If you wish to save your entry and return to it, set up your profile before starting your entry

Keep your answers clear and concise, no waffle allowed!

Provide anecdotal and numerical evidence to support your entry

Provide good quality high resolution images, as they might end up in print in Modern Barber

For the photographic entries give it your best shot and do it in hi res (300DPI). Don’t forget that the point of your images is showcasing your awesome hair skills. Style over content won’t win the day.

BARBERFEST

MONDAY  5 JULY

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE INDUSTRY ON MONDAY

A unique blend of learning, inspiration, brand experiences and networking – BARBERFEST is your kind of event.

We listened hard about the stuff you love about events, and the stuff you don’t. We know you want to immerse yourself in both creative and business education, so we’ve got two separate stages – the Modern Barber Inspiration Stage and the Business Learning Stage. You want to get to know brands that will help you build your business and make your life easier. So we’ve got pop-up stands from brands including Andis and Takara Belmont, as well as separate learning zones. And finally, we know you want a place to hang out and chat with your industry peers and drink a beer (no pressure though!), so you’ll love the (two!) Networking Hubs, which are sponsored by MVRCK by Mitch and PPL PRS.

BRAND POP-UPS INCLUDE

Takara Belmont

Axiom Men’s Groomin

Kovas

Mike Taylor Education
