A makeover studio based in Farnworth has been nominated for two awards a year after winning the Beauty Salon of the Year in 2022.
Charlotte Marie Makeover Studio based just off Market Street has been shortlisted in the English Hair and Beauty Awards for Makeup Salon of the Year and Beauty Salon of the Year.
Charlotte Cardwell, 29, from Farnworth, said: “I feel really happy and grateful that my team are up for the nominations again for the third year running, I’m grateful to all our clients, family and friends for giving us the opportunity to be up for such an award by nominating us, as it puts my studio as one of the top ones in the region.
“By the end of the year, we aim to go into community work helping young girls with ambitions to be in the beauty industry, we want to be able to guide, inspire and create successful individuals in an industry that is always striving.
“I opened the salon back in October 2016 when I was 23 and are onto a seventh successful year with a team of eight amazing team members.
“My team have worked in all areas of the makeup, hair and beauty industry and have experience in film, TV, fashion and editorials.
“We pride ourselves by offering a makeover facility for our diverse community, including any ethnicity, gender or pronouns, combining our skills as a team to be able to cater to anyone who may contact us.
“We have built up an excellent reputation within our area that accommodates recurring clients as well as those that are in the public eye.”
Charlotte said her team are a credit to her and they are all ‘one big family’.
She said: “My girls are an absolute credit to themselves providing a professional service to our client base.
“They should all be super proud of themselves as without them I wouldn’t have my studio without them.
“I appreciate my team and we are all a big family who supports one another.
“The community are very loyal and live locally to the studio, everyone recommends one another for each service.
“Despite the living crisis, the team still has the support of the local community and clients travel to us from neighbouring boroughs even from different cities too.
“Our peers in the industry always are there for support too and we give our support back to them.
“We give back to our clients by offering special offers and loyalty cards as well as discounted packages.”
Charlotte said the award the studio received last year came at the perfect time as the studio had bad news due to a break in.
She said: “We as a team feel really privileged to have the title as Beauty Salon of the Year 2022, as in November 2021 we were broken into and our busiest time turned upside down, our family friends and clients rallied around to help get us back on track and supported us to be the best in Greater Manchester.”
The awarding ceremony for this year’s awards is at the Mecure Hotel in Piccadilly Manchester on Sunday February 26.
