Chesterfield salon owner proud to be 'highly commended' at prestigious awards ceremony
Autumn House Hair and Beauty, on Derby Road, was highly commended in the English Hair and Beauty Awards for ‘Best Local Salon’ in East Midlands.
Owner of the salon, Hayley Meehan, 26, said: "After being open just under two years, to get to the final for the category of 'Best Local Salon of the Year' for the English Hair and Beauty Awards was incredible. I never thought I would get placed but just to be there was super exciting, especially as it was an excuse to get all dressed up and see everyone else looking so glamorous.

We have previously reported how Hayley opens up her business one day a week when it would normally be closed so that people with anxiety could come in and have a pamper when it is quiet.She added: "I've worked so hard and to have my little business recognised on such a big night for the industry was amazing. I could not have done it without all my wonderful clients nominating me and their continued support. I hope to be lucky enough to get to go again next year."
