Swipe to see how we started 🤔 3 sittings over a year! Lightening and growing out created this beautiful o’natural look that this lady totally rocks! 👩🦳
⭐️Little reminder I have now moved location!! 8/18 Whistler Street, onto market lane. Stairs to the right beside the tattoo shop. Please call, dm or text for bookings, I book out 3/4 weeks in advance. Evenings and Saturdays can be up to 2/3 months so please give me plenty of notice and I will put you on the cancellation list. Policies do apply with my 48hour cancellation and deposits (starting May) this is to secure your booking.
Cant wait to see you all in my new spot ❤️🐚
Hello lovely ladies and gents.
Ar an Trà is moving 🐚
As many of you may already know, unfortunately my lovely salon is going to be demolished, so I am embarking on a new chapter in a new salon in Manly. From 9th April Ar an Trà is moving to 8/18 Market Lane/Whistler Street to a boutique salon upstairs beside Whistler street tattoo. I hope to see you all there.
As part of my move, I have a little request regarding bookings. I kindly ask for a deposit when you book your appointment, and here's why: It helps me organise my schedule efficiently, ensuring I can give you the top-notch service you deserve. Plus, it secures your spot in my busy calendar, especially during peak times or for longer appointments! Your deposit goes towards your total bill, so no worries there. If plans change, I understand – just give me a heads up within my cancellation window of 48 hours from your booking for a refund.
Thanks for your support! Can't wait to see you in the new location soon. Happy holidays! 🐣
Love Tara x

Much Love 💙
