Aline Ferreira runs a beauty clinic and training academy on the second floor of the Dawson Spa on South William Street, in the middle of Dublin’s creative quarter. Operating as an academy as well as a clinic tends to keep technique current, since staff have to be able to teach what they practise. South William Street is pedestrianised in part and walkable from Grafton Street, though it means public transport rather than parking.
