Each year, Goldwell celebrates hairdressers' talent, artistry and creativity in the Global Creative Awards. Thousands of hairdressers across the globe enter the respected awards for a chance at being picked to represent their country at the finals. The U.S. semifinalists have just been announced, and we couldn't wait to give them a shout-out! The winners in each category will be announced in September, and each will receive a cash prize, editorial coverage and a trip to London—not to mention the coveted trophy!
Congrats to all who entered!
