Beauty On Lannercost Opens Today

March 18, 2025

My Beauty Spot is set to open its new location at Beauty on Lannercost at 12 Lannercost Street. Owner Rebecca Weston said her dedication to getting to know the community has paid off, and her first week is already booked solid.

At the new location, Rebecca said clients can enjoy a wide range of treatments, including relax facials, skin concerns such as pigmentation, acne, anti-aging, and rosacea, and massage, waxing, and tinting.

“I love facials, but I love everything, I love body waxing, seeing the before and after is great,” she said.

Before moving to Ingham, Rebecca lived in Emu Park and had her own beauty salon there. She values the relationships she builds through her work, forming lasting friendships with clients.

“Even in Emu Park, I still keep in touch with former clients, and in Ingham, it's been really lovely to get to know the locals. I've got clients that I have here now that I see in the streets and say hello to.

Although Rebecca’s journey has taken many turns, including four years in the Navy and stints in hospitality and fashion, her heart has always been in beauty. Now, with her new salon set to open, she is eager to continue providing top-tier services to the Ingham community.

With extensive industry experience and a strong local focus, Ingham’s newest beauty salon is set to become a go-to destination for expert treatments in a welcoming space.
