Global Creative Awards from Kao Salon Division

An annual award with a great buzz, we love the Global Creative Awards from Kao Salon Division – the parent company for Goldwell, KMS and Oribel. Reaching the UK Finals of the Global Creative Awards is an amazing achievement, never mind being a winner. To enter, competitors must create their vision with a photograph, which if successful they go on to recreate the look in the international live competition. This is where all the Goldwell countries come together to see who takes the global trophy. We can’t wait!
