Shine Nail Bar up for national award

The Shine Nail Bar reaches the finals of the “Scratch Stars” Nail Awards

The Shine Nail Bar are celebrating today as they were named as a finalist for The Shooting Star Award at the Scratch Stars Awards 2017. The annual awards, presented by leading industry publication Scratch Magazine, are now in their 6th year and recognise and reward outstanding talent and achievement within the professional nail industry.

The Shine Nail Bar fought off strong competition to be named as one of only 5 finalists who were all nominated by others within the industry.  Scratch Magazine will now assess all the finalists and decide upon the winner of the Shooting Star Award for 2017.

“We are looking for that special individual or company who is making waves in the industry maybe through setting up an amazing new initiative or launching a revolutionary new product or something that is going to positively impact the wider industry” says Helena Biggs, Editor of Scratch

All finalists will be invited to attend the Scratch Summer Party at Tropicana Beach Club, Covent Garden on Sunday 23 July 2017. After getting in the party mood, the Scratch Stars Awards winners of 18 categories will be revealed by a celebrity host. It is set to be a fantastic evening filled with music, entertainment, cocktails and canapés.

“We are thrilled to be one of the finalists in the Shooting Star award, it’s fantastic that our social enterprise nail bar is being recognised as something innovative and important. It’s fab to put Beeston on the map for something positive and exciting for the girls who are involved with The Shine Nail Bar”  said Kate Alty (Manager, The Shine Project/The Shine Nail Bar).
