Essential Maintenance Beauty

Every September we celebrate another trip around the sun, and this year feels particularly special as we prepare to introduce the next chapter of hair removal at Essential Maintenance.

To celebrate, we’ll have Fizz Fridays, exclusive birthday offers, and plenty of reasons to pop into the salon. If you’re not already on our mailing list, now’s the time to join so you don’t miss a thing—we’d love to celebrate with you.

A consultation isn’t a box-ticking exercise—it’s one of the most important parts of your treatment.

Before we carry out any advanced hair removal treatment, we need to understand your medical history, medications, supplements, skin, hair and lifestyle to make sure you’re a suitable candidate and that your treatment can be carried out as safely as possible.

Especially with laser hair removal, even things like certain medications or vitamins can increase your skin’s sensitivity to light, which is why we’ll never skip this step. Your consultation is where we build the safest and most effective treatment plan for you.

Only 30 days until laser officially arrives at Essential Maintenance. ✨

Behind the scenes, Rebecca isn’t just counting down—she’ll be spending the next few weeks completing her laser core knowledge, practical training and final preparations, all whilst enjoying a little summer with her family before launch.

Our first laser clinic is planned for 17th September, so keep your eyes peeled for details on how to join the VIP waitlist and be first in line for our introductory offers.

“Why has it taken you 11 years to bring in laser?”

Because we didn’t want to offer it until it genuinely made sense for our clients.

Essential Maintenance began with natural hair removal methods like waxing, sugaring and threading before introducing electrolysis as we saw more clients wanting permanent hair removal—including those with PCOS, hormonal hair growth and our trans community.

As your needs have evolved, so have we, and bringing laser into the clinic felt like the natural next step in helping even more people feel confident in their skin.

Laser may be new to the clinic—but hair removal certainly isn’t.

For over 11 years we’ve specialised in understanding hair growth cycles, different hair types and multiple hair removal modalities. We teach therapists how to remove hair, we’ve helped thousands of clients find the right treatment, and now we’re adding laser to the toolkit.

The technology may be new, but the expertise behind it has been built over more than a decade.

If you’ve ever tried booking with Rebecca, you’ll know her diary fills up quickly.

That’s exactly why we’ve created a VIP Laser Waitlist. By joining, you’ll be first to hear about our introductory offers, you’ll receive your FREE consultation and patch test, and you’ll have the best chance of securing one of the first laser appointments when bookings open. Join via the link in our Instagram bio, scan one of the QR codes in the salon, or sign up through our mailing list—we’d love to welcome you to this next chapter.

Tell me I’m not the only one that loathes content days 😂😅🫠

Laser hair removal might be new to Essential Maintenance… but understanding hair growth certainly isn’t.

You may have heard people say laser “didn’t work” or that they just kept needing more and more sessions.

One of the biggest reasons for this can be treatment timing.

Laser is most effective when the hair is in the active growth (anagen) phase, and because every area of the body follows a different hair growth cycle, timing really matters. That’s where our expertise comes in.

Hair removal has always been our speciality, so we’ll tailor your treatment schedule to your individual hair growth patterns rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

You may even notice that your appointments are spaced differently from what you’ve experienced elsewhere—and that’s intentional.

Keep your eyes peeled to see when our laser bookings go live. We can’t wait to welcome you in for a consultation.
