Denise Lebar working with Gorgeous Star PR


We are a company that is truly passionate about working with businesses that we love and really believe in. We were thrilled when we discovered Denise Lebar, a specialist hair loss boutique in London!The team offers an amazing service helping women suffering with any form of hair loss. Their hair loss solutions are so advanced, I was truly amazed at how realistic the hair systems are, and how far removed the technology is from the typical image of a 'wig' you would conjure up in your mind when you think about what is on offer for hair loss. The boutique has been beautifully and thoughtfully designed to offer a luxurious environment for every client to enjoy, with private rooms on offer if required. Hair thinning and damage caused by extensions is becoming an increasing problem for women, but Denise Lebar can offer a much safer and less damaging alternative. Denise Lebar also offers an extensive range of beauty treatments, for the ultimate in pampering, skin, body care and anti-ageing.

Denise Lebar is a newly opened London Hair and Beauty boutique created to provide safe and innovative solutions for women and children suffering with any form of thinning or hair loss. Denise Lebar also caters for ladies with Afro-Caribbean hair types. This expert hair and beauty boutique is the only one of its kind that is both a leader of hair loss solutions combined with an extensive range of beauty treatments all under one roof.

When women are making the choice to undergo any cosmetic process, whether hair or beauty, Denise Lebar believes in giving the most up to date, informed advice and help selecting the safest options available on the market.
Denise Lebar, the namesake founder of the business, was diagnosed with Alopecia several years ago. The solution that was offered to her at that time resulted in her losing even more hair. This prompted Denise to search for a safer cosmetic alternative that would enable her to increase volume and length without damaging her own hair or causing further hair loss.

Two years on, Denise has been delighted with her discovery of the highest quality, natural and glamorous hair solutions which are attached using the safest methods available, producing exceptional results. It became Denise’s passion to share her beauty secret with every woman who is experiencing Alopecia, hair thinning, hair loss or those who simply wish to add volume and sensuality to their hair in a luxurious environment, with discreet, elegant, individual treatment rooms.



An exciting list of advanced beauty, cosmetic and medical treatments available at the Denise Lebar Hair Boutique include Aesthetics, Botox and Fillers, which are carried out by Denise’s experienced Aesthetic Practitioners. Denise Lebar’s skilled creative technicians offer semi-permanent make up and eyelash extensions. If you are looking to improve your health and beauty from the inside out Nutritional therapy is also available.

A certified Trichologist holds private consultations with any clients with hair loss concerns looking to give an in-depth analysis of hair and scalp conditions, in an environment which is very understanding, caring but also glamorous. Denise Lebar feels strongly that women with such conditions shouldn’t have to be treated in a cold and often depressing clinical setting.

Denise Lebar have looked after a number of celebrities, including X-Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos, TOWIE star Jessica Wright as well as actress and writer Carol Harrison. The team have recently been featured as experts on the TV shows, 'My Transgender Summer' for channel 4 and 'Bigger Than Beyonce' for Sky Living.

Denise quotes: “Denise Lebar Hair Boutique is a business run by women for women. We truly want to share our passion and expertise with anyone suffering with any form of hair loss, thinning or damage caused by extensions.  In addition to our hair loss expertise, our enviable range of spa and beauty treatments are to be enjoyed by any woman who wants to look and feel good whilst achieving the very best results for their skin.”

Caroline's Campaign Valentines Make-Over for Cancer Sufferers

After being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004, cancer campaigner, Caroline Monk knows all too well how devastating the effects of losing your hair, eye brows and eye lashes can feel for women. 


Caroline Comments ‘It was a dreadful experience, the chemotherapy left me looking like a bald alien, and feeling very unfeminine and depressed." So in 2007 Caroline, recently awarded, London Personality of the year, set about helping other cancer sufferers by organising free pampering days, worth over £1,000. Since launching the campaign, Caroline’s helped dozens of women in Manchester, London, Essex, Birmingham, Liverpool and Leeds and is now busy organising her latest event to be held on 6th February 2012 in London, to provide a Valentine’s Day themed make-over experience to some more very deserving women.
This year the make-over event is being held at Denise Lebar, a specialist London hair loss boutique, and together with Caroline’s team of volunteers will give dramatic new looks to more ladies, whose lives and confidence had been shattered by cancer.
The side-effects of life-saving cancer treatments such as chemotherapy – can have a devastating effect on the physical appearance. As well as nausea and fatigue, the side-effects of chemotherapy include hair loss, skin and nail problems, weight loss and weight gain.  These symptoms serve as a constant reminder of the disease and can make coping with the illness very difficult, especially for women. This special charity event will see the women pampered with manicures, make-up sessions and even tattooed eyebrows by top make-up artists as well as hair make-overs from Denise Lebar’s expert team.

Caroline adds,
“Losing your hair is about so much more than personal vanity – it is how other people perceive and treat you”, When I was ill, there were days I felt so low because I looked so hideous and I would have jumped at the chance of being given a makeover. I wish back then I had access to the team of experts that I am now working with. The permanent make-up and Denise Lebar’s hair replacements systems look so natural they really can transform women back to how they looked before they had undergone any cancer treatment. All the team we work with our giving up their time for free to help these deserving women. Hayley Sparkes from Gorgeous Star PR, has joined the team this year, to help bring the event together with the help of some of her generous clients.”

The women taking part in Caroline’s Campaigns up and coming event have all  been nominated by relatives and friends as deserving of the treatment as they fight their own personal battle with cancer. Following the make-over treatments at Denise Lebar Boutique, the women will be taken over to the top London Hotel, Rydges in Kensignton, to join their families and showcase their new look. Celebrity guests and supporters of Caroline’s campaign will also join in the celebrations to really help make the day extra special for the women taking part.

Caroline Summarises, “Helping people with cancer is not just about finding cures and funding research, it is about caring for the people who go through it. Chemotherapy can take away all that feels feminine, but if you look ill you will feel ill, if you look fabulous you will feel fabulous, and that is exactly how we will make these women and their families feel at the end of this special valentine’s day treat.’

Bigger Than.....

Looking like a famous pop star can lead to a surprisingly lucrative career. There are a number of 'lookalike' agencies where you can book your favourite copy cat starlet to party at events, open supermarkets, or take part in photo-shoots! Some lookalikes even work as body doubles in films and music videos or act as decoys when the real celebs need to avoid screaming fans or the paps.

Sky Living's new TV show 'Bigger than,' takes ordinary women in the hope of transforming them into their favourite celebrity. So far in the series we have seen women competing to win contracts to work as lookalike for Beyonce, Britney and Lady Ga Ga.

Gorgeous Star PR was delighted to work with the producers of the series to help recommend some of our expert spa and beauty clients to help the contestants transform into their favourite superstars!

The amazing team at FOUR London transformed the hair of the Britney lookalikes, and with special expertise in Afro-Caribbean hair, the team at Denise Lebar worked their magic on the wannabee Beyonces.

Director of Spa Barbies, Samantha Cunningham, and international make-up artist Natasha Lawes were also on hand to transform the contestants into mega-stars with their beauty and make-up talents.

Don't miss the next show on weds 25th Jan at 9pm!
