The Goldwell hair care team has announced the 2012 Color Zoom Challenge US Semi-Finalists. This year the United States received a record number of entries in the three Color Zoom Challenge Categories: Creative Colorist, Partner Colorist and New Talent. Goldwell hair care experts brought together a prestigious judging panel that included: Goldwell Brand Celebrity Stylist, Rona O’Connor; Special Creative Artist, Nick Arrojo; Co-Founder of Hairbrained.me, Randy Taylor; as well as an esteemed team of industry media editors.
The submissions of the Semi-Finalists (5 from each of the three categories) will now be sent to Global Headquarters to be judged by an International Panel. This independent group of industry experts and international stylists will select one winner for each category to represent the United States at the 2012 Color Zoom Finale Live Competition in London, England on October 13th, 2012. Beauty Launchpad congratulates the 2012 Semi-Finalists.
