Welcome to Care Beyond The Chair Ltd
Support for the stylist. Care for the person.
You love what you do, but we know the physical and mental toll the industry can take. Between long hours on your feet and the emotional energy given to every client, it’s easy to feel drained.
At Care Beyond The Chair, we don’t offer false promises of a "perfect day." We provide good, old-fashioned advice and genuine understanding to help you stay mentally and physically healthy while doing the job you love.
Real Advice from the Heart of a Hairdresser
This isn't just theory—it comes from the heart of someone who has stood in your shoes. With over 20 years of experience as a Salon Manager, I have navigated the highs and lows of the industry, including my own journey through mental ill health.
I am a Mental Health Advocate and Level 2 First Aider. While I am not a mental health professional, I am here to share the practical techniques I learned through CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) that helped me find a way forward. Whether you are a student just starting out or a fellow salon owner, I want to share what worked for me to help you thrive too.
Don’t just take my word for it—Read My Testimonials to see how these techniques are helping others.
