We are thrilled to share the exciting news that We Are Salon has brought home six prestigious awards from two renowned events: the national Salon Awards in London and the Kent Health and Beauty Awards in Ashford. These accolades celebrate our dedication to excellence, inclusivity, community impact, and our continuous commitment to providing exceptional hair services.
Kent Health and Beauty Awards – Honouring Excellence in Our Community
We were delighted to attend the Kent Health and Beauty Awards held at the Ashford International Hotel, where we added three awards to our collection:
- Gold Award for Contribution to the Community – This award holds a special place in our hearts, as it recognises our work beyond the salon. From supporting local charities to providing haircuts for those in need through partnerships with Thanet Rise and Medaille Trust, giving back to our community is at the core of who we are.
- Silver Award for Best Hair Salon – Receiving this award further highlights the quality and commitment we bring to our craft. Our client-centred approach, focus on innovative techniques, and dedication to inclusivity are what make We Are Salon a trusted choice for clients across Kent.
- Silver Award for Health and Beauty Champion – This award celebrates our holistic approach to beauty and wellness, recognising our efforts to not only enhance our clients’ outer appearance but also to uplift and support their overall wellbeing.
National Salon Awards – A Night to Remember
Following the success in Ashford, we attended the stunning Royal Leonardo Hotel in St. Paul’s, London, for a national industry event Salon Awards, we gathered along with the best in the industry, and we were honoured to receive three major awards:
- Best Salon – The award everyone dreams of! Winning this top honour for the third time reflects our team’s dedication to consistently creating a welcoming, innovative, and high-quality experience for all our clients.
- Best Texture Salon – This award recognises our specialised expertise in textured hair, a vital aspect of our inclusive services. We’ve worked tirelessly to ensure our salon is a space where every hair type is catered to with expert knowledge, skill, and respect.
- Apprentice of the Year – This accolade goes to our talented team member Kitty, a testament to the quality training, mentorship, and professional development we foster at We Are Salon. Our commitment to nurturing young talent in the hair industry is central to our ethos. This was demonstrated further when Kitty was given an incredible opportunity to diversify her talents into wig making! I’m sure you will join us in wishing her luck on her new career path.
Winning these awards at such a prestigious national event is a fantastic milestone for us, underscoring the hard work, passion, and dedication of our entire team. It also reaffirms our commitment to innovation, inclusivity, and client satisfaction at the highest level.
Celebrating Our Achievements and Looking Ahead
These awards are not just trophies on a shelf (that we are running out of space on!); they represent the hard work and dedication of every member of our team, the trust and support of our clients, and the values that drive us every day. Winning six awards across two esteemed events inspires us to keep striving for excellence and motivates us to expand our positive impact on our clients and community.
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing clients, who have been on this journey with us, and to our dedicated team, whose passion and commitment make We Are Salon the special place it is.
