I’ve been looking for someone to do my lashes for a while and after popping into The Essentials, I decided to book in as the team were so lovely and the salon had such a nice atmosphere. It was also really clean which is always a bonus!

April did my LVL and she was amazing! So friendly and explained everything really well. We had a lovely chat throughout my treatment and you can just tell how knowledgeable she is about all the treatments she offers.

And my lashes look amazing! Honestly the best lift I’ve ever had, I’m so happy with the results!

Thank you so much April, can’t wait for my next appointment! ❤️

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback.

We were really disappointed to read that you didn't feel welcome during your visit, as creating a warm, friendly and comfortable atmosphere for our clients is incredibly important to us.

Although the salon officially opens at 10am, arriving at 9.55am for a 10am appointment should certainly not have left you feeling uncomfortable or as though you had arrived at the wrong time. We are sorry if our greeting came across that way.

We're also sorry to hear that your treatment felt quieter than you would normally expect. We always want our clients to feel looked after throughout their time with us, not just through the treatment itself.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will take your comments on board and discuss them with the team, and we very much hope that your next visit feels much more like the warm and friendly Essentials experience you have come to know.

I’ve had April a couple of times now and both times I’ve had a great experience. She’s really down to earth, makes you feel comfortable instantly, is really reassuring and always leaves me wanting to rebook her again. She’s really passionate about her service and I always have the best results when she does my bikini waxes.
