AN EYEBROW specialist is celebrating after her award-winning Abergele salon was nominated for six more prizes.

RDR Beauty Clinic, based on Market Street, was this week shortlisted in four categories at this year’s British Hair and Beauty Awards – three of which it has also won previously.

Run by Lorna Roythorne Du-Ross, the salon is also up for two prizes at the Welsh Beauty Awards – both of which it has also won before.

Though the British awards will be held virtually, Lorna is planning to attend the Welsh ceremony, and is planning to be “defending my titles”.

She said: “It felt amazing to be nominated; I’m really excited for it.

“We’ve got lots of new equipment in over the last six months and have started doing body treatments; we’re the only place in North Wales to offer the muscle toning treatments that we can now offer.

“We have now equipment that offers things like fat-freezing and body-sculpting treatments.

“Seeing the results we were able to get for our clients with what we already had, it seemed right to offer that next step for everybody.

“The business is doing amazing at the moment. It’s thriving; I really can’t complain. We have amazing clients through our door, so I feel very privileged that we get to treat such amazing people.”

Lorna set up the salon in 2018, and has more than five years of experience in microblading.

Microblading is a form of semi-permanent makeup that uses an ultra-fine blade to create hair-like strokes to shape the eyebrows.
