Holly said: “This is an incredible achievement for us especially after such a turbulent 18 months with lockdowns and working through the pandemic.

“Officially being the ‘best in the North West’ for the second year running is an outstanding achievement for us and we are blown away with our awards this year.

“I am always unbelievably proud of my incredible team and I’m so lucky to work with such talented, inspirational people. The salon has gone from strength to strength even during the pandemic and I am incredibly grateful for so much support from our clients.

“Being recognised for our passion and work is an actual dream come true. We love what we do and we live and breathe our work; we truly have the best jobs in the world.”

Holly opened Holly Jayne Hair Establishment in December 2017, after securing a host of qualifications from Bury College, including Level 2 and Level 3 Hairdressing and Level 2 Barbering.

During her time at Bury College, Holly claimed first place in the North West heat of the Blackpool International Competition, going on to win fourth place in the national finals.

She also took third place in the National Hairdressing Federation competition in the Warrington Bridal Style round, and was shortlisted for the Outstanding BTEC Student of the Year award.
