A BEAUTY therapist who survived skin cancer is hitting the road with her mobile salon business.

Lyndsey Robinson, from Darlington, offers a range of beauty services in people's homes, including spray tanning, body massages, facials, manicures and pedicures, nail and eyelash extensions.

The mother-of-two had previously put her career on hold after having two boys Evan, seven, and Hayden, five.

Mrs Robinson said she was particularly keen to encourage people to use spray tanning as an alternative to sun beds, given her own experience.

She said: "The best, safest way is to spray tan and for young girls and other people to avoid using sun beds."

The 32-year-old, who has been hired to help with a number of weddings recently, is able to visit people's homes on appointment and also has a room at Stones Hairdressers, in Coniscliffe Road.
