FASHION WARRIOR by hotshots

The Team crowned at last years’ AHIA Gala finally got together to create their beautiful editorial collection to grace the pages and cover of Hair Biz with renowned photographer Andrew O’Toole. Having already received their prize packs of a Goldwell styling kit, ghd electrical kit, Excellent Edges full scissor kit and an Amazing Hair editorial styling kit, while in the HOT SHOTS House, they were visited by iconic hairdressing greats both in real life and via zoom. Now, finally culminating in an all-expenses paid photoshoot with world class photographer Andrew O’Toole, the team spend a few precious days together again to create sheer beauty in a collection that evolved through the creative process before and during the shoot. With a fun day of prep at the Goldwell Studios in Melbourne, the team, led by Ali Holmes, Wildlife Sogo, created a stunning mix of colour, length and precision cutting resulting in a collection that could easily grace any high-end fashion magazine in the world! Following zoom catchups and conversations, when this close-knit team met, they were guided and mentored by Andrew allowing their piece of work to organically take them in a direction of beauty and hair fashion trends. As part of the HOT SHOTS journey, this experience is truly priceless and something that will be remembered and treasured for amny years to come by the team! Special thanks to everyone who played a role in making this dream become a reality! TEAM MEMBERS. Evie Golding, Eliza Andrews, Leanne Kay and Scott Sheehy CREATIVE DIRECTORS. Ali Holmes PHOTOGRAPHER.
