    Why Your Salon Marketing Isn’t Working Anymore

    Why Your Salon Marketing Isn’t Working Anymore Social media has changed, but many beauty businesses are still marketing themselves the same way they did years ago. In this episode of The Grace Edit, Terri and Nane sit down to talk about how Grace Beauty completely rethought its own approach to digital marketing, what they learned through trial and error, and how that journey eventually led to the creation of Noticed by Grace Beauty and The Noticed Method. They unpack some of the biggest challenges salon owners face with marketing, including not knowing what to post, feeling uncomfortable on camera, struggling to find the time, relying on generic content and trying to speak to everyone instead of the right audience. The conversation also covers content batching, brand voice, target audiences, content pillars, AI, authentic content, educational marketing and why consistency matters more than chasing viral posts. Nane explains how The Noticed Method is designed to help salons create a repeatable system, including planning a month of social media in around four hours and building a bank of content that can be reused over time. Terri and Nane also discuss why your social media should do more than sell. Education, trust and showing the real people behind the business can help clients understand what you do, why it matters and why they should choose you. If digital marketing has started to feel overwhelming, this episode is a reminder that you do not need to become a marketer. You need the right foundations, a clear message and a system you can actually maintain.

    Kids, Tweens & Skincare: Are We Educating Them Enough?

    Skincare is reaching children younger than ever, but is the answer to tell them to stay away from it completely - or to teach them how to make better choices? In this episode of The Grace Edit, Terri Grace sits down with Vanessa from Tremeadow Beaute to discuss the growing conversation around skincare for children and tweens. Vanessa shares the story behind her skincare education workshops for young people, what children are actually asking about their skin, and why she believes education needs to start before problematic skin, misinformation and unsuitable product choices become an issue. Terri and Vanessa discuss the influence of parents, beauty marketing and social media, the difference between age-appropriate skincare and unnecessary actives, puberty and changing skin, SPF, product ingredients, confidence and the important role professional skin therapists can play in guiding families. They also explore a bigger question for the professional beauty industry: rather than trying to stop young people from becoming interested in skincare, could education be the space we need to own?

    What If Your Clients Could Take You Home With Them?

    LED light therapy has become a major part of professional skin treatment, but understanding why it works goes far beyond simply seeing the skin glow under a light. In this episode of The Grace Edit, Terri Grace sits down with Sangita Devi, founder of Dermalyt and owner of Skinworks, to explore the science behind LED light therapy, photobiomodulation and the importance of wavelength when it comes to achieving meaningful results. Sangita explains why LED is not about heat, how specific wavelengths communicate with cells, and the role light therapy can play in supporting collagen, elastin and overall skin function. They also discuss the importance of wavelength consistency, how LED can complement rather than replace professional treatments, and what therapists should understand when recommending devices to their clients. The conversation also goes behind the scenes of Dermalyt, with Sangita sharing how the device grew from a genuine need within her own clinic and the lengthy process involved in refining its design and technical specifications before bringing it to market. Whether you are a salon owner, skin therapist or clinic director, this episode offers a deeper understanding of LED light therapy and the science behind one of the industry’s fastest-growing treatment categories. Grace Beauty is the exclusive NZ distributor for Dermalyt. Reach out to learn more about stocking it in your clinic.

    Why Your Gut Health Shows Up On Your Skin

    The gut, skin and brain are more connected than we often realise, and when one is under stress, the effects can show up somewhere else. In this episode of The Grace Edit, Nane sits down with Grace Beauty educator Rosie to explore the skin-gut-brain axis and why clearer, healthier skin often requires looking beyond topical products alone. Rosie breaks down the gut microbiome in simple terms, including the role of beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, why microbial diversity matters, and how dysbiosis, inflammation, leaky gut and histamine responses may influence skin concerns such as acne, rosacea, dermatitis and psoriasis. They also discuss the impact of stress on digestion, inflammation and the lymphatic system, why over-exfoliating can make compromised skin worse, and how everyday factors like sleep, hydration, movement and nervous system regulation can all play a role in skin health. The conversation also explores practical ways to support the body from the inside out, including prebiotic fibre, probiotics, electrolytes, gentle exfoliation, breathwork and lymphatic drainage. Whether you are a skin therapist wanting to have more informed client conversations, or someone trying to better understand recurring breakouts and inflammation, this episode looks at skin health as part of a much bigger whole-body picture.

    What Menopause Really Means for the Beauty Industry

    Menopause is one of the most significant transitions in a woman’s life, yet it is still widely misunderstood and too often reduced to a handful of symptoms. In this episode of The Grace Edit, Grace Beauty skin educators Terri and Rosie take a broader look at menopause and what it can mean for women physically, emotionally and socially. They explore the hormonal changes behind this stage of life, the wide range of symptoms women may experience, and how menopause can affect skin, relationships, confidence, mental wellbeing and overall health. The conversation also looks at the importance of movement, strength training and bone health, and why a more holistic approach to supporting women through menopause matters. Terri and Rosie also discuss the role beauty, skin and wellness professionals can play in creating better support for menopausal clients. With so many women moving through this life stage, understanding what may be happening beyond the skin can help professionals have more informed conversations and provide a more considered client experience. Whether you work in skin, beauty or wellness, or simply want to better understand menopause, this episode opens up a conversation that the industry needs to be having more often.
