Salon Vibe has been nominated by News & Star readers as one of the ten finalists in its 'Best Hairdresser 2025' award.
The salon is located on Carlisle's Denton Street and is owned by Sian Jones who opened her business in August 2021 when she was 22 years old.
After being informed that Salon Vibe has been chosen by News & Star readers to feature in the final ten of the 'Best Hairdresser 2025' award, Sian was on hand to express her delight.

"Considering the age I was when I opened up the salon, the biggest thing for me was that I started off by myself and built the team up so hearing that feedback is really appreciated.
"I specialise in har and when I was opening up the place I had worked in many salons before and I wanted to use my experience to create a really down-to-earth and comfortable place where you can come in your pyjamas if you really wanted to, a home from home.
"What I love most about this is that clients become friends and we all muck in and help each other out and it's just an amazing job."
(Image: Supplied) Sian also discussed why she believes that her clients enjoy visiting her salon, with her and her team's 'down-to-earth' personas as well as wide range of services playing a key role in this.
She said: "I think people obviously like the great work that we do, we have so much fun and have a laugh. We are professional but we are also normal, down-to-earth people and I think people like to see that.
"I think a big factor as well is the fact that we offer everything from hair, beauty, aesthetic, teeth, and dog grooming which I think sets us apart from others."
