A Cornish hairdresser and social club founder has been nominated for two business awards.
Vivienne Johns, founder of the The Hairdressers Social Club in Penzance, has been shortlisted for the prestigious Innovation of the Year title, at HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards 2021, as well as finalising in the Marketing Campaign of the Year category.
The awards - now in their 23rd year - recognise the hardworking names that have built outstanding salon businesses, helping to make British hairdressing the most respected in the world.
From standout salons and exemplary teamwork to groundbreaking innovations and trailblazing individuals, HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards are an annual celebration of business brilliance.
The Hairdressers Social Club made the final stage of the awards after compiling a detailed entry, outlining a groundbreaking concept of their own design that is new to the hairdressing industry. Winners will be announced at HJ’s British Hairdressing Business Awards on Monday October 4 at London’s Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, to an audience of some of the industry’s most prolific names.
