01The Project

Not just another salon website.

A digital experience that reflects the artistry behind the brand.

In hair, creativity, presentation and attention to detail are everything. For a business built on personal style and transformation, the website does a lot of the work: it’s where clients first judge the quality of the experience they can expect.

We transformed The Base Hair Lab’s existing website into a more refined, cohesive presence, with clarity, consistency and thoughtful design from the homepage through to every service.

The result is a website that reflects the salon’s creative identity and gives it a stronger foundation online.

02The Approach

Design with intention.

As considered as the services behind it.

A beauty website has to make an immediate impression, reflect the personality of the brand and help clients feel confident booking. Instead of decoration, the redesign put typography, imagery, spacing and content first.

03The Challenge

A beautiful brand deserves a beautiful presence.

In hair and beauty, presentation is everything.

Before booking, clients look at a salon’s services and imagery and decide whether it matches their style. The Base Hair Lab already had a website, but it didn’t yet match the salon. The challenge was to communicate its professionalism and creativity while staying clear, approachable and easy to navigate.

07In Their Words

“Working with Ellie from Femme Creative has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish.

From our very first conversation, Ellie took the time to genuinely understand our business, how we operate, what sets us apart, and what was most important to us as a brand. Rather than creating just another website, she built something that feels completely unique, perfectly on-brand, and truly reflects who we are at The Base Hair Lab.

Nothing was ever too much trouble. Ellie was incredibly prompt with communication, proactive throughout the entire process, and an absolute dream to work with. Her attention to detail and commitment to getting everything just right exceeded every expectation we had.

We are beyond thrilled with the finished result and couldn’t recommend Femme Creative highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your business and delivers exceptional work, Ellie is the person to trust. We look forward to working with Femme Creative for many years to come.”
