World's most creative hairstylists revealed

Almost three thousand hairdressers from around the world gathered over the weekend in Vienna, to attend what is considered one of the most inspiring events for stylists – the Global Zoom Event.

One of the highlights from the weekend was Goldwell’s renowned Colour Zoom Challenge, a competition that sees hairstylists from all over the globe come together to show off their amazing flair with colour. On Sunday, all 91 national finalists from 38 different countries competed live, interpreting the REMIX collection which takes inspiration from Pop art and graphic minimalism.
