I had a manicure and pedicure package. The pedicure was really thorough and the cosmetician undertook an extra effort to do it properly on my hardened foot skin. The manicure was OK. Unfortunately the nail polish didn´t last long which is probably due to its bad quality.
Great value for your money, got a Hollywood and leg wax for a great price, wasn't my favorite salon looks-wise but definitely very worth it if you're a student who needs to budget your spending
Great Salon and very nice staff, despite of the hair dresser that assisted me didn't speak much English, she tried the best to communicate with me, she even offered to give me her umbrella after my treatment so it wouldn't get mess up ( I have Brazilian Brow Dry Keratin Treatment) Excellent job, My hair is so smooth and silky. I awarded this salon with a 5 star overall. I am very happy with the results and I am planing to visit them again for a different treatment. Good place and nice people.
At first glance, I was a bit wary by the appearance of the salon. It is a very modest establishment run by an extremely nice lady, Rica. And it was really her presence that made me feel comfortable about getting the Keratin treatment. The sink where I had my hair washed was quite uncomfortable around the neck. I normally enjoy getting my hair shampooed and conditioned, but unfortunately due to the discomfort, I was waiting for it to finish ASAP. Rica and her colleague administered the Keratin in my hair together, however the rest of the procedure was carried out by her colleague. She was generally good but her approach is definitely heavy handed. While clipping up my Keratin treated hair, she flung a strand of hair in my face and the strand hit my eye. For the rest of the day and the next, my eye was very red and stinging quite badly. Only after administering eye drops (over the counter) has it gone down. She was also quite heavy handed while using the straightener to seal in the keratin as I could feel hair tearing as she was ironing my hair. The end result of the treatment, however, was great. At least in London temperature anyway. I will be travelling to a really humid country and I have been told that this treatment will keep my hair smooth and frizz free. So I am keeping my fingers crossed! All in all, Rica's personality and hospitality definitely makes the experience pleasant. I would only ask to fit a cushioned cover on the sink where hair is washed, and to ensure the importance of being cautious and careful when using treatment in their clients'/ customer's hair.
The staff are very friendly and spent a lot of time on my treatment however they only have four colours available and only had gel nail varnish rather than gel acrylics.
