Independent Liverpool-based hairdresser Andrew Joseph Manion has scooped the award for Best Local Salon of the Year at the English Hair & Beauty Awards for the second year running. This is the ninth award for the international session stylist.
Andrew started his career in a salon on Woolton Village, Liverpool, where he discovered his love of hairdressing. Training as a head colourist at the salon, he spent four years mastering the art before moving into styling and cutting. Other ventures included setting up a mobile hairdressing business on a scooter before he became so in demand he needed a permanent base and so AJM Hair, based on Aigburth Road, was born.
Upon winning the accolade Andrew said, “This is such a huge honour and I’m absolutely thrilled to win. I’m immensely proud and would like to thank my team and customers for all their support. I love hairdressing, it’s always been my passion. The next big thing for me is focusing on entering more competitions as a salon and raising our profile even more. On a personal level I’m focusing on raising my profile as a make-up artist as well as a hair stylist.” So, watch this space!
