Entries for 2023 Australian Hair Fashion Awards Open This Week

It’s that time of year again for you to flex your creative muscles! The year in the Australian Hair Fashion Awards (AHFAs) process is beginning, with entries opening on Wednesday, March 1.

The awards will stay open until Monday July 31 for product categories and all the way until Monday August 7 to creative and business entries, so you have plenty of time to perfect your creative vision and show the best of your abilities to go in with the chance to win.

The live finalist announcement will take place on Sunday September 17, before a weekend of both the Mane Stage education event and the famed AHFA gala over Sunday and Monday, November 12 and 13.

The 2022 event took place in Melbourne for the very first time in its 30-year history, presenting a sold out gala evening hosted by Dyson and with O&M representing as Principle Colour Partner. One of Australia’s brightest hairdressing stars, Renya Xydis, won the title of Australian Hairdresser of the Year, while global hairdressing pioneer Errol Dougas won the 2022 Icon of the Year. An array of business, education, state, emerging, team, editorial, men’s and creative winners were also named. A highlight runway event by Dyson Styling Ambassadors Damien Rinaldo and Michael Beel was shown in collaboration with Australian fashion designers Yousef Akbar and Jason Grech.

You could be part of the 2023 cohort that stands up to accept their awards later this year. Start your editorial submissions now!
