Irish Hairdressers Federation Star Team 2025 open for applications

Updated on 06th May 2025

Applications are now open for the Irish Hairdressers Federation (IHF) Star Team 2025.

According to the IHF, the Star Team competition celebrates the next generation of superstars. Aimed at those who are still undergoing training, it is not solely determined by current ability, but rather by ambition, enthusiasm and passion for the industry. The organisation is encouraging trainees and apprentices of varying skill sets and experience to apply.

Entrants need to initially fill out an online application form. This is followed by an interview with the judging panel in June. Those who progress to the next stage will be invited to the semi-finals in July to showcase a colour and cut.

In August, finalists will then be required to showcase their skills to the judges in two parts – first, they must present an upstyle and blow-dry model, before then proceeding to the final interview with the panel.

Five individuals will be chosen for the Star Team and applications are open until 31 May.
