Salons of the Year: Hit Us with Your Best Shots!
As challenging as the past few years have been for the professional beauty industry, there still were a number of brave souls who determined the time was right to launch a brand new salon, spa or barbershop, or renovate an existing location that had lost some of its luster.
For decades, SALON TODAY’s Salons of the Year competition has celebrated salon, spa and barbershop design by naming the 20 most gorgeous spaces each year. Salons that have been newly opened or renovated in the past two calendar years (January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2022) are eligible to enter the 2022 photo-based salon design competition.
The 2023 application is live now though the competition deadline of March 31, 2023. All entries must be made through the online application portal.
