She posted a heartfelt video on her social media.
Georgia said: " Guys! Thank you so much!
"Unfortunately, the building is now about to be demolished, my heart is broken.
"I was to first of all say how sorry I am to anyone who has lost even a single item in that fire.
"I can’t imagine how those who have things that can’t be replaced feel.
"I’m so sorry.
"I posted my last reel as an appeal to help us all get back to work as soon as possible, without us working we can’t buy stock, without stock we can’t work.
"It’s the hardest situation for so many of us to be in.
"With our whole place of work and tools gone and families to feed and bills to pay.
"I aimed to raise £10k.... here we are passing 10k!
"There are 12 of us affected by this who work in the beauty industry and every penny will be evenly distributed to help us get back where we were.
"Thank you for everything that has been donated too!
"Please, please please keep donating. We have all lost thousands each and this will help us so much.
"If you have another business that has been affected from this fire and you want me to help you with your fundraisers please get in touch."
