Hi, I’m Kelly McVie – the founder of PerfectTEN, based on the High Street in Dalbeattie.
HNC Beauty Therapist with over 11 years in the Beauty Industry.
I’ve built PerfectTEN as a welcoming space where luxury meets personalised care. I specialise in bespoke lash extensions*, tailored specifically to complement each client’s eye shape and facial features. From lashes to nails, brows, tinting and waxing - every treatment is delivered with precision, passion, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
I was honoured to be placed in the UK’s Top 50 for Best Lash Extensions Salon in 2024 by the UK Hair & Beauty Awards – a reflection of my dedication to continuous learning, professional excellence, and outstanding client results.
At PerfectTEN, you’re not just booking a treatment – you’re investing in you. I want every client to feel relaxed, empowered, and confident the moment they walk in the door. I use only the highest-quality products, and I never stop learning, evolving, and striving to be the best at what I do.
As a busy mum of two, and a proud advocate for ADHD and neurodiversity, I understand the importance of creating a safe, inclusive, and uplifting environment. Helping others feel seen, valued, and beautiful is at the heart of my mission – because everyone deserves to feel like the best version of themselves.
Welcome to PerfectTEN – where confidence is custom made.
*Please note that I am currently not taking on new Clients for Lash Extensions. Any new clients who book for this will have the booking request rejected - However, can be added to the Waitlist if requested.
I started my journey in Beauty Therapy back in 2003 where I completed NC Beauty Care. I then went on to study Beauty Care Level 6 after a few years away from the industry, then went on to graduate in HNC Beauty Therapy in 2014. Since then I have done many private courses to improve and master my skills, especially in Lash Extensions and Nails. I have travelled up and down the UK completing numerous beauty courses. I was also awarded Top 50 in the UK for Best Lash Extensions Salon 2024 from the Hair & Beauty Awards. - Something I am very proud of, especially considering the amount of entrants and unbelievable talent of those who entered.
I am very passionate about always educating myself to improve my knowledge and customer results.
PerfectTEN was Established in 2014 and since then I have built a huge amount of loyal clients who return regularly. I appreciate every single one of them and absolutely love getting to know each client.
Some people may remember when I first started PerfectTEN offering fully mobile services - I had a lovely big Van with the old signs/logo. It helped me build clients but my dream was always to have premises.
I went on to rent space in Beauty Spot on St Michael’s Street, then on to The Foot Health Clinic on Galloway Street (both Dumfries). I remained at The Foot Health Clinic for many years before moving home to Dalbeattie, where after a year I made the decision to move the business too. Thankfully, most of my amazing, loyal clients have stayed with me and I have also gained some lovely new ones too!
I will continue educating myself and keeping up to date within the industry to always ensure the best results and client trust.
Please be aware I am NOT currently taking on any new Lash Clients. Any booking requests from new Lash Clients will be declined. Anyone wishing to join the waitlist for Lashes, can email or DM with a contact number and email, and should anything become available I can contact you. Please make sure to fill out any consultation forms sent to you after booking a service or your appointment may be cancelled and you may be charged accordingly. Consultation forms are important! They are a requirement for my insurance and your safety. Thank you.
Salon Number - 01556 809395 (Please bear in mind I do not have a receptionist and can’t always get to the phone.) If you don’t get an answer, please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
The fastest way to contact is through Facebook or Instagram direct message. - If you have a specific booking request please make sure to leave your contact details, date/times you wish you request and the service you are looking to book. This saves so much time back and forth especially when I give a time slot and don’t get a reply for over 24 hours. I can only hold appointments for 3 hours then they will be open again for anyone to book online so if messaging, please make sure to give as much detail as possible and your availability.
Cash is the preffered method of payment as this means I retain 100% of the value - I do also take Credit/Debit Cards or Bank Transfer.
If paying by Bank Transfer, payment MUST be made before leaving the Salon. I have wifi available if anyone needs this so please make sure you have your banking app set up and working properly.
I usually work back to back with clients so bank transfer can be time consuming - I recommended paying before your treatment starts.

Brown lashes are the latest in lash artistry and are amazing for those wanting a softer look.
They have a much softer effect and work well on lighter skin tones. They are a great choice for more mature clients, or first time lash clients as they aren’t as contrasting/dramatic as the classic black extensions but still look absolutely gorgeous!
Patch test MUST be carried out on ALL new clients or clients who have not had tint in the last 6 months.
Please make sure this is booked at least 24-48 hours prior to tint appointment.
If you fail to have a patch test booked and carried out and don’t give the required notice as per cancellation policy, you will lose your deposit and still be charged.

CE Certified. UV lash glue is totally the same as other lashes, it’s just a different way to cure the glue. So the outcome is still the same but retention may be improved so they can last longer than other glues.
You can also get them wet STRAIGHT after your appointment so if you want to go to the gym, sauna, steam room, hot bath, shower or sunbed… it’s totally fine and won’t affect your lashes at all because the glue is instantly cured using the LED light.
The light emits 6x LESS than a standard nail lamp and you would get more UV rays from your phone screen so it is completely safe!!

IMPORTANTThis is only for current lash clients whose lashes have been done by myself.
I do not remove lashes that have been done with another tech due to not knowing what adhesive/products were used and also to protect myself should these not have been done properly and may be damaged. If you have had lashes done from another lash tech, please get them removed from them. Anyone booking this that is not a current client of mine, your appointment will be cancelled without notice and you will lose your deposit.
Safe and Gentle removal of semi-permanent lash extensions. Lashes left conditioned and healthy. Lash shampoo is done following removal and lash serum for added nourishment.
This set is for people who love something a little different. Application is done in layers with different lengths/curls/spikes to create a tailored almost strip lash style.
It takes more time and skill and really does have the WOW factor result.
We map out the style to suit your face shape/eye shape etc.
Please be aware this set takes more time than a standard Russian set that’s more uniformed.
This is only for clients who can lay for long periods. If you can’t lie flat or lie still for this time, please do not book.
Please no coffee before. You can bring some EarPods and listen to your fave podcast/playlist and just relax and unwind while I work my magic ✨

Please ensure if you are a new client, or haven’t been for over 6 months that you book the relevant allergy tests separately and at least 24-48 hours before treatment.
CLIENTS PLEASE READ -
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU BOOK THIS BEFORE YOUR LASH APPOINTMENT (at least 24hrs prior) IF YOU ARE A NEW CLIENT OR HAVE NOT BEEN FOR OVER 6 MONTHS. IF NOT BOOKED, YOUR APPOINTMENT WILL BE CANCELLED WITHOUT NOTICE!
I USE VERY HIGH GRADE GLUE AND PRIDE MYSELF IN LOOKING AFTER CLIENTS SAFETY. I WILL NOT APPLY LASHES TO ANY CLIENT WHO HAS NOT HAD AN ALLERGY TEST. THIS IS ALSO FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES.
This app is also includes a consultation if you wish to discuss different styles and ask any questions about lashes, maintenance etc. It allows me to also assess your natural lash health to determine what style would be best suited to you.
To Allergy test, we apply 5-10 short lashes to your natural lashes.
This glue should NEVER be applied to the skin. When doing lashes, they are applied to your natural lash and not your skin so there is no need for this. This could cause irritation and may even cause allergy.
