Georgina Demmery

Proprietor/ Beauty Therapist

I am the proprietor of YOU at Georgies, and a mother of 5 beautiful children.

 I grew up in a small country town named Bourke in outback NSW where I lived with my mum, dad, sister and brother. We had a very traditional country upbringing, spending most of our time out on the farm yabbying, pigging, mustering sheep and sometimes goats and riding motorbikes. I was, as I look back, a real tomboy! This is something my friends still laugh about with me now that I am a part of the beauty industry. 

In 2003 I moved to Perth WA, It was Perth where I decided to study Beauty Therapy. I attended college full-time where I completed my Diploma in Beauty Therapy, Certificate 2 in Nail Technology and Certificate 2 in Make-up Artistry, I also completed my ITEC exam, recognising me with a high level of international qualification in the industry. After completion of my studies I was offered a scholarship to work in the college salon for six months, after which I was given the position of managing the salon, overseeing the students from the college who visited for work experience. I was also able to participate in extra studies and countless product knowledge seminars.

In 2006 I moved to Goondiwindi. I settled into the town and started working out of a room in a local hairdressing salon. I started to form a dream of opening my own salon and by 30th July 2007 the doors to YOU at Georgie’s opened. Since then my salon and my dream have not stopped growing and developing along with the passion I have for what I do.

 

Josie Austin

Beauty Therapist

I am the newest therapist to join the You at Georgies team, after completing my Diploma of Beauty Therapy at Demi International Beauty Academy in Toowoomba. I love working in the salon, applying my knowledge and skills learnt throughout my studies and furthering my knowledge about advanced skin therapies, the Dermalogica skincare range and all the treatments on offer here at ‘You at Georgies’. It is my passion to educate everyone about how to have their healthiest and best looking skin! I am excited to see where my career in the beauty industry will take me and am so pleased to be apart of such an amazing salon here in Goondiwindi.

It is special to be working so closely with the community that I grew up in for so many years but always seeing new faces as the town continues to grow! As well as any clientele travelling through, its nice to catch up with them too. I hope to see you in salon really soon!
