Congratulations to the 2025 Hairbrained Video Awards Winners!

The 2025 Hairbrained Awards (HBAs) once again shined a spotlight on the most talented and innovative artists in the professional hair industry. Held on March 23, 2025, at Rumi Event Space in New York City, the HBAs brought together hundreds of top community hairdressers to honor creativity, craftsmanship and excellence in hairdressing.

“This year’s Hairbrained Awards were truly remarkable,” said Gerard Scarpaci, Hairbrained Co-Founder. “The talent and artistry displayed across all categories were inspiring, making it an incredibly tough competition. We congratulate all of our winners and finalists and look forward to seeing how their work continues to shape the industry. We’re already excited for next year’s event!” Scroll down to see work from each of the winners.

Before the awards, Hairbrained hosted Hb Sessions, the second stop in our one-day event series designed to provide immersive education and inspiration. The energy from Sessions carried directly into the HBAs, making for a day of learning, connection and celebration.

A huge thank you to our sponsors for their support of the craft hairdressing community: Davines, Paul Mitchell, Eleven Australia, Olivia Garden, Virtue Labs, and MainEntrance Artists/The Main.
