Jamie says,

Words can’t really describe how I feel, this is what I've been working towards for the last 10 years so being nominated for British Hairdresser of the Year is a dream come true. To have my name against some of the legends of the industry is a massive honour and achievement and I can’t say thank you enough to everybody who’s helped me get there.
