Annual Awards Night at AJS
Celebrating 15 Years of Anthony John Salons!
Our Annual Awards Night is one of the most meaningful dates in the AJS calendar. It is a chance to pause, reflect on the year that has just been, and celebrate what we have accomplished both together and as individuals. Most importantly, it is a night for a huge thank you to every member of the team for the effort, hard work, and emotion they put into the salon and their roles - day in, day out.
We give out multiple awards that reflect our culture, our creativity, and our commitment to continuous growth. That matters because a strong salon is built on more than technical ability. A brilliant colour result or a beautiful cut is important, but so is the energy that welcomes you at the door, the way the team supports each other, and the consistency clients can rely on.

Recognising Progress at Every Stage
One of the proudest parts of the evening is celebrating people at different points in their careers. Some team members are already established hairdressers, and others are in training and working hard to become the professionals they want to be. Recognising that journey reinforces the standard we set as a team: improvement is something to be proud of, not something to hide until it feels finished.
A Huge Thank You to the AJS Team
The heart of the night was gratitude. Thank you to the team for being who you are, for AJS, but also for each other. You all make working in, and leading the salon, a genuine joy.
Looking around the room throughout the evening, the feeling was pride. Pride in who we have in our company, the energy they create, and the smiles they put on the faces of each other and their clients. When people feel supported, it shows in every part of the service, from the consultation to the finish.
Fifteen Years of Anthony John Salons
This year marks fifteen years since Anthony John Salons opened, and it was emotional to reflect on what that means. The original aim was to create something that felt like more than “just hair” or just another salon. A place with an energy of its own. Over the years, that vision has become clearer, not because of decor or branding, but because it is people that make a place. We simply have the best people.
Yes, the team are great hairdressers, or on the way to becoming them if they are training. But bigger than that is that they are kind, lovely people who want the best for everyone. That is the foundation that keeps clients returning from Lichfield, and also from nearby areas like Sutton Coldfield and Tamworth.
We will be sharing who won the awards over the coming weeks. The winners deserve their moment, and we want to give each award the space it deserves, rather than rushing through it in one post.
A Final Word of Thanks
A huge thank you to St Johns House, Lichfield for looking after us. The venue, the food, and the team hosting us were brilliant, and it made such a difference to be able to relax, celebrate properly, and enjoy the evening together.
To everyone in the Anthony John Salons team, thank you for the care you bring to the salon and to each other. The AJS Awards Night is a reminder that what we are building at our Lichfield salon is special - not because of one person, but because of the people who show up, day after day, and make it what it is.
If you would like to experience that for yourself, call 01543 481 900 to a arrange a consultation - and see what it feels like to be looked after by a team that genuinely enjoys what they do and who they do it with.
