Everyone was so helpful and friendly. The massage I had was very relaxing and Laura was very friendly and professional. When I was leaving I asked about a treatment for my nails. A product was recommended, which I purchased and I was told if I needed anymore advice just to pop in. The treatment has worked wonders. Very happy with the whole experience.

I went to the Coleshill branch of The Essentials on Saturday for a facial with Amy. The treatment began with a relaxing back massage and then the facial. Both were really relaxing and I fell asleep as Amy’s gentle hands did their work. Skin felt amazing afterwards and had a lovely glow. Thank you.

This was my first visit to the salon and a return to waxing following a bad experience a few years ago. Amy was absolutely lovely and put me at ease - no mean feat! She explained everything to me and was chatty and friendly. This is the first time I’ve had a lycon wax and I’ll definitely be back. Amy’s calm helped me to relax. She worked quickly and throughly. It’s such a relief to find a therapist who you can trust. Thanks Amy!
