JOICO UK has launched Color Talent, a new competition searching for the very best in hair color creativity within the JOICO community. The inaugural competition celebrates creative vision, exceptional cutting and color skills and ability to create a sensational image. No professional photography is required, just a smartphone and incredible hairdressing ability!

Entrants are asked to create a magazine cover worthy image using clothing, makeup and accessories to enhance their overall look and hair. Taken against a white background with no filters, entries are required to come complete with a before photo and video along with the completed entry form. They are also asked to provide a brief outline on the inspiration behind their look, the methods used to create the cut and color (including details on color choice, formulas and techniques) along with details on how they styled and finished the look, and of course which JOICO products were used. Three categories ensure this brand-new color competition has something for everyone. The categories and criteria are as follows:

The competition will be judged virtually by a panel of industry leaders, with entries closing at midnight on June 30th 2022.
