Wishing all my old and new clients a very happy and healthy New Year! 🖤

It’s been another year full of changes for Captiva Beauty, both personally and professionally. Over the last 12 months I began working at Lanercost School as the school cook – a role I thoroughly enjoy. It means I’m close to Alfie, never miss anything school-related (he’s growing up way too fast!), and I have that all-important financial security… and yes, a pension (apparently I’m getting old, hate to admit it!).

Because of this, it made complete sense to find beauty premises close to the school, and I honestly couldn’t be more grateful to Charlotte for providing such a beautiful, calm space. I now work from Lanercost Monday to Friday afternoons, offering treatments in a relaxed and peaceful environment.

I also still offer from Carlisle-home based appointments on evenings and Saturdays – slightly less relaxed (or maybe too relaxed 🤔), as children, husband, French bulldogs and Bengal cats are almost always in attendance 🐶 🐈 🧑‍🧒‍🧒🏡

I now use Fresha for bookings, which on the whole is great and sends appointment reminders (though not the location, so please always double-check if you’re unsure!). However, I will still be making all appointments so if you need to change anything drop me a message 💬 or give me a call 📱

So here’s to a new year 🥂
I can’t promise I’ll be any less chaotic… but I can promise:
• good crack
• inappropriate memes
• Netflix recommendations
• humour
• amazing nails
• high-quality products
• 20+ years of experience
• a relaxed, friendly atmosphere

You’re all part of my elite squad. I love you all, trust you all, and probably share way too much – but it’s a safe, welcoming environment for everyone, and I absolutely love that 🖤 Never a dull moment 🤣

Thank you, always.

Louise 💋

To help keep things running smoothly over the busy Christmas period, a 50% non-refundable deposit is now required for all appointments. If you need to cancel, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance to avoid any charges. Thank you so much for your understanding and support! 💅🎄🎁

Please arrive on time for appointments, I will be running just about to the minute. I will
contact you if it will be earlier/later. Once turned in at Tearoom, head straight up and pass private sign. Green door is straight ahead. Please remember to park to the right hand side of the green door and switch your engine off if you are waiting, thank you 🙏 xx

Between now and Christmas I have 4 salon spaces left to book… I have extra availability half term week and the odd evening, however if you haven’t got your upcoming appointments booked in please send me a message so I can make sure it’s in 🎅🎄🌠

⭐️ Please be aware that I will be starting my day no earlier than 1.15pm as I need to finish up at the school 🏫. If you’re unsure send me a message 📲 I won’t be too far away. Please wait in your car 🚗
Thank you 🙏

Good morning 🌅 — A quick note to reassure you that our BIAB products do not contain TPO.
Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide (TPO) has been banned across the European Union (including all 27 EU member states, plus Norway and Switzerland) as of 1 September 2025, due to its classification as a CMR category 1B substance—meaning it’s potentially carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic for reproduction    .
This ban also prohibits the use of any products containing TPO in professional settings, even if already in stock   .

In the UK, however, the ban is not in force yet. Instead, the UK is expected to roll out a similar prohibition in late 2026, giving salons and suppliers additional time to transition   .

Rest assured: your BIAB is TPO-free, and we will continue offering safe, compliant alternatives throughout this transition.

Comments so far and we are only on day 2! “This place is so relaxing”— “I never want to leave, I could honestly live here!” If you’re looking for pure relaxation and great ambiance, this is the place.

Love ❤️

So happy to welcome you all to my new space at Lanercost. Just a little house keeping for your reference…
