Joan Harrison Award Winner
Winner Spotlight – Lana Nicholson
I was really impressed; I had a lot of my staff there. I wasn’t there, but I was getting first hand play by play from the Matrix booth – I work with Matrix. I thought the awards were really well done. I got an email saying that I was a finalist, so I was really shocked when I saw my name on the big screen. I definitely wasn’t ready for it! Just being that it’s the Joan Harrison award, I’ve done hair for over 25 years so I was at all the different hair awards and very aware of it and know who Joan Harrison is. It was a great honour to be nominated for it. Some of my artists also competed and won. They’re pumped, they’re happy.
What do the VZN Awards mean to you?
I’m new to Efe Magazine, it’s only been the last year that Matrix has been participating with Efe. So for me, when I think of the VZN Awards I think of very new, up and coming, trendsetting. I feel like it’s a fresh vision.
