Readers of The York Press can now cast a vote by picking up a copy of the paper from today (Monday, September 30) and Saturday, October 12.

The winner is set to be announced in the week commencing October 21.

We have a short profile in the newspaper each day during the voting window on each of the nominated top ten and why they deserve your vote.

After the nominations opened, Nigel Burton, editor of The Press, said: “Beauty salons offer people the chance for some quality time with experts.

“Plenty will say that a visit to their stylist helps with their overall self-care and they are a vital part of any community.

“At The Press, we want to celebrate the people behind these businesses, who work hard for their clients, offering advice and care in the service they provide.”
