This year’s 51st L’Oréal Colour Trophy Grand Final took place in the opulent O’Reilly Hall, UCD, Dublin and was hosted by presenter Vogue Williams.
Guests enjoyed a champagne reception, followed by a black tie gala dinner and live award show, all before a glamorous after-party at Dublin hotspot, House on Lesson Street.
Finalists competed across three categories, including the L’Oréal Men’s Image Award, the Star Award and the highly coveted L’Oréal Colour Trophy. The highlight of the evening came from leading Irish salons Davey Davey, Black Amber, Darcy’s Hair Salon and The Edge Hair Design, (Colour Collective Team) directed by Ian Brady of Cats, who joined the award-winning London-based Percy & Reed team to present a series of show-stopping runway displays.
The judging panel consisted of Siobhan Jones (Headmasters), Nathan Walker (Trevor Sorbie), Alan Edwards (Alan Edwards), Guy Kremer (Guy Kremer) and Chris Williams (Rush).
The L’Oréal Colour Trophy provides stylists and their salons with an unrivalled opportunity to showcase their talents amongst some of the most celebrated names in the business. For the second year, the overall winner will be given the chance to compete on a global scale at the L’Oréal Professionnel Business Forum in Seville, where last year’s L’Oréal Colour Trophy winners from Dylan Bradshaw, Aoife Bradley and Jenny Dawson, took home gold!
