A round up of The Mane Event: Central Hair Competition 2023

Central Hair Competition 2023 Winner Kaci Wood

The Central Hair Competition 2023 got off to a great start with 67 entries received in total. Entries were received from students throughout our Central Hairdressing Academy network with some great hair designs coming through; it’s no wonder why we won the Best Hair and Beauty Apprenticeship Provider Award at the 2023 AAC National Apprenticeship Awards😜

Central Hair Competition goes online

The Central Hair Competition is no new event. It has been around for years! Previously, the Central Hair Competition was an in-person event held at a venue where students would prepare their models with hair and makeup to then be judged by a board of panellists. The event culminated with several winners being announced in an award ceremony.

Sadly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the competition has not taken place for a few years. However, this year we’re back with a fresh new take on things. We’ve ditched the in-person event and award ceremony and taken the competition to Instagram!

She was greeted with £1000 💷 CASH by our director Martin Kolton MBE.

Congratulations again Kaci 💫

See the moment when Chairman Martin Kolton (MBE) visited Central Hairdressing Herts & Beds to tell Kaci she won and present her with a wad of cash!

I wanted to create and unique style that wasn't a traditional hair up, which gave the WOW FACTOR. With this creation I wanted to include three tiers to maximise the volume and height, and give a little edge with a braid. Using research I took inspiration from different images and put them together and added my own visions for the final design.

We are so pleased that we’ve been able to bring the Central Hair Competition back! It is one of our students favourite events to get involved with. We will be returning again next year! So watch this space!
