A salon has been crowned the best in the area.

Bee Zee Health and Beauty in The Parade, Watford, has won the Watford Observer's Salon of the Year 2018 competition.

The salon offers a range of eye treatments, threading, waxing, tinting and eyelash extensions, private treatment rooms for bespoke face and body treatments and a weight loss programme.

It also runs an academy, the Bee Zee Institute of Beauty Therapy, where it offers hair and beauty courses such as Diploma in Beauty and Hair Therapy at NVQ levels two, three and four.

Owner Zafar Chishti said: "We feel delighted and honoured to receive the award. It is indeed a result of the care we provided to our valued clients and their appreciation for our great services to them. We thank all our clients for their continual support over past the years and hope to serve them for many years to come.

"Being told you are appreciated is one of the simplest and most uplifting things you can hear. We believe that the harder you work for something, the greater you will feel when you achieve it.

"There is nothing that can replace the feeling of winning and we feel that the key to winning is heart and determination."
