Global Experience 2022

In Uncategorized by Nicky

Putting depth of feeling into their ethos of being a family, Kao Salon Division has hosted their first live Global Experience since the Pandemic. Gathering some 2300 hairdressers in Amsterdam this weekend the company presented a three-day fiesta of competition, artist presentations and product development. The perfect cocktail to inspire can celebrate our industry. And we were with them every step!

At the heart of the KSGE is the meld of creativity and technique. On the middle night of the weekend we enjoyed a the Global Creative Awards (formerly Global Zoom), which added hugely to the energy and excitement. A vibrant show was heart-warming and jaw-dropping with shows from global ambassadors, the announcement of gold, silver and bronze winners in several competition categories. Here are the highlights for Tribu-te Magazine:

Angelo presents his film

Global Goldwell Ambassador Angelo Seminara brought his vision of individuality through ’emotional creativity’ with a show that moved from film to live in a multi-media presentation.  Anglo spoke about how he is inspired by the individuality of emotions and its ability to shape and mould the creative process. He calls this ‘HAIR EVERY WEAR 2.0.’ and you can see it online in the coming days.

“I look at people as one because I am a people person, and I believe in a world without preference and prejudice,” Angelo said in regard to the inspiration behind the film. “Hair Every Wear 2.0 embraces that feeling, where everyone is unique and everyone is free to be whoever they want to be. It’s going to bring you an emotion, and from an emotion it becomes a feeling, and from a feeling, it becomes a piece of art.

Mario Krankl

A declaration of love for Goldwell and a teaser for the Brand ́s 75th anniversary coming up in 2023, Mario Krankl took us away to his “creative hair factory”, a dream world where anything is possible when it comes to hair and creativity. ’In my presentation, the square of the Goldwell logo was one of the creative key elements. You can find it in the shapes of the hair and in the fashion as a token of appreciation to my strong partner“, said Goldwell Ambassador Mario Krankl.
