Janelle Pipe

Born and raised in Christchurch, Janelle’s fascination with skin began at just seven years old. What started as curiosity about the lotions on her mother’s dresser grew into a lifelong passion that ultimately shaped her career.

With over 14 years of experience, Janelle is nationally and internationally qualified with CIDESCO and ITEC. She has worked across award winning clinics, luxury day spas, and clinical skin therapy settings alongside medical doctors.

A finalist in the New Zealand Beauty Therapy Awards, she is known for combining advanced skin knowledge with honest advice, personalised care, and treatments that are both results focused and deeply relaxing.

Outside the skin studio, Janelle can usually be found running long distances, exploring the mountains, or buried in a book on skin anatomy. She shares her home with a much loved fur ball named Alfie.

The Studio

Janelle Pipe, Christchurch skin therapist with over 14 years of experience in the industry.

Tucked away in Janelle’s peaceful Mount Pleasant garden, the skin studio is a quiet retreat from the pace of the city. Inside, clinical knowledge and expertise are experienced in a setting that is warm, private and unhurried.
