Also awarded on the night were Alex Walker from Kaboodles Hairdressing in Torquay, who was named runner-up, and Sara Peters from Sculptures in Rhonoda Cynon Taff, Wales, who was awarded highly commended.

A panel of top UK hairdressing award-winners and press editors judged the images, before deciding on a final trio of winners. La Biosthetique UK Sales Manager, Paul Hetherington, commented: "The calibre of this year’s entries was absolutely stunning. Everyone had followed the rules to the letter and created outstanding models which made it a really tough job for the judges to determine winners from such high-quality work."
