Things you need to know
All entrants (first name, photo and reason for entering) will be posted on Gorgeous Me's website competition page, and also announced on Gorgeous Me's Facebook page and may be featured on Essential Mums' website and Facebook page. The competition will then be opened for public voting. Voting closes Friday 2 May 2014.
The winner will be chosen by the judges based on votes AND your reason for wanting a makeover, your story. A Gorgeous Me makeover will help you realise your full potential.
The makeover takes place on 14 and 16 May 2014 in Wellington. The winner is responsible for making their own way to Wellington and accommodation. We apologise to those that cannot make it to Wellington.
You need to be open to a new hair style - cut and colour. Don't worry, you'll be in very safe hands with the wonderful team at Kristina Raffaele.
You have to be ready and in the mindset for big change; we can't stress this enough. Whilst you are pampered throughout the makeover, it is not a pampering session. The makeover is designed to unleash the potential in you. In your mind, you have to be ready for and committed to change. And don't under estimate what a change it can be.
