Young trainee claims double top spot in national competition

The month of May has gotten off to a fantastic start here at Bridget Haren Hair & Beauty! Our youngest trainee David Amer has claimed first place in the Mirror Mirror Mannequin Hair Photographic competition. It’s an unbelievable achievement for his first competition entry and we are all so so proud of him.

David was named the winner in the Cut & Colour category with his mannequin entitled ‘Midnight Sky’. The original colour of the mannequin was light blonde. The colour was created using an ombre technique with rEvolution True Blue on the roots with a mixture of True Blue and Pure Green to create a teal colour for the ends. The cut was created incorporating an undercut on all of the underneath with square layering on the top of the head. The outfit is ostrich feathers lending itself to the theme of sophistication.

Make up was done by Linda Lafferty and the photographer is Kestutis Anuzis.

And if that wasn’t enough, David also claimed second place in the Fantasy category in the same competition with his piece which included basket weaving technique, braiding and plaits in two distinct colours; red and black. The black flower hair was varnished and moulded into separate pieces which were then glued together.

This was David’s first competition entry and we are thrilled with his success!
