Sussex Salon Awards 2019
The annual Sussex Salon Awards 2019 took place at the exquisite Grand Brighton, where the winners were revealed in thrilling style.
The Salon Awards seek and reward remarkable hair professionals for individual, business and team accomplishments. Co-hosted by Kate Jeffery and Errol Douglas MBE, guests arrived to a stunning cocktail reception with canapés in the Pavilion overlooking the sea. They were treated to some amazing entertainment and culinary brilliance, before the winners were unveiled.
Kate Jeffery, Salon Awards Director, said:
It was amazing to return to Sussex for the second year. The atmosphere was incredible, everyone arrived in celebration mode and supported each other the whole way through the night, such a community vibe it was just brilliant! I can’t wait to come back next year.
The Sussex Salon Awards is the third event of the 2019 season. We have already been to Surrey and the West Midlands, with Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Yorkshire and Essex to follow across the remainder of October and November. There are a total of seven Salon Awards events in 2019, which together attract more than 1,200 hairdressers, barbers and salon owners in attendance.
The Salon Awards are supported by sponsors Great Lengths, Clean IT and Barry Jeffery Photography, and entries are judged by a panel of hair industry professionals, business gurus, and prolific business owners alike, including Errol Douglas MBE, David Drew, Karine Jackson, Carolyn Newman and Craig Chapman to name a few. The Salon Awards ethos is to provide a fair and accessible competition for all.
