The Alternative Hair Show have announced the finalists for the 2013 International Visionary Award. This award is the brainchild of Alternative Hair president, Anthony Mascolo, and was created to encourage and identify new talent and to give hairdressers the opportunity to show their artistry on stage as part of the Alternative Hair Show at the Royal Albert Hall this October.

Entries now come in from all over the world, with an exciting mix of creative and avant-garde hairstyling.
