Meet Richie
SALON OWNER
I have been living and breathing skin for almost 20 years.
I still pinch myself every day that I have been able to create my dream skin/body/health sanctuary where clients feel nurtured and at ease as soon as they walk through the pink salon door.
I am a firm believer in how you feel on the inside reflects how you look and feel on the outside.
​
Our skin is an indicator of all the things positive or negative we put on the inside and outside.
A big foundation of my practice delves into gut health, nutrition and emotional health which was further enhanced by studying kinesiology. I am always happy to share knowledge, advice and guide clients on leading a well balanced life, which in turn leads to healthy glowing skin.
As well as being a mum of 3 and running a beauty business, I have also started studying a Bachelor of Health Science majoring in nutrition.
​
Over the years I have learnt the art of nurturing one's self and not letting your cup get empty. (Especially as my job involves filling client’s cups back up!) Proper downtime, elevated self care and nutrition plays a major role for me to have vitality and clarity.
Consistency is key. I am all about having consistent rituals from my warm turmeric brew every morning to my nightly skincare ritual and daily positive self-talk.
