Beauty salon & training academy

Trained by Emma. Treated by Emma.

Private 1:1 beauty training for new and established professionals, alongside expert lash, brow, nail, tan and makeup treatments for clients.

I'm an award-winning educator with over 600 students trained, some travelling from as far as Australia, Japan and Barbados. Every student learns with me individually, one to one, from start to finish.

The same person, start to finish

Emma runs both sides of the business herself. The person who treats you in the salon is the person who trains you in the academy.

  • One-to-one training

    Courses are taught individually, so the pace, the questions and the practice time are yours.

  • Clear prices before you book

    Every course page shows the full price, any booking fee and what is left to pay. Salon prices are listed with each treatment.

  • Flexible ways to pay

    Pay for a course in full, secure your place with a booking fee where one is offered, or spread the cost with Klarna at checkout.

  • In Portglenone

    Treatments and training both take place in Portglenone, County Antrim.
