Over 2,200 entries from across the country have flooded the mannequinmania.com website and the mail boxes of the Mannequin Mania team. The caliber of talent, passion, and creativity showcased in each entry made it extremely difficult to narrow it down to just 12 semi-finalists. In each of the four categories (stylist; salon team; student; Matrix friends & family) 3 semi-finalist were chosen. Each semi-finalist is awarded $1,000 and their entry is automatically entered into to the finals. Pretty cool, huh?

So how are they going to pick a winner you ask? A judges panel of industry leaders, including our very own Mary Rector-Gable, will then select the finalists, in each category. Then it is up to America, and YOU, to choose the ultimate Matrix Mannequin Masters, and the winners of the grand prize of $25,000 and a day with stylist icon and Matrix Mannequin Mania celebrity judge, Tabatha.

Now don’t fret if you are not one of the stylists selected as semi-finalists because the entries automatically roll-over into the following month for another chance to be selected! Each month for the remainder of the entry portion of the contest, which ends July, 31, new semi-finalists will be chosen. Not sure where to begin?
