This was my first appointment at Alternatives. The salon was small and basic but that doesn't bother me. The staff were incredibly lovely. The manicure itself was disappointing however as it was done quite messy with the shellac on my skin as well as nails. It also started all peeling off after only a week so wasn't worth the extra price compared to a normal manicure. It wasn't a horrible experience but I will have a look for another salon for next time.
Gel Nails Manicure
Good value for money. I was charged £33 rather than the advertised £27 because I received a different type of bikini wax. I didn't mind too much as this is still fairly cheap but I would have appreciated it being mentioned before I came to pay.
The venue is tiny and very cramped, the paper thin walls means you can hear all the conversations going on in the reception are which is a bit off putting and the door of the treatment room didn't completely close - which when you're having a bikini wax isn't ideal!
All in all though, the staff are really friendly and it is pretty cheap so I'll be back!
Ladies' Waxing
Don't get a massage here - it was awful
- room so small bed pushed up against wall - poor lady massaging couldn't do her job properly
- cd got caught
- owner rude
Therapeutic Massage
The staff were lovely and very friendly. The salon itself wasn't very nice but my manicure was great and I'm very pleased with the finished results. You get great value for what you pay.
Gel Nails Manicure
Eyelash extensions were terrible! Spidery and all flicked off. Not the individual lashes I anticipated but clumpy sets of 3 lashes glued in. Bit disappointed as I could have bough these from Boots and done them myself! I should have called and checked in advance exactly which lashes they would be but they said individual and said they would take 1 hour to apply so assumed they would be like previous experiences elsewhere. The appointment here only lasted 20 minutes not 1 hour - bad start, and the lashes starting flicking off by the time I got home. Relieved actually as they looked bad and had to take them all off by morning - waste of money!! NOT GOOD individual lash extensions. Waste of £20. Staff very nice though.
