Welcome to Wow Beauty’s little black book of beauty experiences that we love and would personally recommend from across the UK… all of these have been tried and tested by our team. So if you’re looking for a new facialist, a holistic therapist, nails and more, you’re in the right place. Enjoy our guide to treats in the UK!
Facialists
Dija Ayodele – West Room Aesthetics
Why
Encouraged by the countless number of black women who visit her clinic every week seeking advice and treatments on caring for their skin but unable to find it from mainstream sources, Dija was inspired to create a space in which women of colour could safely and confidently satisfy their skincare needs. A place where women of colour wouldn’t have to question suitability of treatments, products or advice but could relax in the full knowledge that everything on offer was designed and chosen specifically with darker skin tones in mind and their needs were implicitly understood.

Michelle Roques O’Neil
Why
Denise first came across Michelle at least 14 years ago when she had a studio in St. John’s Wood and she was in need of ‘balance’.
What Michelle does is pure alchemy. She works pure magic and we wholeheartedly recommend not only her services as an aromatherapist but also her products from her brand Therapie.
Michelle is a leading aromatherapist with over 40 years experience, but more than that she is a gifted healer. These are good descriptors but in truth, it is difficult to find the right words to describe Michelle …because for me and many that have experienced her treatments, she is pure alchemy.
