Elegant Beauty: Brows, Lashes and Facials in Upper Hutt

Elegant Beauty is an independent beauty salon based in Upper Hutt Central, bringing over 7 years of industry experience to a wide range of beauty services. Tucked behind the ANZ and near Tricky's Sandwich and Euphoria Hair & Tattoo shop, the salon has built its approach around a simple motto: make you feel beautiful.

Quality Over Quantity

Elegant Beauty describes its philosophy as prioritising quality over quantity, aiming for a personal experience with every visit. The salon says its approach to beauty care is built on consistently providing high customer satisfaction through unparalleled service, quality products, and a friendly atmosphere, all at a reasonable price/value relationship.

Brow Services, From Threading to Lamination

A big part of what Elegant Beauty offers centres on brows. Eyebrow threading uses twisted threads to remove hair quickly, with no risk of burns or swelling and results lasting 4-5 weeks; it's also a gentler option for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin. Eyebrow waxing takes the more traditional route with hot wax applied and removed with a cloth strip. For colour, eyebrow tinting uses pigment mixed with a peroxide oxidant for results lasting 3-4 weeks, while henna brows offer a more natural option that stains both skin and hair, filling in sparse areas and lasting up to 4-6 weeks on the hair itself.

For a fuller look without extensions, brow lamination straightens and lifts the brow hair, taking around 45 minutes on its own or about an hour when combined with a tint, with results lasting 6-8 weeks. The salon notes the process is non-invasive and pain-free.

Lash Treatments

Elegant Beauty offers two main lash options. Eyelash extensions build fuller, more voluminous lashes for anyone wanting a made-up look without daily mascara, while a lash lift offers a lower-maintenance alternative, taking around 45 minutes and lasting about 8 weeks with proper aftercare, giving natural lashes a lifted, curled finish.

An Extensive Facial Menu

Facials make up a significant part of Elegant Beauty's offering, drawing on several distinct treatment lines. Steaming facials open pores for a deep cleanse and boost skin moisture, while herbal, chocolate and fruit facials use plant-based and food-derived ingredients to cleanse, exfoliate and nourish. The salon also offers Aryanveda treatments, including papaya and banana facials alongside anti-ageing and skin tightening options, and Nutri Glow facials aimed at skin whitening and evening out tone, including a wine facial. The Lotus & Diamond line brings diamond-infused treatments into the mix, while more standard hydrating and anti-ageing facials round out the options for dry skin or fine lines. For deeper skin renewal, microdermabrasion is suitable for all skin types and can help with acne, bacne, and signs of premature ageing.

Beyond the Face

Elegant Beauty's services extend beyond brows, lashes and facials to include body waxing, manicures, body bleach treatments, and body scrubbing and polishing, giving clients a broader set of options within the one salon.
