ursula schafer

Ursula trained at the legendary Mary Reid School of Beauty in Edinburgh and graduated in 1982.  She then honed her passion for skincare, people and wellbeing, working in Aberdeen, London and Glasgow, before she was introduced to French skin care company, Guinot, who have over 50 years experience in avant-garde skincare methods. 

From there, Ursula opened her eponymous salon in Dundee’s West End and combined her unique approach with Guinot products to offer an unrivalled experience for her many clients.

Guinot are pioneering in anti-ageing research, and formulates and manufactures all its treatments in compliance with pharmaceutical standards of precision and rigor. Ursula felt an immediate affinity with their ethos and after many years of achieving Guinot Crown Salon Status, acknowledging the highest standards of excellence within Guinot, she was invited to visit the Guinot laboratories and headquarters in Paris – an experience she will never forget.

Ursula has always been attuned to the needs of the skin and she thrives on sharing her passion with her loyal following, along with the wide range of skills and expert knowledge she has gained from working with Guinot.

She is committed to delivering the best prescriptive treatments and she has designed various skin enhancing methods that combine personal assessment and tailored solutions for each individual client. Ursula absolutely believes that everyone deserves a glowing healthy complexion. 

Ursula has a truly comprehensive list of acclaimed treatments at her fingertips. But her forte lies in the ability to combine or modify those treatments for maximum benefit. From a holistic hands on massage with complete dexterity to merging electro-therapy lifting treatments with the super product range offered by Guinot or oxygenating a tired dull complexion with a phenomenal boost of oxygen, and many more.

As a client, your experience with Ursula will be designed especially for you. It will include helping you to attain maximum benefit from the Guinot salon-purchased home care products, which prolong the effectiveness of any personalised salon-based program set for you.
