EOHCB Competition Report Back and Results


The Employers’ Organisation for Hairdressing, Cosmetology and Beauty hosted numerous hair and beauty competitions during 2019.

The first competition kicked of in our Free State division, Bloemfontein and we ended our competition season with the National EOHCB Hair & Beauty Championships in Midrand, Gauteng.

We hosted various sections making provisions for the entire industry whether you are a beginner or a master in hairdressing, make-up artistry, nail technology or waxing!

The EOHCB continuously strives to provide platforms for our members and the industry where a variety of skills, knowledge, techniques, experience and passion is shared with common purpose; attempt to improving the standards and recognition of the industry by connecting those who play a pivotal role in securing the foundation and laying the building blocks.

Our divisional and bi-annual national competitions is yet another platform where we display and empower the above mentioned. The EOHCB wishes to congratulate each and every individual who entered, competed and placed in our divisional and national competition. We wish to thank our members for their continuous support and for encouraging their employees to enter our competitions. Thank you to the 2019 judges and wisemen who assisted with ensuring fair and consistent application and judgement of the rules and work presented and to each and every operational person who has contributed to the success of these competitions.

A special thanks to all our sponsors whom without it would be extremely difficult for the EOHCB to create, manage and host these prestigious competitions. We are grateful and appreciative and value the relationships we have built with our sponsors. The EOHCB wishes to give recognition to the top 3 placements and overall winners in the respective divisions that they have entered and the national competition.
