Hey, I'm Amy... Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I’ve been working in the beauty industry for over 15 years, starting my career straight from school and quickly falling in love with salon life. That passion led me to open The Secret Escape in 2013, in Chelmsford city centre.
my story
THE FACE BEHIND THE BUSINESS
Every treatment is approached with care, intention, and attention to detail — because you deserve results that feel as good as they look. My goal is for every client to leave feeling relaxed, confident, and truly looked after.
Welcoming Experience
Trust & Integrity
Natural Results
PERSONAL
MY VALUES
PASSION
Precision & Expertise
Over the following 10 years, I built a loyal clientele and established The Secret Escape as a respected salon. As my expertise evolved, I chose to take the business in a new direction, one centred around bespoke treatments, natural enhancements, and a calm experience.
In 2023, I brought that vision to life with The Secret Escape Face & Body in Maldon.. a tranquil clinic specialising in nails, personalised beauty treatments and permanent makeup.
The Secret Escape has been recognised within the industry, with features in Scratch magazine, Essex Life, and British Vogue.
My ethos has always remained the same: to enhance what you naturally have. Every face is unique, and each treatment is tailored to suit you. Never a one-size-fits-all approach.
My PHILOSOPHY
Maya
Have been seeing Amy for regular beauty treatments for way over a year now. The first time I met Amy I was instantly at ease, she is not only the kindest soul you will ever meet but also extremely talented in her work! Amy does my nails and eyelash extensions regularly and have always been nothing short of absolute perfection! I have not had permanent makeup done myself, but the sheer amount of knowledge Amy has about the topics and having seen her work, I will definitely be booking in for lip tint in the coming months!
The secret escape is a beautiful studio and would recommend Amy one million times over.
"Nothing short of
absolute perfection"
MISHA
The Secret escape is the most beautiful, relaxing and delightful beauty salon I have ever been to. The new premises in Maldon is a true sanctuary with the most beautiful aesthetic. Amy is not only a highly skilled professional beauty therapist but also so lovely and friendly which makes all the difference. She makes everyone who walks through her doors feel relaxed and calm. It’s the most wonderful experience and I always leave feeling refreshed, recharged and feeling glam
