Beauty is more than skin deep

Tess Corcoran followed her dream to train in beauty and, after a spell at Champneys, is loving welcoming clients at White Sage in her home village of Princes Risborough

Home is where the heart is for Tess Corcoran who, at the tender age of 22, has a laser-like vision for the TLC her customers deserve.  

Tess, an alumna of Longwick School and Lord Bills, took on a hotel apprenticeship in London, then followed her passion in health and beauty, retraining with Champneys, before working at The Oxfordshire and Susannah Nicholas as a therapist, finally buying the salon from Sue. “It’s always been a dream to have my own salon and now I am living that dream!” says Tess. “It’s lovely to welcome clients for pampering in a calming atmosphere. We’re surrounded by the beautiful countryside. My lovely springer spaniel called Misty is 11 and full of life. We love going for walks through the Chiltern hills. My favourite local pet food brand is Tribal, based in Bledlow Ridge. 

“Another favourite local business is Godwins Bakery in Princes Risborough; fresh food served daily and wonderful staff! I also love Fullers Flowers for wonderful bouquets and displays. My favourite restaurant is Radhuni: the best Indian restaurant in Princes Risborough! They serve fantastic, high-quality food and have a great atmosphere with welcoming and friendly staff.”
