A Lichfield-based business is celebrating a major milestone after being named a finalist in two categories at the Hair and Beauty Awards 2026, less than a year after opening its doors.
The Sunbed Studio & Wellness has been shortlisted for:
- Best New Salon 2026 – Staffordshire
- Entrepreneur of the Year 2026 – Staffordshire
The recognition marks an exciting moment for the studio, which set out with a clear vision to offer something different within the industry.
From the outset, the aim was to create a space that blends traditional sunbed services with a wider focus on wellness, relaxation and self-care, offering clients more of a spa-like experience.
Since opening, that vision has quickly grown into something more, with the studio becoming a welcoming space where people can unwind, take time for themselves and enjoy a positive, friendly atmosphere.
The team say building a comfortable and inclusive environment has always been at the heart of the business, and they have been encouraged by the strong sense of community that has developed in such a short time.
Support from clients and the wider local community has played a key role in the studio’s journey so far, helping it grow into a place that many now see as more than just a salon.
Reaching the finals in two award categories highlights both the business’s early success and its ambition for the future.
