Shannon Maree Beauty is a beauty salon in Island Bay, Wellington, specialising in lash lifting, brow shaping, tinting and lamination, as well as body waxing. Shannon brings over four years of experience to the salon, with a modern and unique style she's developed within Wellington's beauty industry.
Shannon prides herself on providing high quality, personalised treatments, using only the best products and techniques available to ensure a flawless result for every client. Clients describe her as talented, professional and easy to feel comfortable around, with a habit of making sure she understands exactly what look someone is going for before starting.
One client recounted how, after a previous salon over-processed her lashes before a visit, Shannon explained the situation clearly, couldn't proceed with the treatment that day, and applied a lash growth serum free of charge — a moment that speaks to the salon's approach of putting client wellbeing ahead of pushing through a treatment.
On The Parade in Island Bay, Shannon Maree Beauty has built a loyal following around lash lifting, brow shaping, tinting and lamination, along with body waxing, all delivered by owner Shannon herself.
Shannon brings over four years of experience to her salon, developing what she describes as a modern and unique style within Wellington's beauty industry. Rather than treating clients as one more appointment on the books, she prides herself on high quality, personalised treatments, using the best products and techniques available to get a flawless result for every client.
The salon's core services centre on brows and lashes. A Brow Shape treatment tidies up eyebrow shape on its own, while Brow Lamination goes further, setting brow hairs into a fuller, more groomed look. For those wanting both shaping and colour in one visit, the Brow Shape + Tint combines the two, and a standalone Lash Tint/Brow Tint service is available for a simpler colour refresh.
On the lash side, the Lash Lift + Tint pairs a lift with a tint for lashes that look longer and more defined without extensions, while the Eye Trio bundles eye treatments together for a more complete result. Body waxing rounds out Shannon's specialities, giving clients a one-stop option for both facial and body beauty treatments.
Reviews of Shannon Maree Beauty consistently point to two things: the quality of the work, and how comfortable Shannon makes clients feel. One client described being "obsessed" with her brows and lash lift after a visit, calling Shannon "a beautiful person" who's just as happy to chat as to let you relax. Another called her "everything you want in a beauty therapist," praising both her talent and her ability to put clients at ease from the moment they walk in, along with her transparency about what to expect from each treatment.
One review stood out for a different reason. A client arrived for a lash lift after a previous salon had over-processed her lashes. Rather than proceeding regardless, Shannon explained the situation clearly, couldn't safely go ahead with the lift that day, and applied a lash growth serum at no charge — a small gesture that left the client planning to return, and a clear sign of how the salon prioritises client wellbeing over simply completing a booked treatment.
Appointments at Shannon Maree Beauty can be booked online, and the salon also welcomes phone or email enquiries for anyone with questions before booking. Located at 296 The Parade in Island Bay, the salon is a straightforward option for Wellington locals after a dedicated lash and brow specialist, backed by genuinely enthusiastic client reviews.
Whether it's a simple brow shape, a full lash lift and tint, or body waxing, Shannon Maree Beauty positions itself around getting the details right and making sure every client leaves with the look they actually asked for.
