London, United Kingdom – 2026 WS Studios Hair Professionals and its flagship luxury brand WS Hair Pro have been named National Best Salon 2026, securing the prestigious national title for the second consecutive year after also being recognised in 2025.
The achievement reinforces the salon group’s continued commitment to exceptional client experience, technical excellence and innovation across its London locations in Westminster and the City of London.
Unlike many industry awards that rely solely on judging panels, the National Beauty Awards UK & IE combine celebrity judges during the shortlisting process with a public vote to determine the winners, placing significant emphasis on the support, trust and confidence of clients and the wider beauty community.
The award organisers describe their mission as recognising the professionals who are shaping the future of the beauty industry, stating:
“The beauty industry has been missing this credit and it’s time to take action and get yourself known and appreciated for what you do.”
For Founder and Creative Director Walter Stojash, the consecutive national recognition represents more than an award—it reflects years of dedication to raising standards within luxury hairdressing.
“To be recognised as National Best Salon for a second consecutive year is an extraordinary honour. Every appointment, every consultation and every transformation begins with trust, and this award belongs as much to our clients as it does to our team. Their continued support has made this achievement possible.”
Operating under two complementary brands, WS Studios Hair Professionals and WS Hair Pro, the company has developed a reputation for combining precision cutting, advanced colour work and personalised luxury service with a strong emphasis on continual education and technical development.
The business has invested heavily in creating distinctive salon experiences across London, with its flagship WS Hair Pro salon in the City of London offering private luxury appointments alongside its established Westminster location.
The National Best Salon 2026 title further strengthens the company’s position among the UK’s recognised award-winning salons and marks another significant milestone in its ongoing growth.
Looking ahead, the business plans to continue investing in education, innovation and client experience while expanding the reach of the WS Hair Pro brand throughout the luxury hair industry.
