I only went for a facial at Clarins because I had a voucher for money off it, but I won't need such…read morean excuse to go again. Despite being tucked away behind the counter in the middle of a busy Debenhams store, I felt like I was in a little quiet oasis as soon as I went in. The room was very comfortable and relaxing, and the therapist spent time going through a skin consultation and explaining exactly what the facila would involve. The treatment itself was fantastic. It included a scalp and a hand massage which made it very relaxing, and my skin was glowing after. Definitely the best facial I've ever had.

Depending on how the hairdresser feels that day, you get a very good , or very average cut…read more i agree with one comment below: on one occasion, i had a lady cutting my hair.... I wasn't sure she knew how to cut hair: i ended up coming back , asking for another member of staff. Also she did not wet hair at all!

Perhaps one of the strangest Supercuts locations, it is located on Chester's St Werburgh Street,…read morebasically, next to the Cathedral, which is a slip road off the city's main shopping area, this is a place one would expect to perhaps find coffee shops and bars, so finding a hairdressers here is interesting, they sadly don't make the most of the location as it's hard to see the Cathedral from inside and impossible while you're having a hair cut, the poor construction of this store is a wasted opportunity of a hair cut with a view, which could give them the warrant to charge their high prices of £14.95 for a dry cut, I mean they might get away with this in large cities such as Manchester, London and Birmingham but charging that in the centre of Chester is just expensive and poor. The high-end prices didn't give me high-end treatment, I would even question if my barber was actually qualified to deal with men's hair (both staff members working were older women), she didn't even use any water on my hair when using the clippers to make it easier to cut (Every other barber I've been to has used some water?) The gown type sheet to cover me from hair also seemed useless, I'm not tall nor overweight and it didn't cover me, I ended up getting covered in hair especially as my hairdresser kept knocking it (the hair fell on me), which again isn't ideal. I was also confused why the staff needed to take a lunch break, an hour before closing when I was the only customer there as they seemed to time the break for as soon as a customer walked in; they also had to take my name to register me on their system which again I couldn't understand, I only wanted a hair cut! High prices and poor overall service is the reason Supercuts is failing (They recently entered administration) and the Chester branch here shows that more than most. 1*

Lush is a fantastic place to go shopping for the women in your life. Birthdays, Christmas, it makes…read moregift buying so much easier. Just head in either fill a bag with suitable looking soaps, bath bombs and other idea items or if you want the really simple solution just look for the ready wrapped gift section where they have found things that smell good together to save you doing it. The best thing about it is that the products are all made by hand and with natural ingredients and the packaging is limited meaning that is more environmentally sound. The only trouble I find is that the smells are so strong that my nose can't stand it for too long so I have to dash in and out quickly! The Chester branch is comparatively small but seems to have quite a good range of items. In the run up to Christmas they seem to have offers on so there are probably bargains to be had, especially if you have several people to buy for.

I'm not the biggest fan of Lush shops, as i generally like to be able to breathe while…read moreshoppingsomething i struggle with in any Lush shops, but this one is better than most. It has a fairly open front, and so there is at least a little more oxygen going round! You can smell the place from some distance away, so at least you dont get lost looking for it! The produce is fairly cheap considering the quality, but the overpowering scents still make me a bit of a non-fan. Its one thing smelling nice, its another killing people!
