Salon Sixty-Five

Your neck reveals your age before your face does... here's how we change that. ✨🤍

When we think about ageing, most of us focus on our face... but the neck is often one of the first places to show fine lines, loss of firmness and crepey skin.

That's why I don't stop at your jawline.

Every microneedling facial I perform includes the neck, because it deserves the same care and attention as the rest of your skin.

So, what is microneedling?

Using thousands of tiny, controlled micro-channels, the skin's natural healing response is activated. This encourages the production of collagen and elastin – the proteins responsible for keeping skin firm, smooth and resilient. As your skin repairs itself over the following weeks, you'll notice improvements in texture, firmness and the appearance of fine lines.

This isn't about changing your face or looking "done." It's about helping your skin do what it was designed to do... just a little more efficiently.

✨ Smoother skin.
✨ Improved texture.
✨ Firmer-looking neck and jawline.
✨ A healthy, natural glow.

The best results come from a course of treatments, as collagen continues to build over time. Every treatment plan is tailored to your skin and your goals.

If you've been investing in skincare but feel your neck is giving away your age, this could be the missing piece of your routine.

Ready to give your skin a collagen boost? Send me a DM with the word "COLLAGEN" and I'll happily chat you through the treatment, answer your questions, and help you decide if microneedling is right for you. 🤍

✨ Your Hollywood wax doesn't end when you leave the salon... this part matters just as much. ✨🤍

A beautiful, smooth result starts with a professional wax... but how you care for your skin afterwards plays a huge part in how comfortable your recovery is and how great your results last.

For the first 24–48 hours, try to:
🤍 Avoid hot baths, saunas and steam rooms.
🤍 Skip the gym and anything that causes excessive sweating.
🤍 Wear loose, breathable clothing to reduce friction.
🤍 Avoid heavily fragranced products on the area. 🤍 No sunbeds or prolonged sun exposure.

Once your skin has settled, gentle exfoliation 2–3 times a week and regular moisturising can help prevent ingrown hairs and keep your skin feeling silky smooth between appointments.

One thing my clients know about me... I don't just remove hair. I genuinely care about your skin before, during and after every appointment. From making nervous first-time waxers feel completely at ease to achieving the smoothest results possible, waxing is what I'm known for—and I absolutely love it.

If you've been thinking about ditching the razor, this is your sign.

✨ Whether it's your very first Hollywood wax or you're looking for a waxing specialist you can trust, you're always welcome here.

📩 My diary is open for new clients. Send me a DM to book your appointment and experience the difference expert waxing can make. 🤍

Trust the process... this is only the beginning. 🤍✨

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is all about restoring the appearance of fuller, denser hair using thousands of tiny pigment impressions that blend seamlessly with your natural hair. Whether you're experiencing thinning hair, pattern baldness, or simply want to create the illusion of more density, SMP is a treatment that can make a huge difference to your confidence.

This is the start of one of my client's density restoration journeys. As with any treatment, comfort comes first. Sometimes sitting still for a long session isn't easy, so we simply adapt. We break the treatment into shorter appointments because I'd rather you feel comfortable than rush the process. Great results are built over time.

After taking a break from scalp tattooing, I honestly can't tell you how grateful I am to be back. There's something incredibly rewarding about helping someone regain confidence, one tiny impression at a time. ❤️

To achieve the best healed results, aftercare is just as important as the treatment itself. Following your aftercare advice allows the pigment to settle correctly and helps each session build towards the finished look.

✨ Suitable for both men and women
✨ Creates the illusion of fuller, denser hair
✨ Non-surgical
✨ Low maintenance
✨ Tailored to your hair, skin tone, and goals

If thinning hair has been affecting your confidence, imagine how it could feel to stop worrying about it every day.

📅 Appointments for male and female scalp tattooing are now available from September.

Send me a DM with "SMP" to find out if this treatment is right for you, or book your consultation today. Your confidence journey starts with the first session. 🤍

And yes... if you've spotted the street looking a little worse for wear in this reel... blame bin day! 🤦‍♀️ Thankfully it doesn't usually resemble a rubbish collection point! 😂

At -FIVE, it's about more than just treatments. It's about walking into a welcoming, relaxed space where you can switch off, feel looked after, and leave feeling like the best version of yourself.
