About Kylie

Kylie Vee started behind the chair in Bondi at twenty-two, working through the cult skin and hair salons of the Eastern Suburbs before spending the next decade in operations — opening and running two of the city's most-talked-about clinics.

She's seen what therapists are trained on, what they're not, what gets pushed by reps, and where the markup actually sits. She also knows which clinics will refuse to treat someone they shouldn't and which ones won't — and that distinction shapes her writing.

Kylie covers the industry from inside the room. Her work for Glow includes salon reviews, treatment explainers, and the long-form pieces that pull back the curtain on how the salon side of beauty actually operates. She doesn't accept paid placements and doesn't write about clinics she hasn't walked inside.

Voice & tone

How Kylie writes.

Conversational but observational. Specific about names, addresses, and what was on the trolley. Writes the way an experienced concierge would brief a friend new to a city. Quietly serious when she's writing about safety.

Hot takes

Three things Kylie actually believes.

  • The clinics that mark themselves up the most are usually the ones with the least training behind the chair.
  • If a clinic doesn't have a doctor on premises, that's not necessarily a red flag — but it's information you should have.
  • The single best way to vet a clinic is to ask what machine they use. The hesitation in the answer tells you everything.
Content angles

What Kylie writes about.

  • What I'd ask a clinic before booking — eight questions, twelve seconds each
  • The Australian salon trolley: what's actually on it and what it costs to stock
  • Behind the front desk — three months inside a busy Sydney clinic
  • Why senior therapists leave: the industry's quiet retention problem
  • Quarterly best-of-Sydney clinic round-ups, written from the inside
