This year will see the inaugural Welsh Hair and Beauty Awards, sponsored by Fake Bake, take place. The event will be on the 13th July 2014 at Cardiff City Stadium.
Thousands of nominations have been received and with a variety of awards up for grabs, ranging from the Best of Cardiff to the much sought after Beauty Salon of the Year, the glamorous evening promises to be the biggest in the Hair and Beauty calendar.
Fake Bake take the position of title sponsor this year and are further making their mark with three of their own categories: Fake Bake Therapist, Fake Bake Spray Tanner and Fake Bake Salon. The brand has gone from strength to strength since it was bought over by Scottish business tycoon Sandra McClumpha in 2008, with an array of award winning products used by salons nationwide.
A spokesperson for Fake Bake commented, As the world's largest independent tanning supplier and proud winners of the 2014 Guild Awards of Excellence, Best Tanning Supplier Award we are continually committed to supporting and developing the business of our partners through quality product, supply and service. We wish every nominee all the very best of luck and continued success throughout year.
Rachel Brown of event organisers Creative Oceanic commented We have had a fantastic response from the Welsh hair and beauty industry and we are excited to see the brand grow into Wales.
