AFTER moving to town to be close to family earlier in the year, Jena White knew she would be bringing her beauty business to St Arnaud.

Between the gap in the market and needing somewhere to get treatments herself, she knew it was the right move.

“I’d also been off the tools for a long time, I missed it,” Mrs White said.

“I loved the people and the community, it was just something I knew I had to do.”

That dream to bring beauty to town came true when she opened Bodii Kollective at 114 Napier Street last week.

Mrs White said the store would specialise in pain-free, non-invasive body sculpting treatments with instant results, advanced skin treatments for anti-ageing and acne, and beauty services such as brows, lashes, and nails to complete your self-care journey.

“Every treatment is designed to help you love the skin you’re in, boost your body confidence, and embrace self-love,” she said.

Mrs White said the main challenge she has faced is changing the idea around body sculpting and letting everyone know it’s a great option for a lot of people in different situations.

“There’s such a misconception,” she said. “We know diet and exercise goes a long way, but some people stuggle with their weight and skin post-partum or after surgery.

“It’s not a taboo subject.”

Mrs White hopes to bring her educational sessions and master classes about body sculpting to town in order to help change the thoughts around the treatment.

“I love being able to explain and educate, I want to bring that knowledge to St Arnaud,” she said. “I look forward to it.”
