DID YOU KNOW?

Our skin is our largest organ, and EVERYTHING you put on it absorbs into your bloodstream within 26 seconds. That includes our scalp! Are you aware that most women walk out the door of their home each day with at least 80 chemicals being absorbed into their body, and that your liver has to process all of those toxins?

That toxic load affects our whole system, including our hormonal and nervous systems, triggering all sorts of dis-ease and disharmony in the physical and emotional body.

All that I have studied, learnt and continue to educate myself on is creating a new awareness. An awareness of nourishing my body, staff and clients with a fume-free, low toxin space aligned with the earth's integrity, our bodies, reducing our footprint and paving a new way. All whilst continuing to develop my art and creative flare.

THE CLEANER AND GREENER APPROACH

In 2010, I first opened my salon JC's Inspirational Hair, back then I was a fresh-faced 18-year old with big dreams and ambition. I was lead down the path of an alternate 'cleaner-greener" approach to the hair industry as a point of difference.

Much has evolved, changed and grown in business and within myself. Deep down the core of my heart and values are the same. I may not have known it initially, but going green, was by far one of the best decisions I ever made.

Almost 14 years on and I'm more passionate each day about creating an environmentally and health-conscious business. I'm driven to build awareness and educate the industry to be more environmentally friendly and health-conscious.

This is not a trend, this is a lifestyle.

People. PlaneT. Profit. Play. Purpose.


These 5 P's are my core values. They help keep me centred in my purpose of Arise Studio, which is to:

  • Create a platform with simple health-conscious approaches anyone can adopt. 
  • Reveal companies with transparency, high integrity, impeccable values, with ecological and sustainable practices.
  • Provide eco-friendly, waste-reducing initiatives that support the earth.
  • Re-educate an industry that provides so much outer beauty to this world.
  • Support the industry with wellbeing and health practices to support longevity in your career
 
This business has provided me with connection, community and a way to share my gifts and passions for natural solutions, sustainability practices, green chemistry education, environmentally friendly choices, low tox living and natural beauty. 

Together we make conscious change, one person, one salon at a time. Let us continually go back to our roots (pun intended) and redefine what it really means to cultivate beauty from the inside out.

After all, your body is the only place you have to live. 

And mama earth, well she needs us too.

REWIND over A DECADE


I was a 2nd year apprentice,

Doors opened and I hired staff to support finishing my training, completing both my Certificate III and then my Diploma in Salon Management. I had a keen eye for fashion work and styling, receiving 2nd place in the Darling Downs WorldSkills Competition very early on. This path continued winning CHI Colourist of the year in 2013 and many other creative cutting and colouring awards over 2013 and 2014.

After 4 years in the centre of town,

I closed my salon doors in July 2014 to solo backpack through Europe before landing in London and working for 6months in Soho and Crouch End. The industry was not as clean and ethical as I had anticipated at the time. I landed my dream job but I was burnout outm running on empty and missed the Aussie sunshine. It was then I realised I was well ahead of the game in my approach to the industry and how I wanted to continue my career with longevity. I flew home, lived a few months on the Gold Coast, before returning to my country roots. In late 2015 I reopened my doors, rebuilt my clientele from scratch, and studied Barbering and Trichology. Knowing exactly how I wanted to rebuild a business that supported me financially, my health and the lifestyle I wanted. . 

Fast forward 8 years

I have a thriving small business where I work 3 days per week, no Saturdays and see clients one-on-one by appointment only in my lush home salon. My lifestyle is balanced both beyond and behind the chair so I can show up fully to serve my clientele. My intention is to create a space to exhale and unwind for each person who walks through my salon door. A space for self-care, education, wellbeing and cultivating a calm nervous system. I create a peaceful space and play some good tunes, so a warm hug envelopes you at the door.
