What started in 2023 as a one-woman business in the spare room of Hannah’s house has grown into a team of talented artists and a salon we’re incredibly proud to call ours.
As VLH has grown, the philosophy behind it has stayed pretty simple: exceptional beauty treatments shouldn't have to come with a clinical or intimidating experience.
We care about education, quality and doing things properly, but we care just as much about how you feel while you’re here. Come in exactly as you are, have a laugh, tell us your life story or put your headphones in and enjoy some quiet time - there’s no pressure to be anything other than yourself.
We want you to leave with lashes and brows you love, but we also want the time you spend with us to be one of the best parts of your day.
Our Story & Philosophy
Ready to experience the VLH way?
You’ll find VLH in the heart of Mackay at Shop 3/326 Shakespeare Street - a space designed to feel a little different from your traditional beauty salon.
Think cool tones, moody Art Deco details, plenty of greenery and a relaxed atmosphere where you can settle in and make yourself at home.
We’ve created a space that’s polished without feeling clinical, elevated without feeling intimidating, and most importantly, somewhere both our clients and our team genuinely love spending time.
Come here for the lashes and brows, stay for the atmosphere.
