With the announcement of our local finalists in the Kao Salon Global Creative Awards, we’re excited to showcase over the next few weeks, a series of stunning colour styles from each of our finalists, and the inspiration behind their finished look. Each post will feature two incredible stylists — one from the  Creative Colorist  category and one from the  New Talent Colorist  category — highlighting their standout work side by side. With six posts in total, we’ll be celebrating the talent and creativity of all 12 finalists. Stay tuned for weekly inspiration! CREATIVE COLORIST My Inspiration + Why Goldwell Inspired by the calm strength of Enchanted Solace and the emotion behind Orange Glow, I created a look that blends softness with a bold, radiant edge. It’s about quiet transformation - where warmth meets serenity. Goldwell gives me the freedom to create without limits. With Elumen’s brilliance and lasting integrity, my ‘why Goldwell’ moment was knowing I could turn vision into vivid, wearable art. Tamzyn Berman | scar NEW TALENT COLORIST My concept is something I have always been very passionate about, and it’s a topic that resonates with everyone!  No matter what part of world you live in, I think we can all recognise and feel the effects of global warming and climate change. That is one of the many reasons I love working with Goldwell. Not only do they prioritise great quality products, but they practice ethical standards in all areas of the industry and constantly strive to create more sustainable products, starting from the raw ingredients, till the very end,  the consumer use, and recyclable materials. I wanted to put my all into this project, so I was meticulous about everything; the colour pallet, the colour placement and the story that speaks through the final image. Orange and red in the centre of the hair represent hot spots of thermal imaging on each continent. Blue and green on the top and bottom of the thermal area represent our beautiful earth and oceans. This concept is a reminder; to be more conscious of our carbon footprint; that we are the change. Nikita Bamberger | Alchemy Hair Studio Goldwell hair color, Its so easy!

In today’s fast-paced work environment, prioritising employee wellness is crucial for organisational success. Companies that focus on the health and well-being of their staff create a more engaged, productive workforce, which enhances job satisfaction, reduces turnover, and drives long-term success. Importance of Employee Wellness Increased Productivity : Employees who are physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy perform better, experiencing less stress, better focus, and fewer sick days. Higher Job Satisfaction and Retention : Wellness programs signal that employees are valued, fostering a positive culture and encouraging long-term retention. Improved Mental Health : Providing resources for mental well-being, such as stress management workshops, helps employees manage anxiety and maintain a balanced work life. Practical Strategies to Foster Employee Wellness Create a Supportive Work Environment : Leadership should model wellness, promote work-life balance, and encourage open communication to build trust and reduce stress. Promote Physical Health : Offer fitness programs, ergonomic workspaces, and healthy snacks to improve physical well-being. Implement Flexible Work Options : Flexibility in work hours or remote options helps employees balance personal and professional lives. Offer Personal Development Opportunities : Provide training, mentorship, and growth opportunities to keep employees engaged and feeling valued. Foster Social Connections : Encourage social bonding through team events or collaborative projects to create a sense of community and belonging. Encourage Time Off and Breaks : Promote regular breaks and time off to prevent burnout and ensure employees maintain a healthy work-life balance. Employee wellness goes beyond perks like gym memberships; it's about creating a supportive environment where staff feel valued and supported in all aspects of their well-being. Investing in wellness enhances productivity, fosters innovation, and contributes to a positive, sustainable workplace that benefits both employees and the organisation.
