U.S. Finalists Announced For 2017 Goldwell Color Zoom!

The nine U.S. GOLD, SILVER and BRONZE finalists in the 2017 Goldwell Color Zoom Challenge have been announced by the Goldwell Expert Panel, and you can see them all in the slideshow above!

For the competition, leading hair colorists from across the country submitted their entries for one of three categories—Creative Colorist, New Talent Colorist and Partner Colorist. Stylists were challenged to interpret the IN-FLUX theme and create a style that defies the conventions of color, shape, cut and texture.

In June, applicants were narrowed down to 15 semi-finalists by a panel of industry expert. Following the semi-finalist round, the Goldwell Hair Color Global judges’ panel selected three GOLD, SILVER and BRONZE U.S. finalists, one for each category.

All three U.S. GOLD finalists will compete in the live 2017 Color Zoom International Competition in Barcelona, Spain on Oct. 8. There, contestants will have the opportunity to demonstrate their creativity and compete against other GOLD finalists from around the world for a spot on the Global Color Zoom Creative Team.
