Zara Keating Named FAME Team 2027 Semi-Finalist

House of Colour Stylist Zara Keating Reaches FAME Team 2027 Semi-Final

We’re delighted to announce that Zara Keating of House of Colour has reached the FAME Team 2027 semi-final! Zara is based at our Jervis Street salon in Dublin, where she brings her creativity and expertise to every client.

The Fellowship for British Hairdressing’s FAME Team is a fantastic opportunity for emerging hairdressing talent, with entries from across the UK and Ireland. Only four other Irish hairdressers have previously reached the semi-final, making this a brilliant achievement for Zara.

Well done, Zara — we’re incredibly proud of you!

Zara says, “To get this far is such an amazing opportunity, and I’m so, so grateful. I can’t wait to see everyone again at Salon International!”

The annual FAME Team event always creates an incredible creative buzz throughout our salons. It’s a chance for stylists to push boundaries, experiment with new ideas and keep challenging what’s possible in hairdressing.

That creative spirit is a huge part of life at House of Colour. We’re endlessly proud of our talented stylists and the passion, skill and creativity they bring to their work.

Eight finalists will now go head-to-head in the final stage under project leader Lesley Jennison, with the 2027 FAME Team members revealed at the Fellowship Luncheon and Awards during Salon International on 4 October 2026.

The finalists will face a series of challenges on stage before showcasing their creativity and technique in a two-minute presentation for the judges and live audience. The current FAME Team, led by Christel Barron-Hough, will also take to the stage to share a showcase celebrating their journey, development and achievements over the past year.

We’ll be cheering Zara on as she takes the next step in her FAME Team 2027 journey.
