Last year's contest was filled with fierce competition, ultimately awarding the title to Funky and Fresh Hair, where owner Rachel Armitage expressed her overwhelming joy at being recognized. “I could literally burst into tears. I am buzzing,” she remarked, providing a glimpse into how much these accolades mean to local businesses. The current competition seeks to celebrate the best once again, reaffirming Bradford’s status as a hub for skilled hairdressers.

Each day, profiles of the finalists will be published, accompanied by voting slips, allowing voters to directly impact who they believe should receive the coveted title.

A Community-Focused Celebration

This competition not only recognizes excellence but also fosters a sense of community pride.

As the competition progresses, communities are encouraged to stay tuned for updates.
