HAIRDRESSING students brought their course to a fitting end with an awards ceremony.
The presentation evening at Bishop Auckland College saw student Dawn Evans named Hairdresser of the Year.
Miss Evans, from Toft Hill, was presented with a trophy sponsored by Keith Bailey, who runs the Roots hairdressing chain.
NVQ Level Three hairdressing students have also used their spare time throughout the year to raise money for charity.
Events including raffles and a sponsored walk enabled them to present cheques for £280 to representatives from the Bishop Auckland Special Baby Care Unit and the Christina Noble Children's Foundation.
Hairdressing lecturer Katrina Thompson said: "The award evening was held to celebrate the success of the students and their commitment throughout the year.
"It was supported by parents, friends and local salon owners.''
