Beauty282 is Jo Holm's beauty therapy studio at 282 King Street in Temuka, South Canterbury. Jo brings more than 25 years of industry experience to the chair — including years successfully owning and working within her own business in London — and her goal is simple: a professional, friendly environment in which to enjoy the many popular beauty treatments on offer.
The treatment menu is broad for a small-town studio. Waxing is performed with Lycon products, known for their fine resins, natural ingredients and aromatherapy oils, while facials use Katherine Daniels skincare for treatments that are both relaxing and rejuvenating. More clinical work includes courses of electrolysis, red vein removal to reclaim a fresher, smoother complexion, and skin tag removal.
Eyes get dedicated attention too, with eyelash extensions, eyelash lifting, and eyelash and brow tinting, alongside spray tanning and massage. The studio keeps weekday hours — open late on Wednesday and Thursday evenings — and appointments can be made online, by phone on 021 0268 1697, or by email.
Tucked at 282 King Street in the South Canterbury town of Temuka, Beauty282 is a personal beauty therapy studio run by Jo Holm. The idea behind the salon is a simple one: to provide a professional, friendly environment in which to enjoy the many popular beauty treatments on offer — from precision waxing and course-based electrolysis to relaxing facials, lash work and spray tanning.
What distinguishes Beauty282 is the experience behind the treatment chair. Jo brings more than 25 years of industry experience, including years successfully owning and working within her own business in London. Now back and settled in beautiful South Canterbury, she pairs that background with one-on-one care that larger, busier clinics often struggle to match.
Whether you are in need of waxing, a course of electrolysis, red vein removal, a relaxing or rejuvenating facial, or simply an eyebrow tint and shape, the stated goal is the same: the finest results in every treatment offered.
Beauty282 covers a genuinely wide spread of beauty therapy. Waxing is performed with Lycon products, a brand built on the finest resins, natural ingredients and aromatherapy oils — a combination chosen for precise, comfortable results.
Facial treatments use Katherine Daniels products, supporting facials that are as rejuvenating as they are relaxing, with a single therapist tracking how your skin responds over time.
The eyes get their own dedicated attention: eyelash extensions for added length and volume, eyelash lifting for a low-maintenance curl, and eyelash and brow tinting to define without daily makeup. An eyebrow tint and shape is one of the quickest ways to tidy up a look — and one of the most popular appointments on any salon menu.
Beyond the classic salon services, Beauty282 offers treatments many small-town studios do not. Electrolysis is available as a course of treatments for the lasting removal of unwanted hair — a proven method that rewards commitment. The same technology underpins red vein removal, which removes and eliminates unsightly thread veins, reclaiming a fresher and smoother complexion. Skin tag removal rounds out this more clinical side of the menu.
Add spray tanning for a sun-free glow and massage for pure relaxation, and the studio covers most of what a regular beauty routine could ask for. That breadth matters: rather than visiting one studio for lashes, another for facials and a third for vein work, locals can consolidate their appointments with a therapist who knows their history and preferences.
Beauty282 keeps weekday hours that work around real life: Monday from 10am to 2pm, Tuesday from 10am to 5pm, Wednesday from 10am to 8pm, Thursday from noon to 8pm, and Friday from 10am to 5pm. The salon is closed on weekends, but two late nights midweek make after-work appointments easy.
Booking is straightforward — the salon takes online bookings through the Book Now link on its website, or you can phone Jo directly on 021 0268 1697 or email beauty282tka@gmail.com. You will also find Beauty282 on Facebook.
If you live in Temuka or the wider South Canterbury area and have been looking for a therapist who offers everything from waxing to electrolysis under one roof, Beauty282 at 282 King Street is worth a look — a small studio where experience, precision and a genuinely friendly welcome come as standard.
