Local Beauty Entrepreneur Recognized Nationally for Inclusive Services

Christine Daly, a Grimsby-based nail technician, has been proudly shortlisted in the Best Beauty Business category at the prestigious UK Small Business Awards. This recognition comes just a year after she launched her unique home-based nail studio, designed specifically to cater to neurodivergent clients and create a calming atmosphere.

A Passion for Inclusivity

Having qualified as a nail technician in May 2024, Christine's journey into the beauty industry was inspired by her personal experiences as an AuDHD mum. She understands firsthand how overwhelming traditional beauty environments can be. As a result, Christine's Nail Studio serves as a haven for those seeking a tranquil and supportive experience away from the stress often associated with beauty services.

Celebrating Achievements

Being shortlisted as a finalist among the UK's best in the beauty sector is an incredible honor for Christine. She expressed her gratitude, stating that this achievement not only recognizes her dedication to quality service but also her commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where all clients feel understood and valued.

Looking Ahead

The UK Small Business Awards ceremony is set for December 19, 2026, at The Eastside Rooms in Birmingham, where Christine and other finalists will gather to celebrate innovation and excellence in small business. The event promises to shine a light on the outstanding contributions made by local entrepreneurs across the country.

In a field where competition is fierce, Christine's recognition stands testament to the impact that thoughtful and inclusive business practices can have. This accolade signifies not just personal success, but a broader recognition of the importance of creating safe and welcoming spaces in the beauty industry.
