Ebony

Lash Specialist & Beauty Therapist

From an early age Ebony was creating day spas at home to make pocket money. “I have always been acutely aware of the need for aesthetics through my own experience growing up in a dance school and competing in dance competitions and concerts; that is what originally got me into the makeup space and it has grown from there”.

After finishing VCE Ebony started up her own makeup and eyelash extension business from scratch operating from a home-based salon. She has also completed her Diploma of Beauty Therapy to expand the business. As her small business was growing exponentially, she decided to team up with her mother Simone who had just entered the aesthetics industry as a cosmetic injector.

Ebony on Simone “She is not only my mum, but my best friend and we have been able to create this beautiful salon together and bring our combined ideas to life. We think the fact that we are a mother and daughter combination gives us a unique environment which is less clinical and more welcoming”.

Simone

Registered Nurse/Cosmetic Injector

After graduating with a Bachelor of Nursing Simone worked as an Associate Nurse Unit Manager for 20 years in medical and high dependency units.

Working with leading Ophthalmologist surgeons led her to the path of cosmetic nursing, where she could combine her passion and interest in the beauty, care, health and science space.

She cherished the chance to open the salon with her daughter Ebony where they look after the local community whilst working together. “I get to live the dream of working day to day with one of my children and best of all starting it from scratch to create a welcoming environment run by a mother and daughter”.

Simone on Ebony “Ebony used to set up her own day spa at home when she was 9 or 10 years old called Ooh La La Spa as a way to get pocket money from me; it is what she has always been destined to do”.
