Beauty Parlour & Hair Salon for men and women.

Buzz the intercom on a modern glass door in a quiet back street and step into the fantastical world of Esstudio Galleria.

Based conveniently in Sydney’s inner-city artistic hub of Chippendale, the Esstudio experience is unique, boutique and plenty of fun. Wave hello to resident canine Oxy, who lords it over the salon from atop his own personal wing chair, before sitting down under a vast and glittering antique chandelier for your in-depth consultation with Aleks – whose expertise comes with a side of his trademark energy and enthusiasm. A massage chair will make your shampoo a meltingly blissful experience, and you can then take your place in a comfy old barber’s chair for a cut that’s personally tailored to your needs and desires. The salon’s relaxed, convivial atmosphere means you might just – if you’re lucky – be offered a glass of wine to help the process along.

Best of all, Esstudio is far more than a hair salon. Beauty director Jax offers tiptop manis and pedis, along with fab makeup, facials, lash extensions, waxing, Ipl and more. And it’s not just your body getting an overhaul: Esstudio caters to the soul, too, with psychic readings and reiki treatments an ever-popular choice. Why not make a day of it and opt for a pamper package for the full glam-over effect?

Designed with all Aleks and Jax’s visual flair, Esstudio is a seriously creative space – be prepared to be amazed! With décor heavily influenced by the old world, it has French Renaissance and pirate-ship undertones. An inspiring, creative location, it’s open by appointment only for hair, beauty and wellbeing transformations.

The esstudio beauty department is run by Jax who has over 20 years of experience in making people beautiful! We try and use Australian made and organic products where possible. Come in and indulge in some pampering.

Gernetic International – applied cellular biology

Gernetic was initially created for the hospital Foch in Paris to treat 3rd degree burns.
Two creams were prepared for such a task. The Synchro and Cytobi. These two creams helped the skins repairing mechanisms. Boosted the skin’s natural defense system and help to calm the skin and lower the pain. The skin is instantly relieved, calmed and the healing process was at least 3 times faster leaving very little scarring. Gernetic  distinguish themselves by the motto: “Gernétic makes love, not war to your skin”. This fundamental approach is one of the pillars of what makes Gernétic not a good product but a Great Product.  Gernétic empowers the skin and body’s own mechanisms to function at their optimum capability.

It is a radically different and powerfully active alternative to getting results without using aggressive options, which often provide short-term solutions but with the ramification of a poorer skin or body condition in the future. Gernétic’s gentle approach is geared to give a result that last, results that protect and enhance the skin and body functions to raise them to new heights of health and beauty.

Imagine discovering a range of skin care products that work at a cellular level, enabling your skin to regenerate and heal itself. For all types of skin… especially Anti aging treatments. .

Reiki and Crystal Healings

Reiki and Spiritual Healing are forms of Energetic Healing dating back through history. It is generally accepted that everything (including ourselves), is ‘energy.’ In-fact, every living thing has an energy field surrounding it. Some refer to this field as an “aura”. So much in our lives is “unseen”, eg our thoughts. Energy healing is carried out by seeking the transference of the Universe’s positive energy. We benefit by re balancing our emotional and physical selves and as a result experience a calm and relaxed feeling.

Animal Communication/Healing

30 mins – $45, 45 mins – $70, 60 mins – $90

Bach and Flower Remedies

Philosophy of Bach: Bach thought of illness as the result of a conflict between the purposes of the soul and the personality’s actions and outlook. This internal war, according to Bach, leads to negative moods and to “energy blocking”, thought to cause a lack of “harmony”, thus leading to physical diseases.

60 minute consultation – $90

This includes the time to prepare the remedies and a follow up talk for every remedy created as a result of the consultation.
