From jewellery professionals to healthcare, Canberra is home to a wide range of beauty experts who can help make clients look and feel their very best. 

Bespoke jewellery crafted to your heart’s desire

At Venetia Major – Bespoke Jewellery in Hall, every piece is designed to tell a story. 

Owner and master jeweller Venetia Major specialises in creating jewellery that reflects her clients’ styles and sentiments.

From the first sketch to the final polish, each design is crafted with care and meaning. 

“Whether it’s breathing new life into a family heirloom, repairing a much-loved piece, or starting fresh with a new design, we create jewellery that is truly individual,” Venetia says.

Clients are encouraged to bring in anything – from old, broken jewellery to loose gemstones and odd bits tucked away in jewellery boxes. 

“No need to clean or sort beforehand,” Venetia says. 

“We’ll take care of it, and we even offer scrap credit for any precious metals not used in the final piece.”

While remodelling is a speciality, Venetia also creates bespoke engagement rings and one-of-a-kind designs, sourcing diamonds and gemstones or working with stones supplied by her clients.

“Our diamonds are of the highest quality and set with expert precision, designed to radiate brilliance for a lifetime,” she says. 

“Clients can choose their preferred metal, gemstones, and design details to create something truly personal and enduring.”

A trusted choice for non-invasive body sculpting

Family owned and locally operated, Total Body Contouring owner Christy Christensen says she is proud to be working with cutting-edge technology to help Canberrans feel like the best version of themselves. 

“We are Canberra’s trusted local choice for body contouring, offering expert care and results our clients love,” she says.

With years of collective experience within the organisation, Christy says they are constantly keeping up to date with new and revolutionary technology to create a pain-free experience. 

Currently offering a $300 fat freezing treatment using Cooltech technology, Christy says they can target up to 40 per cent of fat in the area within two to three months of use. 

“There’s no downtime required,” she says.

“It’s non-invasive and we provide free consultations prior to treatment.” 

Total Body Contouring is also the only Canberra organisation to have an emerald laser.

“The emerald laser is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared, fat-reduction treatment that uses low-level green laser technology to shrink fat cells without pain or downtime,” says Christy. 

“It is suitable for individuals with a BMI up to 40 and helps reduce body circumference safely and effectively,” says Christy. 

“With no bruising or swelling, it’s a gentle and convenient option for those seeking non-invasive body contouring.” 

Exclusive to Total Body Contouring, Christy says the technology benefits fat loss and enhances how clients feel about their body.
