THE owner of a clinic in Manningtree has expressed her delight after her business was shortlisted for a national award.

Chloe Jones owns Skin and Vain in Manningtree which has been shortlisted in the best for aesthetics category in the UK Hair and Beauty Awards.

Ms Jones opened the business in late 2018 and a little more than a year later was forced to close the doors for months due to the pandemic.

Chloe said: “I took the opportunity to further study at home to become a teacher and upon reopening the clinic, I started an academy teaching what I love the most – all things aesthetics.”

“Skin and Vain offers an exclusive range of industry-leading non-surgical cosmetic treatments.

“We take great pride in being able to offer these innovative and affordable alternatives to cosmetic surgery.”

The UK Hair and Beauty Awards celebrate the hair and beauty industry to support businesses both large and small and expose all candidates to new opportunities via social media, no matter their financial and social status.

Finalists will compete locally before heading to the national red carpet grand final in April next year.
