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!’

Hello! My name is Valerie and I’m a Nail Technician who can’t wait to transform your nails!

Chloe
Hi, I’m Chloe, a qualified nail technician specialising in gel and builder gel nails, and I’ve been qualified since 2024.
I’ve always loved doing my own nails from a young age, so becoming a nail tech felt like the perfect way to turn something I’ve always enjoyed into a career — while creating beautiful nails for other people and helping them feel their best.
I’m a huge lover of the clean-girl builder gel vibe — think natural, glossy and effortlessly classy. But I also love creating a timeless classic French, and I’m definitely a sucker for a gorgeous block colour too. 🤍
Outside of nails, I’m a full-time mummy to my beautiful boy, who is my absolute world. Since becoming a mum, life naturally got a little busy and something had to give, but now I’m so excited to be back doing what I love.
I can’t wait to meet new faces at the salon, build new friendships and work alongside such a lovely, empowering bunch of women. ✨
When I’m not at the salon or being a mummy, you’ll usually find me drinking coffee, travelling the world and spending time with friends & family — three things I absolutely love!
I’m so excited for this next chapter and can’t wait to create some beautiful nails with you. 💅🏼🤍
Lilly
I’ve always had a real passion for nails and nail technology, especially because I love making people feel happy, confident and pretty. For me, being a nail tech isn’t just about creating a nice set of nails — it’s about having that little bit of time to relax, have a chat and leave feeling amazing!
I offer gel overlays, BIAB and gel extensions, with lots of options when it comes to colours, designs and nail art. I absolutely LOVE bright colours and, of course, nail art — some may even say it’s my speciality I love getting creative and bringing your ideas to life, whether you know exactly what you want or need a little inspiration.
Outside of nails, I work in sales and customer service, and I’m currently working on my driving skills with the hope of being on the roads very soon! I’d also love to travel the world one day, and you’ll probably hear me talking about how amazing Australia is at some point
I’m so excited to meet lots of new people, make new friendships and create a little nail space where everyone feels comfortable, welcome and beautiful.
