The Professional Beauty Regional Awards returned this year with a luxurious afternoon tea at Manchester Central hosted by comedian Ian Moore.
Each finalist was visited by member of the awards team who then reported back to a panel of independent industry expert judges. The finalists were then scored on every aspect of their business, from website to salon exterior and everything in between.
