A Plympton beauty salon has been named not only as the best in the South West – but also the best in the country.
Purity Salon and Training Academy scooped the prestigious awards at the English Hair and Beauty Awards 2024.
Purity was established 10 years ago in May 2014 by Lucy Phillips after she left the Royal Navy having served for seven years as a warfare specialist. It is not the first time Lucy has received accolades for her business, having won a number of awards over the years.
Lucy said:
“Making the finals was a big achievement, but to win the regional and national awards is just amazing. We are all delighted and in a state of disbelief and gratitude.
“It is especially pleasing to have won the awards when we are celebrating our 10th anniversary this month.
“I am so proud of my dedicated six-strong team for this wonferful achievement. They have all been with me for several years now, which has definitely contributed to our successes over the years.”
Purity is based on the Ridgeway in Plympton and offers a range of treatments include hair styling, nails, brows, lashes, make up and more.
Lucy added:
“We have a fantastic team and extremely loyal customers, who continually support the salon not only because of the services we provide but the atmosphere that the team create. We are able to provide not only hairdressing services, beauty and nail treatments but also consultations, professional advice and retail a wide range of products to use at home. Each year we aim to add new services and keep up with the latest fashions and trends.”
Members of the public were asked to nominate their favourite stylists and salons for the English Hair and Beauty Awards and more than 60,000 votes were received.
The awards have been sponsored by Creative Oceanic for 12 years and have celebrated the stylists and salons from across England that represent excellence in the hair and beauty industry.
The success of these awards has led to Creative Oceanic launching Hair and Beauty Awards in Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, London, Toronto and New York, all of which have been successfully established over the years, increasing the brand’s international appeal and recognition.
A spokesperson for the English Hair and Beauty Awards 2024, said:
“Winning an award in this prestigious competition is a significant achievement, as it acknowledges the talent and hard work of hair and beauty professionals and sets a benchmark for others to follow. The winners of these awards represent the highest standards of quality and service in the English hair and beauty industry.”
