Malaysia Hair Makeup Nail Competition 2012

The Malaysia Hair Makeup Nail Competition 2012 is organized by the APHCA Malaysia, Interexpo (M) Sdn Bhd, Malaysian Practitioner Association of Cosmetology, and in affiliation with APHCA Hair & Makeup International Competition. The competition is established to support the development of future creative stylists, makeup artist and nail technicians.

This year, the competition was held at the Beauty Expo on 29th Sept 2012 for the Junior/Student category of Retro Hair Makeup Nail category. In this category, contestants will have to showcase their skill by creating a true retro look on a female model. The look will have to be based on 1920's to 1960's theme.

Here's some of the photos taken from the event. Some of them I've done compilations since there are a few shots. Sorry it's a very bad looking collage ;_; all were done by paint *sigh* Sucks when you have a slow netbook and no photoshop ><
