I have been using Up to Scratch Beauty for quite a while and would highly recommend for any beauty treatment. Janine is always friendly and helpful with any advice. I have had waxing and manicures and every time i walk out feeling great. Thank you Janine xx

Excellent, clean waxes and such a calm and comfortable environment; the room set up is very private and quiet… I feel very lucky to have found Janine! I have had so many bad waxes in my time that I have been known to travel miles to my old waxing person as to avoid any more bad experiences, but as she moved to Scotland I had to look around locally and found Janine first time thankfully!!

I’ve seen Janine twice now, both times for waxing and also this time had my LVL lash lift and tint. I was nervous to get the wax done at the start as it was the first time I had it done but she is so good and made me feel so comfortable and at ease! she did my lashes perfectly also and I feel confident going makeup free!
She is also super lovely and chatty and made me feel like I was chatting to an old friend. Definitely recommend her x

*LONG REVIEW BUT WORTH THE READ*
I found Janine on a random Google just over a year ago and I’ve seen her every single month since then.
Due to personal circumstances at the time, I hadn’t left the house or interacted with anybody in a long time.
I told Janine ahead of time that I might appear rude by not talking or making eye-contact due to my social anxiety, and she immediately put my mind at ease.
Upon arriving for my first appointment, Janine couldn’t have been more welcoming with her gentle approach. I was initially tearful and embarrassed - taking your clothes off in front of a stranger can be scary! But she has a natural ability to make anyone feel safe and comfortable.
I had opted for a top to toe wax and so was inevitably there for a while. By the end of my appointment I felt like I’d simply spent time catching up with an old friend.
Janine has played a major role in the improvement of my body confidence. Now, one year later, she has to remind me to wait for the blinds to close before whipping off my clothes! A far cry from the tearful girl too embarrassed to take off her socks.
In terms of her actual work; what a blimin’ revelation! I haven’t used in a razor in over 12 months and if I have to wait a bit longer between appointments, my hair growth is very fine and almost unnoticeable.
I recommend Janine to anyone and everyone. She’s not only the most amazing person but she’s incredible at what she does.
