THE Mail has begun its campaign to find the best beauty salon in south Cumbria.

The nomination process has now started for the Best Beauty Salton 2024 award, the latest in The Mail's campaign to promote the best-loved businesses in the region.

We have already unearthed the best chippy, hairdresser and pub according to our readers, meaning it is now time to turn our attention to salons that keep people in the area looking sharp.

Once again, we are relying on our readers to get involved, something which you have done in your droves since we first started these awards.

You can submit your nomination for your favourite beauty salon by visiting the online platform here

The Mail will then exclusively reveal the ten finalists based on these results.

After that, the voting process will kick in, with two weeks to choose your favourite.

You will be able to cast your vote by picking up a copy of The Mail across that fortnight.

Joy Yates, Newsquest Cumbria regional editor, said: “The beauty industry is big business – from treating yourself to gel nails or lovely lashes or relaxing with a massage or facial.

"The list of possible treatments is endless and we have some wonderful salons in our areas.

“Now’s the time to show your appreciation and place your nomination in our Best Beauty Salon 2024 promotion.

"Make sure you do so before the closing date of Sunday, September 22.”

After the ten finalists have been revealed, The Mail will be running features with each salon, sharing how the businesses got started and why they deserve your vote.

Keep an eye out for those daily features next month - and get nominating!
