You don't tend to see many trendy young people in the store but a lot of the clothes are good classic pieces that are very suitable for work. Staff are pleasant and chatty.

I've had all of my piercing's done here; ear lobes, eyebrow, and industrial…read more Two of three failed. The ear lobes both succeeded [which I'd expect since it's the simple piercing to execute]. The eyebrow failure: it was performed by the owner, Nicole - she mistargeted the insertion points (too wide apart) so the bar ended up being too short: this caused inordinate swelling and pressure leading me to take it out after a week of deliberating. I got a refund and an offer to have it replaced for free, which was respectable customer service. I didn't get it replaced. Eyebrow Solution: I think she knew that she'd performed a poor placement of the eyebrow piercing as soon as she performed it but wishfully justified the placement - in that wasn't that far from perfect and it should still work out. I think she should have admitted failure right away upon noticing her placement was poor and offered to re-do it as soon as it had healed; tallying it up to having made a mistake by eying the placement holes rather than using a ruler or measuring device. The industrial failure: I kept it in for a year with issues all throughout. This was performed by Seb, the main guy there. The issues, I found, were largely my fault due to sleeping on the side where the piercing was placed - Seb did make it clear I should avoid this by using an aeroplane pillow for side sleeping but this proved, in practice, impractical. The biggest issues came a lot when I began to develop keloid scars on both sides of the industrial inserts. Seb did attempt some reasonable-sounding troubleshooting: I was told to massage the scars in the shower for some weeks for a few minutes each time in an attempt for this to press them away - I tried this and it failed. Then, after going back I was given two small bars to replace the long industrial bar; I was given washers on each end of each bar in an attempt to squash/massage out the scars naturally. This also failed. In turn, I eventually took both bars out because the scars were expanding in size rather than shrinking. I must now [inconveniently] get them removed by a surgeon of sorts, which is an issue I'm currently solving. I must add, I have heard these keloid type scars are due to a genetic predisposition (although I haven't verified this). Industrial solution: A solution would have been to remove it immediately as the scars showed development and call it a failure at that point, but Seb must not have much data to pull from with Keloid scars - I suspect the idea the scars could be pushed down to be a fallacy and he hadn't seen any evidence. They're scars, I don't think [like most scar tissue] that it goes away easily. I could be wrong though, he may have found success with other clients with this technique.

Eleven is a designer clothes shop…read more They have recently bought the rights to sell Stone Island, this means they are the only shop in Sunderland with Stone Island Apparel. They also sell Hugo Boss, Ralph Lauren and Fred Perry. The store is very spacious and has 2 floors. The building is very big and old with hard wood flooring, there are a lot of old cult pictures and merchandise decorated around the store.

Eleven is a premium clothing retailer which specializes in selling high end clothing. Many of the…read moredesigner labels Eleven sell are well known for their quality including Hugo Boss, Ralph Lauren and Stone Island. Although the items Eleven sell are undeniable quality the same can not be said for the lethargic customer service, their depleted stock levels and their online presence. On numerous occasions I have browsed their website, viewed an item I would like to purchase (with the website clearly stating the availability of the item including different sizes), only to find upon arrival to the physical store that they have sold out of the item, even though the website states the item is in stock. For example I wished to purchase a Paul Smith jumper, the website said the jumper was available in small, medium, large and extra large, however when I entered the tangible store Eleven only had medium in stock. I do question whether the relevant clothing is actually available in Eleven or just a marketing ploy to attract customers to buy other related items. Another issue I had was with the websites misrepresentation of their opening times. The website states the opening times as 9 - 5:30 Monday to Saturday. However based on past experience the shop does not open until 9:30, what poor service. In conclusion to this review I would recommend not using their online presence as an indicator on their stock levels/opening times, rather to phone the shop directly to make enquiries. For any potential customers interested in the world of designer labels purchase from reputable stores such as House of Fraser. Thank you for anyone who has taken the time to read this review.
