A business in Barrow has picked up its second award nomination in quick succession with The Mail.

In September, we launched the 'Best Beauty Salon 2024' award to promote the people who are bringing a touch of style to the region.

Our readers were invited to nominate the businesses they felt were deserving of the accolade, with 10 finalists selected from those results.

Voting has been taking place since the start of last week and will be open until Saturday, October 12.

We return to Barrow for what is the last in a series of special features where Jo Grainger has been welcoming customers at Coco Hair and Beauty for over a decade.

She said: "The whole team are really appreciative of the nominations and lovely comments - we love that our clients voted for us.

"The salon is going from strength to strength and we are constantly evolving, introducing new and exciting services."

The salon, found at 202 Dalton Road, first opened its doors in 2013 with Jo having been a key figure of Barrow's town centre for 19 years.

She joined the team at Barrow Business Improvement District in December last year, looking to use her passion for the town to help other businesses.

Jo added: "Myself and my team are always going above and beyond to ensure our clients have a wonderful, professional, caring experience in both salons, every single time they step through the door."

If you think that Jo and the salon to deserves to make it second time lucky and pick up the award, then you still have time to submit your votes before October 12.

The winner of The Mail's 'Best Beauty Salon 2024' will be announced the week commencing Monday, October 21.
