EditorMORRISTON: Salon owner from travelling community named national beauty finalist
Tammy Cawley, who owns Beauty Haven in Morriston, has been shortlisted for the ‘Best Brows (Non-SPMU) of the Year’ award just 11 months after opening her business.
Tammy said she built her business from scratch with “no hand-downs or shortcuts,” driven by a passion for helping people feel confident in themselves.
Coming from the travelling community, Tammy says she is proud to see more women from her background becoming independent and building their own paths in life.
She said it is something that is becoming more common and she finds it “incredibly inspiring.”
“I love seeing other travelling and gypsy girls working hard, building businesses and creating opportunities for themselves,” Tammy said, adding that she will “always root for them.”
She believes it’s a positive shift, especially as it hasn’t always been this way in the past.
Beauty Haven, which specialises in brows, lashes, facials and aesthetics, was created to be a welcoming and supportive environment where clients can relax.
Known for her warm and friendly “girls’ girl” energy, Tammy says one of the most rewarding parts of her work is building genuine relationships with her clients.
She said she was “incredibly proud” to be recognised at a national level and was grateful to the clients who continue to support her small business.
The winners of the UK Hair and Beauty Awards 2026 will be announced later this year.
