Dolly Rocks Hair & Beauty has been shortlisted for both Best Salon Team of the Year and Hair Extension Specialist of the Year, a significant achievement given the hundreds of entries from across the UK.
The salon, which was previously based in Uplands where it also enjoyed national awards success, moved to a larger premises in Gorseinon three years ago. It has since built a strong reputation for its specialist hair extension services, advanced colouring techniques, and luxury salon experience.
Salon owner Jodie Lloyd, who has over 14 years of experience in the industry, said the national recognition reflects the passion and hard work of her entire team.
“Being named finalists on a national level is such an incredible achievement for our team,” she said.
“We have worked so hard to build Dolly Rocks into a luxury salon experience where clients can access high-quality hair, beauty and aesthetic treatments all under one roof.
“To be recognised for both our team and our hair extension expertise means so much to us.”
The salon is also a professional partner with leading hair extension brand Beauty Works, further highlighting their commitment to industry excellence.
The UK Hair and Beauty Awards recognise outstanding professionals and businesses across the country who demonstrate exceptional skill, innovation, and dedication to client experience.
This latest recognition adds to the salon’s growing list of achievements, which includes being in the running to be named best in Wales in previous years. The nominations place Dolly Rocks among the most accomplished salons in the UK, while continuing to bring national attention to Swansea’s thriving beauty industry.
The winners of The UK Hair and Beauty Awards 2026 will be announced later this year.
that's a solid move building a team strong enough to get national recognition. winning awards as a salon owner takes real operational consistency—every client experience has to hit the same standard. how's jodie handling the balance between doing the work herself vs. managing the team at that level?
