Highlighting the Next Generation of Sustainable Beauty: Intercoiffure, Green Beauty Community, and Pivot Point Support Eco-Friendly Initiative

Chicago, IL – October 2024 – The beauty industry is taking another step toward a more sustainable future with the 2024 Intercoiffure Student Contest, held in collaboration with Pivot Point International and supported by the Green Beauty Community. This year’s contest, themed “Sustainability,” encouraged students to showcase their creative talents while considering their role in promoting eco-friendly practices within the beauty profession.

Launched in 2022, the Intercoiffure Student Contest aims to connect emerging talent with the professional beauty industry, recognizing students and their instructors for their outstanding work. In 2024, the contest focused on one of the most critical issues of our time—sustainability. Students were tasked with creating looks that embody what sustainability means to them as future beauty professionals.

Finalists Championing Sustainable Beauty

This year’s finalists were recognized for their ability to integrate sustainability into their creative process. They presented designs using Pivot Point’s CAP SERIES, the industry’s most eco-friendly mannequins. These innovative mannequins feature a space-saving design, are easy to transport, and offer customizable mix-and-match head and hair forms. They are also fully recyclable, thanks to Pivot Point’s collaboration with Green Circle Salons, a leader in salon waste recycling. The CAP SERIES mannequins are available to beauty schools, supporting the beauty industry’s ongoing commitment to environmental responsibility.

Contest finalists included:

Mary Riccardelli (@birdsnest.hairct) from the International Institute of Cosmetology, mentored by instructor Keisha Griner.
Chelsea Logiodice (@chelsea_1323) from The Institute of Beauty and Wellness, mentored by instructor Ashley Nielsen.
Victoria Salinas (@t.hair.us) from Wahl Barber Academy, mentored by instructor Samson Dante.
Iris Tong (@iristeahair) from Marca College Hair and Esthetics, mentored by instructor Klaudia Tracewicz.

And The Winner Is…

The grand prize winner was Kenleigh Franse (@hairbykenleigh) from the Tennessee School of Beauty, mentored by instructor Lindsey Moore (@lindso0110). She stood out with her innovative and environmentally conscious design, earning recognition onstage at the prestigious Intercoiffure Fall Atelier in New York.

“Having the opportunity to be part of this contest has been such an incredible experience. And I’m so thankful that Pivot Point and Intercoiffure provide students like me with such special opportunities like this one. While working on this project, I took inspiration from nature and incorporated it into my mannequin’s final look to represent sustainability and what it means to me. I definitely faced some challenges while making my vision come to life. However, I’m so thankful that I kept going because, in the end, it was all worth it. Winning this competition has made me realize that even as a cosmetology student, there is still so much opportunity out there and that I am capable of accomplishing things bigger than myself.” – Kenleigh Franse

“I want to thank Intercoiffure and Pivot Point for giving students a platform and opportunity to showcase their talent. And getting their name out there before they even graduate beauty school!” – Lindsey Moore

Subject Matter Expert Judges

The contest’s judging panel was composed of influential industry leaders. This included Jason Russell, Senior Product Experience Manager at Pivot Point, Hannah Craik from the Green Beauty Community, Perry Monge, Chairperson of Intercoiffure Nouveau, and Anna Pacitto, Artistic Director of Intercoiffure. Their expertise ensured that the selected finalists not only excelled in creativity but also demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainability.

“We are thrilled to see the next generation of beauty professionals embrace sustainability as part of their creative journey,” said Jason Russell of Pivot Point International. “This contest not only showcases their incredible talents but also highlights their awareness of the role our industry can play in creating a greener future.”

Insights From Career Counselors

Concerns about college debt, the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on traditional white-collar careers, and questions about the value of a college education have reshaped the conversation about choosing beauty as a career in 2024.

In both 2023 and 2024, the Pivot Point Research Team and Beauty Cast Network (BCN) conducted research at the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Annual Conference. Their aim was to understand the interest in vocational education versus traditional college pathways, gather thoughts on the beauty industry, and determine the information needed to best promote careers in beauty.

The research highlights a strong interest in beauty careers (hairdressing, barbering, nails, skincare, and massage) as viable and rewarding alternatives to traditional college degrees. It also underscores the need for more information about beauty industry programs to guide students effectively.

This research can help inform policymakers about the value of beauty as a career in 2024. It also provides affirmation that these careers should be recognized as first-choice options.
