Halo qualify for L'Oreal Colour Trophy Awards final

Halo, The Urban Retreat are delighted to announce that they just qualified for the finals of the L'Oreal Colour Trophy Awards - the only regional salon to do so! The qualifiers took place in O'Reilly Hall, UCD on Monday April 4th. 49 salons from all over Ireland entered and just 16 were chosen to go through to the final.

Representing Halo were directors Caren O'Connell and Pauline Hyland. The very lovely and talented Mandy O'Loughlin completed the Autumn/winter 2011 look with make-up.

Coming down after their win, Pauline & Caren had this to say about progressing to the next round. "We are absolutely thrilled to have gone through to the final. We hope we can bring the silverware home to Limerick as we're the only salon that qualified from the region. We beat off stiff competition from Toni & Guy, Dylan Bradshaw and Hugh Campbells. We genuinely can't believe it but we're looking forward to doing something even bigger and better for the finals."

Watch out for Halo's performance at the national finals that take place on June 13th.
