I'll only ever get my brows done at Mona's, because no one does them as good as she does. Threading the traditional way, it never hurts and it's really quick. She probably does it in her sleep. When I first started to going to Mona's she had a small shop at the front of her house and charged four bucks to threat your eyebrows, but she's gotten so popular there's usually a wait, she's employed more staff members, there's a full on hair salon, and low and behold she increased her prices up to five dollars, shock horror. I'm not sure how the prices go for the hair salon as I've never got my hair done there, but I doubt it would be very expensive. She also does eye lash extensions for like forty bucks or something. It's a really relaxed place, everyone seems to know everyone there.

Situated in cute little premises off Devon Lane, there's parking available both outside and in the parking building next door. The interior strikes that perfect blend of clean but welcoming that one looks for in a beauty salon. The staff are beyond friendly. I've commented on a new product on their Facebook page and they've held one for me until my next visit. I don't know how it's possible to make waxing visits relaxing but somehow they manage! Every single staff member is knowledgeable about all the services the salon offers. Another additional advantage is their online booking system, perfect for busy people who might be thinking of booking outside of usual business hours. Body Liqueur makes grooming maintenance easy.

I recently moved into the area and had been going to the same place for over 10 years and so was…read moreextremely nervous about making a change. One of my good friends assured me Body Liqueur was the place to go and so I decided to book myself in and hope I had made the right decision. I rang the salon the day before and was hoping to get an appointment at short notice. The receptionist explained that they had nothing available at short notice as they were very busy. They helpfully asked if I wanted to go on their waiting list or book an appointment on another date, I got the feeling they had said that to a lot of people that day as it did sound slightly scripted! (perfectly pleasant however) I opted for the next available appointment and booked myself in for my regular waxing. The day of my appointment arrived and I visited the salon. I was immediately asked if I wanted a glass of water while I wanted and was offered magazines. I was very nervous and the receptionist (a different person to the one on then phone) seemed genuinely understanding and spend a little time chatting to hel me feel at ease. My therapist - Ammy - popped out and welcomed me through into a hallway and into a treatment room. She was one of the most lovely woman I have ever come across. I felt immediately at ease and she performed her job incredibly well all while remaining professional and calming. I got on extremely well with her and halfway through the treatment had already decided I would return. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone and everyone for waxing. The treatment, salon and staff were all amazing. I am so glad to have found a new place to look after me.

I found the entire experience very superficial and awkward with no personal connection and I left feeling very deflated about my skin as they tried to sell me something for all of my problems they told me that I had.

I'll keep going back to my usual facialist with the most magic hands and truly cares - she's never made me feel like this before!

My esthetician, Brooke, was widely knowledgeable - down to a cellular level (literally) about skin, treatments, products and maintenance. She had lovely interpersonal skills and made a future regime that we both were happy with and I'll continue to see her. I can honestly say that afterwards, I was glowing and she got rid of a lot of the pesky skin issues I was dealing with.

The facial I got was $189, and in the days afterward I had the worst acne I've had in about 10 years. I have been getting facials about monthly for the past 1-2 years at various locations and have never had anything close to this happen. I emailed to tell them that I had had this result and was disappointed, and have not heard back.

That's not how people are treated when you are trying to make things right. Wasted over 3 hours of my time, and 2 hours of petrol turning up to an appointment where I was not made a priority.

However soon I was hearing stories from my friends about how great the foundation was and what a great selection of eye shadows they stock, and I started to take notice. Then my mum came home with a make-up tutorial voucher for the Kingsland branch, so I thought hey, why not. Thank god I went. In just an hour I learnt all about which products are most suitable for my skin type, how to apply bronzer, blush and highlighter depending on whether it is for day or night wear, and also how to do a great smokey-eye - something I'd always struggled with. My tutor was a young funky woman who was incredibly friendly and chatty so even though I was the only customer in the store I was instantly put at ease. She also mixed my foundation there and then for me - unlike most cosmetics stores, Phoenix tailor make/mix their foundations to suit your skin tone. No more putting up with a lighter shade and using darker powder to get the right colour! As well as having a store stocked with eyeshadows, lipsticks, powders, brushes and foundation and providing make-up tutorials, Phoenix also provide eyebrow shaping and tinting services, spray tans and can do make-up for special events like balls and weddings at a very reasonable price. Bonus: As in other cosmetic stores, when you purchase a make-up tutorial or opt to have your make up done for a special occasion, the amount is fully redeemable on product.

The girls at Phoenix always do an amazing job tinting and shaping, plus you can do it all sitting up, so there's none of this lying down falling half asleep business. Phoenix have a great range of beauty products for sale too - my personal favourite being the custom blend foundation. They mix up foundation specifically for your skin tone so you can get it right every time you apply your make up. Hint - there's parking down the driveway at the back, so you don't need to trawl the main road looking for a park!

She did a perfect job on both brow and upper lip. Total time could not have been more than 13 minutes.

Daxa's are a hair salon, and also offer a range of services such as waxing, facials and even heena.
