Hello Everyone
You may have noticed my absence with blogging and YouTube recently and this is due to my new project taking up all my time. It's taken me 7 months of hard work but 4 weeks ago I finally opened my own salon which I have dreamed about having for years.
I wanted to do a blogpost to share with you my little journey, some photos and tell you about my new baby.
After months of searching for the right premises in March this year I found a property which needed a LOT of TLC. When I walked in the walls were falling apart, holes missing out the walls and ceilings and I was transported back to 1970 with the decor... I LOVED IT and what I knew it could be! After negtioations in April everything was finalised and the renovations began. The building has been stripped back to brick, every wall taken down, re built and re structured so every single thing you see is brand new and designed by me.
My dream was always to have a Unisex salon that caters for everyones needs both male and female and that is what I hope I have achieved.
My passion is make-up and its something I love doing and I am so proud of my work and everything I've achieved. I have an amazing team of make-up artists; @caitlinanneduffx @feature_mua @jordanaticiamakeup & @charlotte_metcalfe_mua who between us we are available for any occasion. Charlotte is also available for nails on Tuesdays & Fridays.
To compliment the make-up I have three amazing hair dressers; @callumheslophair who specialises in barbering and THE BEST curly blow drys I've ever seen & @nataliecropper_hairmua who is a phenomenal colourist with over 10 years experience, my right hand woman for weddings and she's very handy with a makeup brush too and @francescaoslerhair who is also amazing in every way.
As you may know I am a cosmetic tattooist or semi permanent makeup consultant, both mean the same thing :) I have 2 years experience and I absolutely love what I do. I couldn't imagine ever not wanting to go to work now & I never thought tattooing peoples faces could be so rewarding but it really is. Being someone who has naturally bushy brows I never knew the problems and issues people had with their brows until 2 years ago. The difference a good eye brow makes to your face is INSANE. Makes you look younger, prettier, fresher and feel so much better. Semi permanent makeup can be done on your lips too. I don't offer eye liner services as I do my makeup to look natural, and theres nothing natural about a black winged out line on your eye and my clients are a representation of me so I choose not to do it although I am fully trained to do so. I tattoo on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays only, leaving the weekend for me to paint faces. My waiting list varies depending on the time of the year from 3/4 weeks to 8weeks in the peak of the summer so I would urge anyone who's wanting them doing to book well ahead of time.
I have two laser specialists, a male Elliot and a female Anita who are both fully trained in all laser services. Anita specialises more in female hair removal and Elliot tattoo removal and male hair removal. Additional to this we can remove unwanted freckles, thread and spider veins, pigmentation and reduce scars and birthmarks. Basically if there is anything you want removing we pretty much can do it! It takes roughly 6-8 sessions to remove most things so if you want to be hair free for summer or tattoo free for your wedding you need to get started soon. Each session has to be 4 weeks apart so you're looking at 6-8 months. For tattoo removal we've had some amazing results after just 4 sessions but of course everyones body is different. Also I know a lot of people think that laser hair removal is painful and with many machines it is but with ours it is completely PAIN FREE, I 100% guarantee it and if you don't believe me feel free to come in and have me prove it to you with a patch test.
We now offer HD brows for those ladies who have lots of hair but just need it shaping and enhancing, LVL lashes & lash extensions by my Caitlin.
Anyway thats about it for our services and our amazing team, scroll down to see my before (when stripped back, I WISH I had taken photos before the work started) and after photos.. Click on the images to make them larger.
I hope to see some of you soon
