"Like a rose", beauty is multiplied when you open the petals and show the world who you really are...each petal may be flawed and not quite perfect, but collectivelly they create even greater beauty.
It is the flaws that make each one of us perfectly beautiful and unique.
My Story
BERNARDA (Bernie) ISLIC, owner of “The Quiet Corner”, is a professional Hairstylist, Colour Technician Certified Meditation Facilitator and RTT therapist. Her care and enthusiasm for her work and love for beauty and life itself has won her a clientele of over 35 years.
"My story began with a beautiful little doll named Angelina. Spending many hours playing with her hair, I developed a passion for hairstyling from a very young age and on."
In 1993, she began a career in the Beauty Industry. Working for some of the finest salons for almost 20 years and talking with clients, she realized there was a need for a different kind of studio, where a haircut was not just a haircut anymore. She was finally able to give her clients a quiet escape from the busy world, a place in which they can relax and unwind which is where "The Quiet Corner" was born.
"After a few years of having my own salon, there was still a longing to establish a deeper meaning to Beauty. In 2016 I started practicing Meditation, offering group and private sessions, as well as classes on Wellness incorporating Essential Oils and other Natural Products."
Her curiosity and fascination with the human mind pushed her even further and in 2022 she became a certified RTT therapist, which helped her understand her clients better and help them on their journey of self discovery, wholeness and beauty.
"I am proud to say that through life's many twists, The Quiet Corner has become a home to a loyal clientele of many years. I look forward to continuing our journey together and am excited to grow my 'BEAUTY - FULL' family."
