A SWINDON salon picked up a winners award at the BABTACS annual award in London recently.

The salon, OMG Hair & Beauty in Faringdon Road, won Best UK Salon Marketing Strategy and was the only salon in the south west to make this category's finals. Staff were recognised for their dedication to marketing, communication, high standards and promotion of their excellent services.

Becky Tanner, Director of OMG said: “This is fantastic recognition for us. We were up against great salons from big cities, so for us in Swindon to not only hold our own but beat the competition is amazing. BABTAC is a trusted association within our industry and has very high standards.”

The team celebrated in style at the ceremony which was held at The Hurlingham Club in London, along with over 300 others from the hair & beauty industry, at the awards ceremony, arriving in a limousine and enjoying a three course meal and entertainment. They plan to continue celebrating with a night out and a celebration day with clients.
