Our finalist place for Marketing Campaign of the Year celebrates the launch of The Blow Dry Club—the first blow dry subscription service of its kind at this scale. Built on the idea of making beautiful hair part of your everyday routine, the campaign combined innovation with accessibility, introducing unlimited blow dries at an affordable monthly price.
 
We’re equally proud to share that Gemma Midwinter, Salon Manager at HOB Salons Epping, has been named a finalist for Manager of the Year. This award recognises exceptional leadership—someone who leads with vision, motivates their team, and consistently delivers an outstanding client experience. Gemma’s nomination is a reflection of her dedication, hard work, and ability to nurture both team growth and salon success. Under her leadership, HOB Epping has gone from strength to strength, creating an environment where both clients and team members thrive. 
 
Now in its 27th year, HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards shine a spotlight on the professionalism, innovation, and sheer excellence of those working tirelessly to elevate the hairdressing industry. These awards celebrate individuals and teams who continue to push boundaries, inspire future talent, and keep the UK hairdressing scene vibrant and influential on the world stage.
 
Jayne Lewis-Orr, Executive Director of HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards, commented: “Our awards not only celebrate passion, creativity and innovation, but also highlight the vital role salons play in supporting thriving local high streets. In 2025, more than ever, hairdressing businesses are at the heart of our communities—driving local economies, creating jobs, and offering personal, high-quality services that online alternatives simply can’t replicate. Every finalist has demonstrated outstanding business excellence, resilience and dedication to delivering a standout client experience.”
 
We’re honoured to be recognised among so many inspiring individuals and teams. Bring on the BHBA Awards Night on 7th July!
