Really unusual venue. I'd looked in the window before and had wanted to go in. It was like a ladies club and very nicely decorated and I really want to go back there and I need an excuse. The facial was lovely, and the therapist was sweet. I can't remember too much about the facial though as I fell asleep and snored my way through most of it. I thought it was a good sign to be that relaxed.
I did not mind the fact it is in a basement through an office and I found it easy to find. I had Zee and liked fact she just got on with things. The exfoliation was a bit rough but I will know next time to ask for her to be a bit more gentle...having said that I did leave feeling very clean. I would go again.
Rock chic beauty is nice however I found it a bit hard to find as I wasn't sure if it was the right place as the outside says B.Hive. when I went in I was welcomed by the owner of rock chic who was very friendly. After a few minutes my treatment started and the therapist was great as she explained what products she was using and what it does for my skin. Overall it was a great experience especially as this was my first facial. Very happy with the service

I was really disappointed with this facial, I am not normally fussy and am easily pleased but from all the good reviews I am shocked at how different my experience was. The room was very basic which is fine I dont have a facial for the decor but the therapist seemed very inexperienced. The room was very light and instead of wrapping you up in towels on the bed I had to lie there with a dressing gown on which felt strange. The products she used were great but her techniques were very repetitive and basically consisted of her putting a product on my face rubbing it in excessively and scrubbing it off very roughly with a flannel. If you have a face mask on I always think its a sign of a good therapist if they give you massage in those 'in between' times when you are waiting for the product to come off. A number of time this was the case and the therapist just sat there listening to songs on her phone (yes i could hear!). She did give me a massage during the final face mask but as I said previously it was just a repetitive movement. and wasnt enjoyable.
I'm not usually one to moan but I couldnt wait for this facial to be over as it just felt awkard! On a positive note though the products were lovely and my skin felt very nice afterwards.
