“The British Hairdresser of the Year title stands as the ultimate accolade in our industry, recognised globally for its prestige and significance,” said Jayne Lewis-Orr, Executive Director of Hairdressers Journal International. “Since their inception in 1984, the Awards have consistently honoured the most credible names in hairdressing, both as nominees and winners, propelling careers to new heights. Winning this esteemed title not only elevates individual profiles, but also plays a pivotal role in raising standards across the industry. It serves as a beacon of creative inspiration, demonstrating that boundaries are meant to be pushed and that excellence knows no limits.”
The award will be announced on November 25 at a gala event at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House London, alongside various other regional and specialist categories that honour the best in British hair.
