  • Hi, I’m Angelique!

    I’m the owner of Rockabella and I’m also training to become an all-rounder in beauty. I’m certified in nails and beauty services, with the intention of finishing my Diploma of Beauty.

    My absolute favourite is nail art. While a lot of people love doing simple shapes or French tips, my style leans more towards creating tiny paintings on your nails. It’s definitely a “trust the process” kind of art. Sometimes it looks messy in the beginning and I feel like giving up, but when I add the shadows and highlights, the design suddenly comes to life. Those moments remind me why I love it so much: it teaches me patience, resilience, creativity, and that the bigger picture is always worth it.

    Outside of the salon, I’m a Marvel geek with a soft spot for Wolverine (my favourite). I even joke that I’m manifesting my dream guy: Logan Darling! 'Logan' because that’s Wolverine’s name, and 'Darling' because “Angelique Darling” just has the cutest ring to it. Along with my Marvel collection, I love building my home library and Lego City. I also care for 3 cats and 6 birds who bring me peace and all the love I can ask for.

    My go to affirmation is: You're a lot stronger than you think you are, so you should give yourself more credit.

  • Hiya! I’m Ethel. I’ve been at Rockabella for about 7 years now and have been doing pedicures and nails.

    I love doing a deluxe pedicure for my clients as it’s a chance for them to relax and wind down from the stresses of life. It’s a time when you can shut off in silence while I tend to your feet, or we can talk through the whole service.

    I love talking and getting to know clients about their life stories. Most of the time, if I’m not working, I’m either studying, reading, or doing something creative whilst still being relaxing.

  • My name is Holly. I have been doing nails since I was 15 years old and in high school. I then went on to study beauty therapy at college for 2 years.

    I have been a fully qualified beauty therapist with a diploma in beauty since I was 18 and have worked in salons since I was 16. My favourite service is anything nails and eyebrows!

    In my spare time, I enjoy cooking and going on scenic walks and hikes.

  • Hi, I’m Shika! I discovered my passion for nails at 15, teaching myself and experimenting on my own. Later, I studied it professionally, and now, with over 10 years of experience, it has become a career I truly love.

    For the past four years, I’ve been part of Rockabella, and I adore the clients and the warm, welcoming space we share.

    I’m an old soul who loves gardening, animals, and talking about food and the little things in life.

    For me, nails and pedicures are more than just beauty; they’re about connection, listening to stories, and making people feel cared for and confident.

    I like to give my best to every service I do because making people feel cared for and confident is what drives me.

  • Hi, I am Melika. I've been a nail technician for over 23 years, and what I love most about the job is the creativity I get to unleash and the smiles on clients' faces when they see the finished look.

    Nail art is something I enjoy experimenting with, whether it is at work or at home, just for fun (I'm currently sculpting a Vegemite on toast set for fun!).

    And lucky for me, my husband is a wedding photographer, so he'd be dragged into shooting my nail art at home for me when I experiment with new styles.

    I'm originally from Iran, spent 9 years in Turkey, and now I'm based in Perth. I speak Persian and Turkish fluently. English is my third language, and I'm learning every day.

    I am grateful for my clients who are patient with me while I use a translation app every now and then to ensure I understand your vision.

    (ps: ask me to show you pictures of my cats.)

  • Hi im Sandalee! I’ve been in the beauty industry for over 10 years and truly enjoy helping clients look and feel their best.

    I specialise in brow and lash services, and they’re my favourite to do. I love how even small changes can make a big difference.

    Outside of work, I enjoy painting and any other creative pursuits, which align nicely with my attention to detail.

    I aim to create a welcoming and relaxed space where clients feel at ease and leave feeling confident.

  • Hey, I’m Tanika! I’ve been hanging around here for 3 years now! I started out answering phones on a school work placement, and somehow charmed my way into doing what I love as a beautician. 

    Proudly Italian, hopelessly hooked on house and indie music, and a total social soul, you’ll usually find me at my happiest with a wine in hand and good company close by.

    I don’t have a dog (yet), but I’ll stop to pat every single one I meet. I live for travel, romanticising the everyday, and am fully convinced I’ll end up living my dream life in Margaret River, surfboard in hand, despite only surviving one lesson so far.

    I’m all about helping people feel their best, whether it’s through a treatment, a real conversation, or just good vibes from start to finish.

    Brow waxes are my go-to (there’s nothing like a fresh set of brows!), and I always aim to make every client feel like they’ve just spent time with a friend, not just a beautician.

  • Hey! My name is Bia (short for Beatriz), and as long as you can tell me what you want on your nails, you’ll get what you came for!

    I love a good chat, rant, story, or deep conversation with my clients, and even if you don’t know what you want at the start, I’m more than happy to help you figure it out.

    I’ve been doing nails for about 3 years now and have found true passion in the industry. My favourite service is probably nail art, but I honestly love anything that leaves my client feeling more confident at the end of the appointment!

    Aside from nails, I am Brazilian-born (yes, I speak Portuguese), with a Canadian accent because I learnt English in Canada, but I have been in Australia for most of my life! I am a massive nerd when it comes to maths and science. I learnt French in high school and am always happy for my French-speaking clients to test me a bit so I don’t lose the language.

    Come introduce yourself to me, I am sure to get very invested in who you are!
