About us

At Genesis we are devoted to you, and finding unique cuts, colours and styles that express your true glamorous and confident self. That is why the first thing we ask a guest is not how they want to look - but how they feel.

We achieve this at Genesis by delivering our unique experience based on our dedication to non-stop training, development and evolution of every team member, thus ensuring an engaged stylist totally focused in delivering specific education for our guests wants and needs, specialised services as well as tailor made treatments. This Philosophy defines us as a team, sets our standards and sets us apart - thus providing the focus for a truly exceptional salon experience.

Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

Rafaela was very professional and we talked about exactly what I wanted in my new hairstyle. Having heard what I wanted, we looked at a number of styles so she could check my preferences.
The results are amazing. I went from having long straight hair to having hair with body and bounce.
I cannot lay back to have my hair washed, but this wasn’t a problem as they accommodated me leaning forward instead.
I was anxious about getting this done but was put completely at ease by the way I was looked after by all the staff at Genesis but especially Rafaela.

Rafaela is talented and is so knowledgeable in hair and colour . I had my appointment with her (upon recently her returning to shop) THANK GOODNESS ~ I waited for her return and would not let anyone touch my hair since she worked her AMAZING MAGIC on me over 16 months ago. I think anyone would be hard pressed to find a better Beautician!!! I like Genesis salon very much and no other hairstylist can’t hold a candle to Rafeala!! D.Foreman
