A Torfaen salon has won the top-rated salon and two silver awards at the 2021 British Hair and Beauty Awards.

The Beauty Oasis Day Spa & Clinic in New Inn picked up the awards at a virtual award ceremony.

As well as gold in the Top Rated Salon category, Beauty Oasis were also awarded silver in the Excellence in Customer Service and Beauty Salon of the Year categories.

Beauty Oasis Day Spa & Clinic owner Sarah Henson said: “As these are the premier awards for the hair and beauty industry, when we entered, we weren’t expecting much. To initially be informed we had been shortlisted was fantastic news and then to win a British Gold and two British Silvers in categories that mean so much to us is incredible, and I am so very proud of every member of the team.”

Unfortunately, there was no glitzy ceremony this year due to Covid, but Sarah’s team all got dressed and celebrated at their homes whilst watching the ceremony.

Sarah continued, “When I opened the first salon in Newport 20 years ago, my focus was to provide clients with an exemplary service. We developed a formula that worked and enabled me to open the salon here in New Inn ten years ago and both have gone from strength to strength. Like many other businesses, we battled through to survive lockdown and to be rewarded with these three awards is so satisfying.”
