Scratch Stars Awards 2025: Meet The Finalists
For 12 years, Scratch magazine has been recognising excellence in the UK&I nail industry via the Scratch Stars Awards, and is proud to present the finalists for 2025.
Hundreds of entries were received between February and March this year, with nail pros, teams and businesses keen to highlight their talents, passions and industry know-how.
More than a focus on skill, the Scratch Stars Awards celebrates amazing all-rounders: techs who provide stellar nail experiences for clients, and individuals and businesses who drive the industry forward. Finalists were chosen through a meticulous evaluation process that considered photographic evidence of nail work, educational materials, workspace setups, testimonials and responses to business scenarios. The Scratch team also reviewed social media profiles and websites to assess each entrant's growth, enthusiasm and contribution to the industry over the past year. This determined five finalists in each of the 18 categories, who are most deserving of a 2025 Scratch Star title.
These shining members of the industry will undergo a second and final assessment, before winners are announced at the hotly anticipated Scratch Stars Party on Sunday 6 July.
