IHF opens applications for its Star Team 2023

The Irish Hairdressers Federation (IHF) has launched its search for its Star Team 2023.
Applications are now open for the competition, which can be entered by all trainee stylists currently undergoing training, who will still be undergoing training by November 2023.
According to the IHF, Star Team is not just about ability – it is about the person and their potential. The organisation said it is looking for dynamic individuals who will make an impact on the future of the industry in Ireland.
Meanwhile, the IHF has also announced the winners of its Junior Stylist Star Team Challenge 2022.
The competition, which took place from 14 to 28 February, saw junior stylists create looks based on chosen themes on a model, mannequin or themselves, and then upload the image to Instagram. The four themes were Editorial, Movie/TV, Met Gala and Upstyle.
The winning junior stylists are Lilith Lavinia from Origin Hair Design in Cork (Editorial); Shannon Power from Divine Hair in Waterford (Movie/TV); Lisa Millington from Foundation in Dublin (Met Gala); and Caoimhe Feeley from Salon2 in Sligo (Upstyle).
