I have been looking for a good hair salon let alone a good hair dresser for over a year in Geelong…read more I found Jackie D's review and thought I would give Racoco's a try. When I rang to make an appointment it was VERY loud in the background and very difficult to hear the person on the other end. Needless to say, I finally got an appointment time/date. A text came through the day before to remind me of the appointment. Upon arrival, I realized why it was so loud when I rang. There were rows of stations (about 4 rows with I think 4 stations in each row) and about 4 people standing behind the counter. I was escorted to a station straight away. To confirm what Jackie D mentioned about the T.V.s at each station.... there are but they just had the same trashy music videos playing on every single one (the T.V.s are inside the mirror and about 5"X7" big. The music from the music video's was blaring in the background along with the hair dryers, people talking etc. it was a tad bit overwhelming!! My hair dresser was Jess, she wasn't overly friendly, chatty and didn't smile much; which was a surprise since most of the hair dressers were very chatty! She seemed to listen to what I wanted; low lights in the auburn/brunette range that blended well (my hair was a medium blonde with highlights). Either she wasn't in the mood to chat or she figured I was enjoying the magazine enough to not really engage in conversation; which over all was okay with me. The trouble of starting out with new hair dressers always is realizing my hair is very fine and takes on color very quickly. So she had to rinse out 1/3 of my foils by the time she was finished my head, then another 1/4 rinsed out and finally after about 15 minutes rinsed out all the foils. By this time Jess had another client so I Hayley finished rinsing my hair and applied the toner. Hayley did an AMAZING job with the head massage!! Oh my, it was one of those ones that I would just go back for the head massage!!! Plus the rinse stations had massaging chairs and the ability to put your feet up. Well when I got back to the station to finally look in the mirror after all the color had been rinsed out.... I realized there was ALOT of blonde!! I guess the communication was not as good as I had thought. So even though it looked good.... it pretty much was a freshened up version of what I already had.... which I had wanted mostly auburn lowlights with just a few blonde nicely mixed in. Hayley asked what I wanted to do with my hair i.e. body, flat etc. I said body since normally my hair is quite flat. She took probably a good 20-25 minutes blow drying my hair to get some body! It hurt a lot because of the pulling, but in the end it was okay. I found it interesting through out the time Jess and Hayley were attending to me, there were people floating around constantly asking how they were or how other stylists were doing. They would bring what ever it was they needed or set up stations how every the hair dresser requested. It was kind of like the gopher runs.... but very efficient and seemed very team orientated! Also one of the 'gophers' did a meter run for me.... which was very nice! Also the 'gophers' would go around and ask if anyone wanted to order food; the placemats are each station had menus for alcohol, coffee, simple foods etc. I did not take advantage of the food, but I saw a few yummy looking dishes go out and coffees. Jess came back shortly after Hayley had finished blow drying. I told Jess that I had wanted a bit more low lights than it was... she said she would write down what we did that day and add more low lights next time. Which was a nice answer, I am not sure if she realized it until that second that communication wasn't great initially or I am not sure. But it was okay. She did a nice job on the trim. I was very happy to have a smaller bill than I had anticipated!! As Jackie D said it was much less than many Melbourne Salons for similar service. I will be back, which is another pleasant surprise as since I have been in Geelong for 15 months I have never returned to the same Salon twice. I would recommend for everyone to experience Rococo's at least once, as it is definitely a different experience than other Salon's I have been around Geelong (which I have tried 6 in 15 months).

A good hairdresser is one of the most important things to a twentysomething gal, and I spent YEARS…read morehunting down mine. From Geelong to Melbourne and back again I finally found Ally and haven't turned back. These ladies are all over current and future trends like a RASH. I was talked in to going 'ombre' (only ladies will understand the term) and 6 months later it was splashed on everyone's head. So no matter what style you want - classic or something different - they have it sorted. The salon itself is decadent - massage chairs, TV's in every stall and a wine/beer list to make the local bars hang their heads in shame! Who doesn't like a sneaky drink while they're getting pampered? They can also supply you with lunch or just a snack if you are going to spending a few hours there... Despite all this, Rococo remain VERY affordable and literally hundreds of dollars cheaper than an equivalent salon in Melbourne.

We came here while on a weekend trip to Portsea. We called in the morning to try and book 4 girls…read morein for a pedicure and they got us in no problem! 4 of us went in and got pedis for $25 each (cheap!). They have 5 massage chairs and a small room for waxing etc. Not a super clean/polished looking place but clean enough to want to stay to get your nails done. Both of the girls working were friendly :)

Went for a day trip during our vacation and had an absolute blast! All the staff were super…read moresweet/welcoming and the facilities were well maintained. Few tips: - Rent a robe, it's so much easier than a towel IMO - Grab lunch at their spa restaurant, the food is DELICIOUS. I had the fish and it was cooked perfectly and was one of my favorite meals in Australia. - Go on a weekday so there's less folks around! We got to stay at the hilltop pool on our own for quite a while cause no one else came up! - Take mosquito repellent cause I got a few bites while I was there but honestly other than the mosquitos, everything was perfect.

Gift Vouchers - DO NOT BUY!!!!! If you you are thinking of…read morepurchasing gift vouchers for loved ones, my advice is DON'T!!!! Below you will see my experience, but this is not just a once off purchase or entry. Through work with big groups they have received thousands of dollars as well as private gift vouchers previously purchased and they have been made abundantly aware through multiple emails. After spending almost $600 on a couples retreat voucher for my partner and I, We tried to book the voucher and we found that it was 2 and a half months past the 3 year expiry, as I believed it to be a 5 year expiry (my error in thinking). Unfortunately due to massive complications we have been unable to be able to utilise the time to go down and use the voucher, I called customer service to which they recited the ACCC code of conduct and told me they WON'T extend the voucher, to which the supervisor/manager then got on the phone and said the same reciting once again they have no obligation to extend the voucher therefore they won't. She did however tell me I can try emailing, to which I did. The response via email after I explained the situation, ended in the same way but ending it with trying to encourage myself to try and buy into another experience across multiple emails back and forth. Was there and offer of extending the voucher like red balloon do for an extra admin fee? NO Was there an offer of re issuing a lesser value experience? NO Not even an offer of general admission entry for the $600 spent. It doesn't matter if you have had a stroke, heart attack, hit by a truck or held captive in Afghanistan. If you want the voucher extended, the answer is NO, as the ACCC guidelines allow them to have no ethics into making sure they keep every dollar they can. The landscape is wonderful and ideally a voucher will be a great gift idea set your money aside until you are ready to use the experience rather than purchasing vouchers or your money may just be absorbed if you are unable to use it no matter the circumstances. I have mostly had good experiences here and have had very little issues, but given these issues I will no longer be encouraging anybody to visit the Peninsula Hot Springs or the Metung Hot Springs any more!

My friend recommended this place for a spray tan before my wedding. I was so happy with the trial…read morethat I went back before the wedding for the tan, an eyebrow tweeze, eyelash tint, waxing and sugaring. Sugaring is great! It pulls on the skin a bit but I found it lasts longer than waxing. Thanks to the staff who got me ready for my wedding in December! Such a pleasant and professional experience! I will definitely return whenever I come home to Geelong.

The owners, Michaela and Sandra at Kalo Hair Beauty have made me feel so comfortable at their salon. They are always so friendly and I have never been happier with my colour before! I feel comfortable enough now that I would even let them know if I was unhappy, and I know they would gladly do anything to make sure I left the salon feeling great. This is why I always go back, and this is why I always will. Friendly staff, great colours and amazing service!!
