Shay Dempsey- Global Ambassador and Artistic Director for Sebastian Professionals:
Beautiful Composition. Love the clothing, love the background, love the detail in the hair. Just the general shape is very appealing. The detail that was in that top section, the use of leather very Sebastian.

I put my heart and soul into this look and I’m so glad the judges could see my vision. Even though this year was completely different, I loved every minute of it and it’s so good to finish on the high.
I cannot tell you how much this means to me, its definitely the proudest moment in my career. I can’t thank Joseph enough to always supporting me, as I could not have done it without him.
