Did you brave the pandemic and open up a new salon or spa? Did you take the downtime provided by the shutdown to do some major renovations to your barbershop or nail salon?
In it's 37th year, SALON TODAY's photo-based SALONS OF THE YEAR competition is seeking gorgeous interiors, sleek design and clever decor ideas.
The online application is live now, and the extended deadline is March 10, 2021. You are eligible to participate if your newly designed salon opened or reopened between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2020. Simply fill out the application, providing data about your new design, telling us about some of your design choices and uploading up to 10 professional images that showcase your interior design.
Twenty interiors will be featured in our Summer 2021 issue, and the grand prize salon will grace our cover.
