The short answer

Kotara sits in the middle of Newcastle's south, and Bellus is the mobile hair and makeup service that comes to it. Amanda Frost sets up at your address with the whole kit, so the morning stays local and the schedule belongs to you rather than to a salon's diary. Kotara is inside the free travel zone, with trials held beforehand at the Cameron Park studio.
