The winners of HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards 2023 have been revealed at the 24th anniversary of the event, which took place on Monday 3rd July at London’s Park Plaza Westminster Bridge.
The awards – an annual industry highlight - celebrate the people, brands and businesses that have helped make British hairdressing so revered across the globe. From trailblazing salon managers and ground-breaking design concepts to influential social media platforms and exemplary teamwork, the event recognises the brightest business stars of the industry. Previous winners include Trevor Sorbie, TONI&GUY, Sophia Hilton, Colin McAndrew and Casey Coleman.
Hosted by TV personality, Craig Doyle, guests at the event were treated to a drink reception and three-course dinner, before the results of the 17 categories were revealed. Trophies were presented to each winner by representatives from the category sponsors and industry VIPS.
‘This year’s entries prove once again that the British hairdressing industry is brimming with passion and a desire to push boundaries and inspire others’ said Jayne Lewis-Orr, Executive Director of HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards. ‘Our finalists each displayed creative flair and business acumen, combined with a thirst for success and refusal to compromise on their ambitions.
