Wella trendvision southern regional finalists revealed

After a tour of major cities in the UK, WellaTrendVision came to the historic Grand Connaught Rooms in London's Covent Garden for the Southern regional final. Already successful in a photographic round earlier this year, the finalists recreated their looks to judges including Nicky Clarke, Angelo Vallillo, Joseph Ferraro and Colin McAndrew. This year there were four categories - Runway and Male Grooming, new and exclusive to the UK, and Creative Vision and Color Vision. As well as the finalists presenting their looks live on the runway in front of the press and their peers, the audience were treated to shows by two of the most inspiring teams in British hairdressing, Akin Konizi and the HOB Salons team, and Darren Ambrose and the D&J Ambrose team. The winners from all the regional events will go on to the UK and Ireland final at legendary music venue The Roundhouse in September, with the ultimate winner in Creative Vision and Color Vision representing their country at the international final at Salon International in October.
