There is a fee of £18 (inc VAT) to enter the Colour World Genius Awards 2024, per entry.

    Your entry in this category will be judged first by how many views you have on Instagram. Then in the second round by a panel of industry experts judging a hair picture you submit.

    Awarded to the colourist who persuades us they are the best at sharing their colour know-how, ideas and passion with the industry and beyond.

    Awarded to the colourist who demonstrates professional skills with their work on Afro hair in particular. Show us how you have an eye for enhancing shape, texture and line with a head-turning look. Consumer or avant-garde – it’s up to you
