David Antony wins Salon of the Year

David Antony Hairdressing
The David Antony Salon is celebrating after being crowned the best in The News Hair & Beauty Awards 2011, sponsored by TIGI.
The awards were created to celebrate and recognise local industry heroes who help ensure this world is a beautiful place. Hundreds of nominations came pouring in from customers keen to support their favourite salon, stylist or therapist. After all the nominations were collated, only a hair’s breadth of 48 votes separated David Antony and the runners-up United Salons.
The win has come at a great time for the salon, as it is celebrating 30 years of top quality hair and beauty in Winter Road, Southsea as well as director David Hyde’s 50th birthday.
To celebrate the salon’s anniversary, stylists wore 80s-style outfits and regular customers were charged 80s prices for their cuts before heading to the Hair & Beauty Awards at The Queens Hotel, Southsea.
Mr Hyde said,
We had a fantastic night. The team were ecstatic. I am sure the cheer could be heard all over Portsmouth!
Divisional Events Co-ordinator Sara Houghton said she was overwhelmed by how well the awards were supported by readers and their sponsor TIGI.
She added,
In the end, the professionalism, creativity and obvious client loyalty of our winning salon, along with the feel of a real family within his team, made David Antony our worthy and an extremely popular winner on the night.
