Clients can nominate stylists for the Ultimate Hairapy Award-Deadline October 20

South Orange, NJ- Many hair industry awards celebrate top styling skills alone without regard to the components of service that salon clients really value. With the Ultimate Hairapy Award, My Salon Scoop will highlight a hairstylist that focuses beyond hot hair but also on healthy hair.

From September 22 through October 20, hair salon clients across the country can nominate a hairstylist for the Ultimate Hairapy Award by submitting a brief essay about how their hairstylist promotes ongoing healthy hair practices. "Since My Salon Scoop's mission has concentrated on helping women of color make smarter decisions to have healthier hair, this award is a special one for us," said, V. Woods, Founder and CEO of My Salon Scoop.

The winning "hairapist" will receive a salon starter product kit from Tea and Honey Blends and My Salon Scoop services valued at over $500. In addition, the nominating client will receive a $100 gift toward a future hair appointment with the winning stylist. The winner will be announced on Facebook and the MySalonScoop.com on October 27.
