Australian Modern Barber Awards

The AMBA (AUSTRALIAN MODERN BARBER AWARDS) launched in 2021 to provide the Australian Barber and Men’s hairdressing Industry a much needed and often requested benchmark of excellence and platform to showcase their creative and business skills. With categories including the Australian Modern Barber of the Year and the Australian Modern Barber Business of the Year, these awards have been launched due to industry demand and will be judged by an independent panel of judges, media, PR, business specialists, national and international barbers and specialists in the barbering industry.
