SARAH & CO.

A name that's really mine


When I took over this salon in May 2026, it was called The Beauty Institute. But my love for this industry goes back much further than that. As a girl, I'd tag along to my mom's monthly appointments, and I never understood what I loved about it so much. What I've realised since is that it was never really about the treatments: it's about the serving, and there's nothing that fulfils me more than helping someone feel good about themselves. That's why we are Sarah & Co. Beauty: a name that's really mine, for a space where I hope you walk in and feel welcome, feel at peace, and feel free to just be you, away from whatever the day's been throwing at you.
