Congratulations to the Men's Hairdresser of the Year 2020 finalists!

Modern Barber would like to congratulate the following people for finalising in HJ's Men's Hairdresser of the Year at the British Hairdressing Awards 2020, sponsored by Schwarzkopf Professional.

The first-round judging took place yesterday (Monday 5 October). The judges attended in controlled time slots which allowed them to deliberate independently, wearing the relevant PPE, and within a huge space at ExCeL London.

So without further ado, MB sends our congratulations to the Men’s Hairdresser of the Year finalists  ...
