HJ Reports: Wella TrendVision 2025 UK & Ireland Awards

The winners of the Wella Professionals UK & Ireland TrendVision Award 2025 have been announced at London’s legendary Natural History Museum, in front of an audience of over 500 hair professionals

Throughout the day, finalists showcased their skills in the live competition, preparing models with precision and flair, before a night at the museum hosted by hairdressing icons Patrick Cameron and Fergal Doyle. “Can you believe we’re here? This building, this talent, this energy - it’s going to be an unforgettable night,” opened Patrick.

Finalists, industry legends, and salon stars came together to honour the very best in hair artistry. From the impressive venue to the glamour of the guests, every detail reflected the prestige of Wella’s most anticipated event of the year.

MAKE IT YOU

SHAPE YOUR WORLD

“This evening is about more than awards,” said Max Amen, Wella Company General Manager UK & Ireland, as he welcomed the crowd. “It’s about recognising the brilliance of our winners, celebrating the craft at the heart of our industry, and honouring both the icons and the rising stars who inspire us all. As the No.1 Salon Colour Brand in the UK*, we are here because of your trust, passion, and partnership. Tonight is a true celebration of talent and togetherness.”

The evening began with a drinks reception in the Earth Hall providing an opportunity for guests to mingle and take in the museum’s impressive exhibits followed by an intimate sit-down gala dinner. From Natasha Grossman (HOB Salons), podcast host Dom Lehane, Scottish legend Charlie Taylor, Francesco Group’s Mia Dellicompagni and Anya Campbell to Lara Johnson’s Tilly Capel and Medusa’s multi-award-winning Colin McAndrew, the hosting lineup was a who’s who of Wella family excellence.

SURREAL COLOUR

This year’s the TrendVision Final paid homage to Wella’s 145-year legacy with immersive visuals that celebrated the brand’s rich history. But the spotlight was firmly on the future, with three spectacular shows and 25 breathtaking models redefining what’s next in hair. Shape Your World was a dynamic collaboration between Sebastian and Koleston Perfect, led by Simon Tuckwell, Pedro Pinpao, Guy Kleinhaus, Dom Capel, and colour direction by Nikki Clifford, the show marked a new era of styling possibilities. Make It You brought to life by James Earnshaw, Michelle Thompson, and Calum Tierney was a powerful exploration of hair as identity and personal expression. Their models turned the museum’s hall into a living canvas of individuality and artistry. Finally Surreal Colour: A Celebration of Emerging Talent showcased a vibrant tribute to rising stars, spotlighting the 2024 TVA winners who had been mentored by Wella’s leading guest artists. Nine striking models graced the stage, each one a living canvas of bold, imaginative colour work crafted with the full power of the Wella portfolio. The result? A breathtaking fusion of artistry and innovation by STIL, HOB Academy and Sassoon Academy that set the tone for the future of colour.
