Published
16th Aug 2020

Every year the Fellowship for British Hairdressing celebrates the creativity and talent of its members with the Image Awards. But this year there is a new category to celebrate the best of men's hair.
For 2020, the competitions are back – but to acknowledge the challenging circumstances of the last few months, some positive changes have been made to keep the awards fresh, relevant and more accessible, to more people, than ever.
All categories can be entered directly through Instagram, making it quick and simple to enter.
There are new categories too, Men's Image of the Year celebrates the best in Men’s work and The Lockdown Look is a one-off category for 2020.
This year, the categories are as follows.
The Lockdown Look
A one-off category for 2020, giving members the opportunity to show off the work they created in lockdown on a mannequin head, family member – or whoever else they were stuck at home with!
Men’s Image of the Year
Another new category, this time for professional photoshoots with a focus on men's hair. Members can submit three images, of any type of hair, created any time and shot professionally. It’s OK if they have been entered in any other competition.
The Snapshot Competition
Back for its second year, this category is for any non-professional image of hair – looks created for live shows, clients or any other non-studio work. Owing to the lack of live events this year, any previous work can be entered for this category.
