Build · Beauty Salon

Life-changing results. An hour, looked after.

The beauty salon: lashes, brows, PMU, nails, facials, massage and aesthetics. Five treatment cabins, one reception and one standard. The person in the chair comes first.

Primero, la silla · The chair first

The person in the chair.

Software can wait. The lashes can’t.

On London building sites, Valentas Bartkevicius learned the oldest rule in building: nobody admires the drawing. They walk on the floor. A beauty salon runs on the same rule, with better lighting.

So the salon came first. A room with a standard: the person in the chair, the hour that was promised, the return visit. The tools stay quiet. The visit should feel looked after.

It is the first of the small things under Build, and the one the others have to answer to. If something doesn’t make an ordinary day in the salon easier, it waits.

Primero, la silla. Un salón con un estándar: la persona en la silla, la hora prometida y la próxima visita. Las herramientas, en silencio.

What it is · Qué es

Seven things. Done properly.

The treatments the salon is set up for, as written on its own sign. No menu of prices here, and no “signature experience”. Just the work, and the hour it takes.

The space · El espacio

Five cabins. One corridor. No maze.

Local B, drawn the way a builder reads a room: where you come in, where you wait, where the work happens and where the coffee probably goes.

Floor plan of the beauty salon, Local B: reception and waiting area at the entrance, a 1.30 m corridor with five treatment cabins either side, toilet at the back and stairs up to the office.

The toilet is at the back. The office is up five steps, which is about as much corporate ladder as the salon intends to have.

Reglas del salón · House rules

The visit is the product.

  1. The person in the chair.

    Not the booking, not the till, not the photo for later. The person sitting down right now.

  2. The hour that was promised.

    If the hour was agreed, it’s kept. Running late is a habit, not a weather event.

  3. The return visit.

    The small notes that make the second visit better than the first.

  4. Tools stay quiet.

    Software waits for the standard, not the other way round. Floor first.

Nobody has ever booked their brows because of a pitch deck.Nadie ha reservado unas cejas por una presentación.

Lo que no decimos · Honest limits

A salon, not a shop window.
