TV Hairdresser of the Year will reward the best hairdressing work from award-winning film or television productions

The International Hairdressing Awards 2023 glittering ceremony will take place on May 8th in Spain

Entries are open in all categories for every hairdresser from over the world at www.ihawards.com, until January 17th.

The International Hairdressing Awards announce a new category in the contest: International Film & TV Hairdresser of the Year will reward the best hairdressing work from award-winning film or television productions at the world’s main film and television awards. 

The finalists in this category are selected by the IHA organizing committee from among the winners of the ‘Best Hairdressing’ category at the most prominent film competitions on the world and the competition judges will be in charge of selecting the winner. It should be noted that this new category is a totally new award, which does not exist in any of the hairdressing contests that currently exist in different countries.

The fifth year awards ceremony of the International Hairdressing Awards will take place on May 8th in Spain, in a city to be announced soon. Once again, the highly anticipated global hairdressing night will bring together the biggest names in the profession to present the coveted awards in a glamorous and unforgettable evening.

Participation for the 2023 competition is still open, until January 17th, and once again is done exclusively online at www.ihawards.com. All hairdressers from every country in the world are able to present their photographic collections and participate in any of the contest categories. 

The International Hairdressing Awards are an independent company, powered by hairdressers, founded and directed by the well-known Spanish hairdresser Mikel Luzea. The International Hairdressing Awards are supported by Revlon Professional as main sponsor, Estetica Magazine as global media partner and Salón Look Madrid and The Hair MBA as sponsors. 

The competition

Every hairdresser from all over the world can take part in the contest by signing up at www.ihawards.com and uploading their photographic collections (4 pictures of 4 different hairdressing styles, professional shooting, hi-res images). Two categories, International Haidresser of the Year and International Artistic Team of the Year, need a pre-selection to take part. The remaining categories (Best International Men’s Collection, Best International Women’s Collection and Best International Avant-Garde Collection) are open to every hairdresser. The two honorific categories (International Hair Legend of the Year and International Hair Influencer of the Year) are delivered by the organizing committee and are not open to general participation.

Once the entry period closes, on January 17th 2023, the judges will vote the participating collections and then on February, the finalists will be announced via live streaming. The winners in the five categories will be revealed among the fifteen finalists whose candidacies will be chosen by a jury made up of five renowned international hairdressers, a panel which will be announced soon.
