All the glamour and glitz from the Hair, Beauty and Style Awards in Wexford

Earlier this week, over four hundred guests attended the inaugural Brian Cunningham’s Hair Beauty and Style Awards in association with Southeast Radio at the four-star Riverside Park Hotel in Enniscorthy in Co. Wexford.

Created by travel, entertainment and celebrity agent, Brian Cunningham, the special night celebrated the great and the good from the hair, beauty and style sectors that have endured the toughest times over the last few years.

A fantastic turnout ensured the night was a big success and the Champagne reception plus four-course dinner went down as an absolute treat.

The glitzy ceremony had presenter, stylist and fashion designer Brendan Courtney on board for hosting duties. He was joined by celebrity judges Glenda Gilson, Sharleen Collins, Lou Copeland, and Katie Jane Golden to whittle down the entries to find the winners of each category.
