Axminster beauty and aesthetics clinic Total Transformations has been nominated for two national awards, less than a year after opening. 

Customers were queueing out of the door when Total Transformations opened in Lyme Street in February, and this business has since seen continued success. 

It has now been shortlisted as a finalist for two categories in the UK Hair and Beauty Awards, including for best new salon and best in aesthetics. 

The awards celebrate the hair and beauty industry and aim to support businesses both large and small and expose all candidates to new opportunities via social media.

Owner Terri Bowell, who opened Total Transformations with 20 years experience in the hair and beauty industry, is now looking forward to the the red carpet awards ceremony in Birmingham next April, which she'll be attending alongside the likes of celebrities Duncan James and Jake Quickenden. 

She described the nomination as great news for her growing business and the local area. 

Alongside the wide variety of treatments on offer at Total Transformations, Terri is now offering IPHM accredited courses in beauty and aesthetics after receiving her teaching qualifications. 

Courses are available on a one-to-one basis and some online, with Terri saying this is a great opportunity for those living locally who are keen to get into the beauty industry and would have previously had to travel miles for training.
