Established in 2001 by leading industry magazine Creative HEAD, the Most Wanted awards celebrate the most exceptional, progressive, and game-changing hair talents in the UK and Ireland. And now, the 2024 finalists been named, including Curated Hair, in the Best Customer Experience category.
A total of 16 Most Wanted categories recognise a multitude of disciplines, from creative skill and commercial acumen, to education, the client experience, and a commitment to sustainability. The awards not only shine a spotlight on hairdressing business owners breathing life into the high street, but on the session stylists setting global trends, and the individuals, whose skills and smiles transform thousands of lives every single day.
Entries are judged by dozens of experts – influential names in hair, fashion, business and media. This year’s panels included Cassie Steer, acting head of beauty at Grazia; entrepreneur, broadcaster and journalist, Ateh Jewel; talent agents from A&R Creative, Premier Hair and Make-up and LGA Management; leading salon owners Nicola Clarke and Paul Percival; renowned barbers Hayden Cassidy and Baldy; and session artists Neil Moodie and John Vial; among many others.
We recently joined fellow finalists at the Most Wanted and It List Grand Final. The Grand Final brings together an all-star guest list of more than 700 names to celebrate the crowning of the 2024 winners.
“The Most Wanted Awards hits different – we salute and celebrate artistic talent, innovation and original
thinking across ALL the industry. From salon teams to entrepreneurs, colourists to barbers, educators to green heroes, freelancers to session stylists, we see them ALL, and give them the platform they deserve. The competition is always fierce, so grabbing a place as a finalist? That is an incredible achievement, and one they can properly celebrate at an event like no other – the Most Wanted Grand Final.” – Amanda Nottage, editorial director, Creative HEAD.
