By Kat Hill | 26 July 2017 | Feature, Salon spotlights
Striking with its statement wall of mirrors, The Beauty & Aesthetics Parlour, in Colchester, is a home salon that is much more than a pretty face.
Owned by Holly Whatling, the new salon is still in its first year. “I knew I always wanted to work for myself,” Holly explains. “I decided that following my maternity leave, I wanted to convert my garage into a salon and follow my dream of having my own space.
“My home salon has all the luxury surroundings of a salon but it benefits from the convenience of easy location and parking. My opening times are more flexible to client needs and I like to work in a relaxing and un-rushed environment, making the customer experience more personal.”
The salon offers a range of treatments including manicures and pedicures with CND SHELLAC™ and VINYLUX™, as well as spray tanning, LVL Lashes, Billion Dollar Brows and Diamond Peel Microdermbrasion. “I also run monthly Anti Wrinkle Injection Clinics with a fully qualified practitioner,” Holly adds.
