KAO Salon Division Presents the SA Winners of the National Division of the Global Creative Awards


A New Global Competition to Showcase the Unlimited Creativity

Presented By KAO Salon Division


The theme this year of the Global Creative Awards is TURN YOUR VISION INTO ART


Three things separate a true creative artist from a dreamer:

extraordinarily creative ideas, the ability to bring them to life, and doing it so well that it inspires others to reach for greatness too.

IMAGINE, CREATE AND INSPIRE.


And now we celebrate the winners of the National Division of the Technical Categories on this global stage! These brilliant creatives from our own national industry have competed first at the national level, and the Gold winners will move on to the international live competition.


Let’s meet our South African technical category winners and celebrate their amazing achievements!
