Salon manager Paula Wood said: “We’re over the moon. I am very proud.

“The Northern Hair and Beauty Awards are new so it came as a shock to us to be finalists as we have not asked for clients to vote for us but they did.

“I am really lucky to have such great team.

“We are close-knit, like a family. Everyone gels together and complements each other.

“Personality wise, it just works.

“We are all getting excited about these awards and getting our clients excited.

“Both these awards are in November so it’s going to be a crazy month for us.”

The salon has won a galaxy of awards since it opened in May, 2017.
