it’s a Sher thing was invited to the Professional Beauty Awards 2018 which took place this past Sunday, 2 September. This is where we celebrate the best in the business for doing what they do best. We all love our salon pampering, so I loved that this event was centered around acknowledging those who show us love.
The event was held at the Venue in Melrose Arch on a Sunday evening. I rented a beautiful spring inspired dress from Sew Couture in Fourways to attend this prestigious gala dinner.It’s not often you get an opportunity to dress up these days. The decor was lovely and the food was great! We had a trio of tomatoes, buffalo mozerella and balsamic reduction starter, a fillet, onion rings and potato main and a delicious honey-comb chocolate mousse for dessert.
I haven’t tried the below salons out for myself, but please do see if your local salon is one of the winners. Remember to congratulate them when you pop in for your next treatment. They will so appreciate the acknowledgement. I am booked to try out a few of the below and will let you know what I think once I’ve popped in.
