Kao Global Creative Awards 2021: Photographic Categories Announced


Exciting news! The Kao Global Creative Awards for 2021 are going ahead, with some changes to the competition categories.

Under the new rules, every category for 2021 is a photo-only or photographic-collection entry with no live finals due to the uncertainty surrounding lockdowns.

All About Your Creativity

The foundation of the competition stays the same, with stylists free to create an entry showcasing their own unique vision and creativity.


Categories Removed from 2021 Competition

This year, two categories will be removed from the competition: the Creative Colorist of the Year and the Haircutter of the Year. Both of these were going to have a live finale which will not be possible this year.


Categories Included in 2021 Competition
