Hollie
Hi, I’m Hollie the owner of Beau Monde,
It’s been great seeing the girls settle into becoming self-employed and taking on more roles to run their business within Beau Monde, so I could step back to have baby Betsy Arabella 💕
I’m absolutely loving being off at the moment, as with Ted, I came back way too soon looking back, so all being well I’d like to take longer than I originally planned and will continue to try and recruit to accommodate but I am very much around and still have plans to convert my garage.
Beau Monde will always be at Parkfarm and I will continue to recruit the right staff so your experience and quality of your treatment is always second to none!
I try and pass on to anyone who works at Beau Monde to believe in changing peoples day for the better, my aim is for you to always walk out feeling like you could take on the world, not only from a great set of nails but the experience, and time out you get when you sit down with us. Beau Monde should be your sanctuary, your place to laugh and relax, a place I will always be working on behind the scenes to determine how I can make it the perfect experience every time.
I look forward to seeing you all again soon!
Sarah
Hi I’m Sarah, I have been working in the beauty industry since I was 16 when I started studying Beauty at College. The first time I picked up a nail brush I knew I had found my dream job and to this day, 23 years later, I am still enjoying learning and expanding my knowledge through Beau Monde😊
I am a very creative person who is passionate about the nail industry and Beau Monde, having been a key member of our team for 23 years, only leaving to have my beautiful daughter Mia in the interim, I enjoy putting the world to rights and having a good chin wag whilst making our clients feel better about themselves.
Hollie the owner of Beau Monde quotes – ‘Sarah is a true part of what makes Beau Monde what it is today. I just want to thank Sarah for helping maintain and keep Beau Monde’s quality and standard over the years with Sarah’s bubbly personality and kind manner. Sarah has lots of regulars, so many giggles on - the days just fly by. Thank you for making clients feeling fabulous Sarah!’

Madison
Welcome back Madison ✨✨✨
Madison qualified as a nail tech and beauty therapist in 2021. Working in both spas and salons….
‘ I quickly fell in love with working in a salon’
My love for creating the best set of nails with a cuppa and a chat is the perfect day for me.
Very soon after applying for the job opportunity at Beau Monde in 2023 I received an email to say I had qualified for a position in a spa in Greece for 6 months
(Shirley valentine or what 💁♀️🇬🇷)
After coming back from Greece I opened a salon in Belper where I perfected my skills and have built a clientele up Thurs-sat , I’m excited to get thrown back in the deep end at Beau Monde on Mondays to mix my week up’.
Madison has been with us for about a month now working Mondays 9.30-6 and some Wednesdays, building up lots of new clients here with us,
getting all 5 * reviews 🤩

Chloe
Hey I’m Chloe,
I started my nail journey early last year and have loved building my confidence and skills here at Beau Monde. It’s something I have always wanted to get into and feel that now was the right time.
Now here’s some things about me….
I love talking🤣
I’ve recently got into walking which I am enjoying but can’t seem to get past the 10k mark (maybe one day). I also spend time at the gym and relaxing in the spa.
I love a strawberry daiquiri, especially on my holidays or at a bottomless brunch and have a slight addiction to Dubai chocolate (another reason to get past the 10k mark)🤣
My absolute favourite thing I enjoy doing is spending time with friends and family, making memories.

Jo
Hi, I’m Jo!
I recently qualified in BIAB and gel nails and have just started my journey as a nail technician. I’m thrilled to be part of the lovely, creative team here at Beaumonde. It truly feels like the start of a new and exciting chapter in my life.
Outside of work, I love fashion and shopping and enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I believe it’s important to balance work with the things and people that make you happy, and that’s what motivates me each day.
I’ve really enjoyed meeting all the lovely clients, having a chat, and helping you feel your best.
Love,
Jo x

Ava
Hi im Ava, and my nail journey actually started right here at Beau Monde as the Saturday girl. I fell in love with nail art from the very beginning, and I’m so happy to be back in the salon creating sets I’m truly proud of.
I love creating nails that make people feel confident, creative, and totally themselves. From clean and simple sets to bold designs and everything in between.
I’m all about good vibes, attention to detail, and making your appointment feel like a relaxing little getaway. ✨
After growing my skills and passion over the years, I’m so happy to be back at the salon doing what I love most
Thank you for all your support, old and new and for supporting my journey! I can’t wait to meet you and bring your nail ideas to life ❤️
