Local salon is a finalist in hairdressing awards
Lisburn’s very own Shane Bennett Salon was a finalist in two categories; Julie Cherry and Colette Fitzpatrick for Northern Ireland Hairdresser of the Year and the Shane Bennett Salon Artistic Team for Artistic Team of the Year.
This is no small feat with the 2017 awards attracting hundreds of entries which take the form of photographic collections. The 75 first-round judges drawn from industry experts, hairdressing icons from across the globe as well as session stylists to the stars and creative leaders, viewed the UK’s biggest photographic award exhibition display.
