Back open for your beauty therapy needs ... and new at home options

Ahuriri Beauty Therapy is now back open, offering treatments in our beauty room. Re-opening comes after much consideration for your and our safety, so with this, we will be increasing our cleaning between appointments, giving ourselves 15 minutes to sanitise surfaces and equipment and replace linen. I will be wearing a mask and gloves when possible and we have a new perspex screen at the nail table. The night before your appointment, you will receive a text with a quick form to complete just to check that you are well and on the day, we ask if you can wait in your car until I text and let you know that the room is ready for your treatment. Any purchases from the...

A little pick me up you can do at home

How are you going? I hope this finds you well.  I needed a little pick me up the other day and am finding that the mixture of stress and missing my monthly facial is playing havoc with my skin, so I went searching for an at-home treatment I could do. I found a great article by @elleuk for masks with ingredients found in our fridge! I made myself a full facial with steam from a boiling pot of water, my home made mask and listened to some meditation. It was perfect! Choose yours here. Alternatively, if you are well stocked with Nimue skincare, we'll be sharing their at home DIY videos on facebook as they're available. Pop on over to have a look. See you soon, stay safeAmber x

Tips for getting the best results from your spray tan

Waxing and shaving leaves the pores open which can lead to an uneven tan if applied too soon. Schedule laser hair removal for at least 24 hours before tanning.

Exfoliating removes dead skin cells, dirt, and oil from the surface of your skin leaving a smooth surface to apply to. Remember those hard to reach areas that often get missed and the tougher spots of your knees, elbows, knuckles and ankles. Apply a moisturiser and good all-over polish the night before tanning, but avoid any...

Are you looking for a beautiful brow that lasts, without painful permanent techniques?

Wanting to avoid fake looking caterpillar brows? Fed up of tints that simply don't last?  I hear you! I am so pleased to now be able to offer you a brow design and tint service, using henna tinting for a longer lasting look. The brow is mapped and shaped according to the shape of your face and your preference to achieve a natural look that frames your face. Then a natural henna dye is applied to stain the skin and hair for a fuller, longer lasting tint effect. Results can last up to 2 weeks on the skin and 4-6 weeks on the brow hair, reducing the need for re-tints. Katie says about her brows, "Soooo happy with them Amber!!Been showing them...
