American Crew All-Star Challenge Finalists Announced!
Published
11th Mar 2020
Last Monday MB had the massive privilege to judge hundreds of entries for the American Crew All-Star Challenge competition. The Annual photographic competition asks barbers and stylists to share their vision of total look that best represents today's American Crew customer. MB editor Rachel Gould has judged every year for the last four years and seen the quality and diversity of the entries increase every year. Rachel said "I always appreciate the work, thought, talent and vision in a photographic entry. It takes bravery to share your work, knowing that others are going to mark it. There was a huge change this year in the types of work being submitted and it was exciting. Longer lengths, un-blended napes, strong internal shapes and one or two gender neutral entries. I am grateful to every barber and stylist that shared their work and I would like to congratulate the twelve finalists."
The UK & Ireland Final takes place in London on 16th March 2020.
