Name

Tania Withers (Tania Palmer)

I am the founder of Lashings of Beauty and Training, The Beauty Training Group plus Freckle Lash, Brow & Beauty Supplies Ltd.

I started off with zero experience in the industry and started working on my own in my kitchen in 2011. In 2016 Lashings of Beauty and Training opened its doors and I have turned it in to the thriving salon that it is today.
​
With a fantastic supportive team beside me, the salon continues to go from strength to strength, boasting a fantastic reputation for both quality treatments and excellent service.

I am a self confessed 'Classic Lash Queen' and pride myself on creating the most flawless of Classic Lash Sets.
​
The Beauty Training Group in one of my other companies and it has been a huge success. I started teaching in 2014 and have trained a huge number of students across the UK in this time.

I am proud to have a small team of Educators delivering over 15 of accredited courses and workshops across Devon & Cornwall. I aim to bring students the most up to date knowledge, detailed training courses with sound and ongoing aftercare support. All of this is based on my personal experiences. Even though I am an educator myself, I still continually train in various ways to keep my knowledge and skills at a high level.
​
I am also proud to have my own Beauty Supplies Store! Freckle Lash, Brow & Beauty Supplies launched in 2019, it has gone from strength to strength. In August 2024, we opened Plymouth FIRST independent Lash & Brow Specialist shop, allowing therapists to shop in-store in Plymouth, as well as placing online orders across the UK. We choose quality over quantity and hand pick a variety of brands and products to work with, to give our customers the very best choice of excellent products, in one place.

I am regularly approached by Lash Artists, Salon Owners and general Beauty Business Owners who are looking for additional, confidential support in growing their businesses. I thoroughly enjoy Business Mentoring and I thrive on helping others reach their personal goals. Mentoring is available for both treatments and for business owners looking to expand, make changes or improvements to their business and its personally tailored to them.
​
I believe my overall warm, caring and approachable personality leaves both clients and students feeling appreciated which keeps them returning for more treatments and courses.
