See the online categories How it works

You may enter as many categories as you wish - the number is not limited. Each category means a separate piece of work and a separate fee of 249 PLN, from 249 PLN for one category to 1494 PLN for all six.

All categories are held at OPEN level. There is no split into Master and Expert, so you compete regardless of how long you have worked in the industry. You can also compete in the Live Championships at the same time.

Six categories

How it works

1. You register and pay for the categories you choose - one, several or all six.
2. You carry out the work according to the competition task for your category. You may submit work completed earlier, provided you hold the full set of required documentation, including the BEFORE photograph.
3. You document it - the number and type of materials is set out in the instructions for your category. In categories 01-05 this is 5 photographs and one short verification video. In Youthful lip modelling - flat technique it is 9 photographs and 3 videos.
4. You send it in as a separate set for each category, through the channel indicated in the category instructions.
5. You wait for the results - announced during the Gala Night on 28.11.2026, individual scoring by 11.12.2026.

The most important rules

• Judging is anonymous. The jury does not know your first name, surname, salon name or social media profile. The Organiser handles the anonymisation - you do not receive a contestant code and you do not place anything on the photographs.
• The work must be yours and new to this competition. It must not have taken part in other championships or been submitted as competition work elsewhere.
• Publication embargo until 28.11.2026. You do not publish the work before the official announcement of the results.
• No retouching of the result. Cropping and rotation are fine. Retouching the effect, beauty filters and AI that changes the work being judged are not.
• You keep the original files until 31.12.2026 and make them available on justified request.
• The verification video is not judged by the jury. It serves only to confirm that the photographs and the work concern the same person.
• Each jury sheet has 10 criteria worth 10 points each, up to 100 points from one judge. The full criteria are set out in the Rules and Regulations.

Online results count towards the Grand Prix

The Online Championships do not have a separate Grand Prix. Your online results count towards the Amber Eyes Grand Prix classification, which combines on-site and remote entries. To qualify you must compete in at least 2 Live categories and 1 Online category belonging to the relevant classification.
