About Us

Michelle Duthie
Michelle has worked within the beauty industry for 20 years, and completed a Diploma of Beauty Therapy in Brisbane in 1991. On completion moved back to Western Australia and set up a small beauty business within the local hair salon. A couple of years later along with her sister Lyn,  purchased the hair salon and began a new business combining hair and beauty....Short Cutz Hair and Beauty Studio, servicing local and tourist clientele.

As the needs of local and tourist women changed the salon was sold and Serenity Day Spa was then established in Kalbarri. A combination of  spa and beauty treatments was offered to clients for that much needed pampering and relaxation.
