MOST WANTED AND THE IT LIST THE <strong>2016</strong> GRAND FINAL
HISTORY<br />
IN THE<br />
MAKING<br />
Oh, what a night! On Monday 5 September the worlds<br />
of hair and fashion, salon and session, came together in<br />
perfect unison as Creative HEAD staged the Grand Final<br />
of its <strong>Most</strong> <strong>Wanted</strong> and The It List <strong>Awards</strong>. And trust us,<br />
something extraordinary happened.<br />
Fabulous winners, incredible accomplishments, a wonderful<br />
crowd, jaw-dropping surroundings… the magnificent medieval<br />
Great Hall of London’s Guildhall had never seen the like as we<br />
handed out a record-breaking 20 trophies to the brilliant teams<br />
and incredible individuals of our industry, including two for the<br />
first time to hairdressers from the Republic of Ireland.<br />
But it was the atmosphere, positivity and energy of the evening<br />
that really stood out. Truly, it felt like 600 friends had gathered<br />
together in the same room to have fun, enjoy each other’s<br />
company and to celebrate what everyone was achieving together.<br />
It was powerful, it was emotional, and we loved it.<br />
To everybody who joined us, to our fantastic sponsors, our<br />
amazing finalists and our incredible winners – thank you for<br />
making the <strong>2016</strong> <strong>Most</strong> <strong>Wanted</strong> and It List Grand Final so special.<br />
Now, this is for you!<br />

by monuments to national heroes, our guests tucked into gourmet<br />
fare served by hip London catering team The Recipe, accompanied<br />

and catch up with friends old and new.

And all aged 30 or under. Creative HEAD’s The It List, produced in exclusive<br />
collaboration with cool brand ghd, shines the spotlight on the most exciting<br />

KIRSTEN BASSETT<br />
Electric Hairdressing<br />
THE RISING STAR<br />
One day Kirsten asked boss Mark Woolley if it was okay to enter a<br />
photographic competition. He said yes, would she like to use the Electric<br />
Studio? The answer was no – she had already produced the shoot (and<br />
done the make-up) and pulled an image from her bag – which went on to<br />
win said competition and get herself a front cover and a trip to Tokyo.<br />
This Bassett is winning all sorts!<br />
“I’m still in<br />
absolute shock.<br />
I had such an<br />
incredible night –<br />
I’m honestly over<br />
the moon and<br />
appreciate it<br />
so much!”
“I feel so blessed. It<br />
was my last chance<br />
to win and I’m so<br />
happy I did it!”<br />
ISSEY HYDE<br />
London Hair Hub<br />
THE FASHIONISTA<br />
After a decade in the salon, Issey took the leap to go freelance and<br />
launch her own brand, Hair by Hyde. Life now is a mix of private clients,<br />
photoshoots (often assisting James Brown), Fashion Week shows (on the<br />
teams of Anthony Turner, Duffy, Syd Hayes and Guido) and after a session<br />
hair course with Sam McKnight, she got the chance to shoot with him.
KY WILSON<br />
The Social<br />
THE<br />
ENTREPRENEUR<br />
Ky took to London’s streets with scissors in hand and developed<br />
The Social, going on to hit the road, working at secret gigs, in a black<br />
cab and on a canal barge. Now he has residencies across the UK as well<br />
as a unit in Kendal operating under his brand (he returns monthly) and a<br />
salon in east London, and there’s a beard oil in development. Now that’s<br />
blue sKy thinking!<br />
“I’m absolutely<br />
buzzing. I’ve been<br />
nominated for two<br />
years and been trying<br />
for five, and I really<br />
didn’t expect to win,<br />
so it feels amazing”
“This was the first<br />
time I’ve entered so<br />
to win is amazing.<br />
Sacha Mascolo-<br />
Tarbuck told me to go<br />
for it, so I did, but I<br />
didn’t expect to win”<br />
SOPHIE SPRINGETT<br />
Toni&Guy<br />
THE VISIONARY<br />
Art director at Toni&Guy’s London academy, Sophie is a daily moodboard<br />
builder, starting with fabrics and materials and techniques that can be<br />
translated to hair, such as knitting, sewing, knotting and weaving. Nature<br />
and global architecture also find their place.
JOSHUA GOLDSWORTHY<br />
Goldsworthy’s<br />
THE IT GUY<br />
While Joshua selects ‘hairdresser’ as his title when buying online car<br />
insurance (keeping it real, JG!), he sees himself as “an artist, educator,<br />
performer, mentor, designer, team member and businessman”. He is<br />
the epitome of variety – one day making the TOWIE cast glam, the next<br />
working with Anthony Turner, Nabil Harlow or Gary Gill backstage.<br />
“I’ve been in the<br />
hairdressing<br />
industry for 10 years<br />
and I’ve entered so<br />
many times, so to hear<br />
my name announced<br />
as the winner is<br />
surreal but amazing”

AMY FISH<br />
George Northwood<br />
THE IT GIRL<br />
David Bowie-obsessive Amy spent nine years with Daniel Hersheson<br />
before joining celeb fave George Northwood at his own salon. A senior<br />
creative colourist, she’s worked shows with Luke Hersheson and was part<br />
of John Vial’s “colour dream team”, alongside Nicola Clarke and others at<br />
Charles Jeffrey’s first London Collections: Men show. Oh, and she turned<br />

a charity fundraiser saw a 24-hour hair marathon and they gave Leicester Animal Aid’s<br />
