I have to write about my time here as it was not what i expected unfortunately,…read moreyour salon was recommended to me from a friend and I don't know if I got the girls on a bad day or something a girl with short black hair was doing my acrylics ( I didn't get her name) very bad quality might I add for the price, the acrylic was thick and uneven and my cuticles where cut she was very rough and rushed the whole thing. Not to mention as much as I hate to say this she had extremely bad breath and I didn't want to embarrass her by saying something in the salon, my appointment wasn't early either so i couldn't have even blamed it on morning breath, I couldn't wait to get out of that chair Hygiene is key in any work place! The girl that was doing my acrylic looked tired and looked like she didn't want to be there and I felt like I was bothering her, on the other hand the nail painters where pleasant enough and seemed a bit more enthusiastic and nicer to talk to. I won't be back it was a disgrace to say the least and I will not be recommending this nail salon to anyone Awful!

If you are looking for something a little different or have the guts to dye at home without expensive salons, this is the place for you.

They offer free consultations and are stockists of all the usual brands of spray tan such as Fake Bake, He-Shi and Sun FX. Sun FX would be my brand of choice in this salon - they gave me a really nice even tan with no appointment and no streaks for only £15. As well as offering all the usual services such as facials ad nails they also have semi permanent make up and a male grooming service. The semi permanent make up is £295 for the make up and a revisit and a top up - I personally would not be a fan of this but I have heard people say they do a really good job! I think this is a great place to nip in for a bit of beauty treatment if you are in the center of town - it is good value for money, friendly and convenient. Plus, I love the fact that they advertise all their special offers on the front window so you know what to ask for and how much it will be before you even go into the shop.

I've been to absolute beauty several times now. The staff have always been very welcoming and it's…read morealway been very easy to book an appointment, I was normally able to get an appointment later that day or the next (this was the main reason I kept coming back). However, the quality of my wax has never been great. I've seen several different beauticians, the first girl left my bikini area bruised after every wax I had with her and the rest normally left large patches of hair. I been waxing for 10 years now and know that 6-8 weeks is the right amount of time to leave between my waxes to get the best results. Despite this at my last appointment my hairs were just broken rather than removed. There were also several large patches of hair that had been missed on my legs and part of my bikini area. Including both my knees, ankles and feet. At £45 each visit I'd expect better quality, for this reason I've decided to go else where.

Tucked away at the back of the lower ground floor of House of Fraser, the Clarins spa is ab fab…read moredarling! I started to use this salon when my lovely husband gave me a gift voucher for Christmas and once the voucher ran out I liked it so much I began forking out actual cash. My favourite treatment is the fake tan application. Unlike most salons which use cold spray tan machines, the Clarins girls, who are all really friendly, use a tan which has to be rubbed in. The good news is that they do so carefully and slowly so you actually feel like you're getting a massage in the process. The other benefit of this kind of tan is that you get a really natural colour and no-one will use the 'hilarious' line 'Have you been tangoed?' Something else I noticed is that these therapists are super professional, asking all about allergies and reactions and giving clear instructions about how to look after your skin after a treatment. Despite the spa's location in the upmarket House of Fraser, prices are competitive, for example £8 for an eyebrow wax and so it's pretty busy. If I had to talk about a drawback to the spa's location, I would mention the one and only time I have had a pedicure and toenail polish there. Not being forward thinking enough to bring along a pair of flip flops or sandals for going home in , I had to walk through the store to the car park in my smart work clothes and a pair of paper flip flops. Sooo not a good look sweetie, but a lesson learned!
