British Hairdressing Awards
The British Hairdressing Awards were set up to reward hairdressers who were pushing the boundaries of hairdressing, creating and setting the trends in this competitive industry. There are nine regional categories that cover all areas of the UK, six specialist categories that incorporate a variety of disciplines including Afro, Men's and Avant-Garde, and the most prestigious award — British Hairdresser of the Year, which is recognised throughout the world.
Good Salon Guide salons regularly come out on top at the British Hairdressing Awards; in 2008 alone there were 40 Good Salon Guide finalists in the sixteen categories — four of which were nominations for the high-status British Hairdresser of the Year title. This title has been held a whopping 16 times by hairdressers from Good Salon Guide recognised salons since its launch in 1985.
The British Hairdresser of the Year title is currently held by Akin Konizi of Five Star Good Salon Guide group HOB Salons.
The British Hairdressing Awards 2010 will be held on Monday 22nd November at Grosvenor House, A JW Marriott Hotel, London
L'Oréal Colour Trophy
The L'Oréal Professionnel Colour Trophy competition has made an impression on the hairdressing world since it began back in 1954. Now, stronger than ever, it recognises an exceptional level of British hairdressing with categories including the Men's Image Award, Young Colourist's Award and from this year, the Mizani Afro Catwalk Award.
In 2008 Five Star Good Salon Guide Chelmsford group MACK Hairdressing won the coveted L'Oréal Colour Trophy.
