Awards go virtual

This year the awards will be virtual and going live to a global audience for the first time in its 36-year history. “As the prospect of ‘live’ events continues to be shrouded with uncertainty, we have made the positive decision to keep to our date of Monday 30th November and in the style of the world’s biggest events in 2020, we shall hold the awards online. With the British Hairdressing Awards being THE hairdressing event of the year, we feel strongly that it should go ahead and we are confident we can still celebrate together but in the 2020 way,” comments HJ’s executive director Jayne Lewis-Orr.
