The LIVE show
TrendVision is called the biggest and best showcase for hairdressing talent. Stylists have three hours to present their vision and creativity to the judges and audience, which includes styling with Wella products, makeup and wardrobe.
The categories
Colour Vision recognises the best in class for colour work with a focus on beautiful, wearable and inspiring looks.
Creative Vision offers finalists the freedom to express their creativity with either a cut and finish, or styling hair with an editorial catwalk feel.
83 finalists from around the world will compete and represent their countries on a global stage
Here is what our national winners had to say about their journey to TrendVision International.
COLOUR CATEGORY
EXCENTRIC CAPE TOWN - FLORIN-CHRISTEN NEACSU
I started my career in 2007 with my brother, Soso, a top stylist in Romania. Being very passionate about the science behind the hair and the techniques that define perfection with precision, I started to attend over 30 international seminars. Some of them were in London, at Vidal Sassoon Master Academy, Toni&Guy, Artist Academy and Wella Romania, but also Wella South Africa including Wella Master Colour. My biggest achievement is when I manage to create extreme beauty out of ordinary.

CREATIVE CATEGORY
BEAUTIFUL CHAOS BLONDE - TRISTAN JADE HAWKINS
After 11 years in the hair industry, my passion and hunger for knowledge and creativity still grows each year. Challenges are what excite me, and I love to succeed, showing my children that you can achieve anything that you dream of. Inspiring others to create, rather than recreate has been one of my ethos since "day one".
