We’re so happy to see our girl Kristie Kesic win Australian Master Colorist of the Year a the AHIA Creative Awards 2025. We handed Kristie (based at Cobelle Creative in Australia) the Colour World International Colour Genius trophy last summer for a brilliant collection. And obvs we knew she’d continue delivering truly stunning colour imagery for the foreseeable. She’s quite a talent. Enjoy this latest winner: Alchemist by Kristie Kesic, champion colourist.
Alchemist
Kristie explains: “What happens when you step outside the lines, push beyond the familiar, and embrace the unknown? This collection is a celebration of breaking free—of stepping out of the box and into a world of boundless creativity. Inspired by the beauty found in fashion, nature, architecture, and patterns, each look reimagines these elements in vivid, mesmerising hair colour. Shapes, textures, and hues collide in ways that just work—just like the magic that happens when you trust your vision and let creativity lead. This is hair artistry without limits, where the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary. Where pretty hair becomes cool hair. Where hair colour transforms the look and becomes art. It’s about daring to see inspiration everywhere and translating it into something breathtaking. Because true magic happens when you take a step beyond comfort and into possibility.”
