Prepare for the supervised online workflow.

Confirmed online guidance

Keep the official workflow in view.

1. Check your selected categories and contact details in your confirmation. Contact the Browista team if anything needs correcting.
2. For the nine latex-based online categories, organizers will assign official sealed, individually numbered latex. Keep it sealed until an organizer instructs you to open it during your supervised session.
3. Prepare two devices: one for continuous Zoom supervision and a second for photographing, filming and uploading your finished work.
4. Plan to join Zoom at least 30 minutes before your assigned start time so an organizer can verify your identity, applicable sealed latex or live model, equipment and workspace.
5. Keep your hands and workspace visible on the continuous Zoom camera. Follow the live code, start and stop instructions exactly; final category timing and camera rules will come in your assignment packet.
6. Submit through your assigned secure upload link within the official submission window. The window and file requirements are not defined yet; do not use an unassigned or public link.
7. For latex-based categories, retain the original latex until organizers confirm that the results process is complete.
8. Keep copies of your portfolio and healed-result photos organized by technique. These are for your own preparation; official submission requirements will follow.
9. Make a list of questions about your category, judging, equipment and preparation for the Browista team.
10. Do not book non-refundable travel or purchase event-specific supplies until the specific venue in Newport Beach and category rules are confirmed.

Registration is open

Review the current terms before paying.

This overview helps you prepare, but the registration terms govern checkout. The minimum score, detailed category rules and schedule will follow before competition.

• Competitors must be at least 18 and have relevant training or experience. Licensing or certification must be current where the competitor’s category or jurisdiction requires it.
• Each competitor may enter a maximum of two U.S. categories.
• Entry fees reserve the competitor’s category and position and are generally non-refundable. If the organizer cancels the event, the registration fee is refunded in full.
• A registration may be transferred to an eligible competitor with written organizer approval when requested at least 30 days before the event. Category changes depend on available space; registrations cannot move to a future event.
• If the organizer postpones the event, registration carries forward to the new date and any other available options will be communicated.
• The California final date is confirmed for March 6, 2027; the specific venue in Newport Beach is still to be announced. Anyone who registers before the official event date and venue are both announced may request a full registration-fee refund or an approved transfer to another eligible competitor within seven calendar days after the specific venue is announced. This window has not started. After that window, the fee is non-refundable except if Browista cancels the event. Eligible-competitor transfers remain subject to written approval and the standard 30-day pre-event deadline outside this early window.
• The registration fee includes the online qualifying round and California final entry if the competitor advances. Each latex-based category includes its own official numbered/sealed competition latex and one standard U.S. shipment to the competitor. Henna / Dye / Lamination uses a live model instead of latex and does not require a latex kit.
• Competitors cover travel, accommodation, live models and personal supplies. Replacement latex, expedited shipping and international shipping are separate charges.
• No kit has been assigned or dispatched. Category-specific equipment, model and submission instructions will follow in the official assignment packet.
