At last , after 4 months I had my spot in the salon today. Andrea did a perfect job and my nails are once again presentable. Covid guidelines are clear and there are good distance restrictions throughout. All staff doing treatments were wearing visors and everything was cleaned or replaced between clients. Screens have been put in place across tables and at the reception desk for more protection. I felt extremely safe and was more than happy to be back. Thank you ladies for all your hard work. X

Thanks Nicole for my first lycon Hollywood wax, I would recommend lycon to anyone who has any bikini waxing, it’s less painful and I think you get a smoother finish. The salon followed the new guildlines perfectly ready for re opening, hand sanitiser and a face mask on arrival etc

Thanks

Well where do I start! I love my monthly visits to this salon. All the ladies are so welcoming and friendly and make you feel at ease. The range of treatments available is fantastic. I’ve been having monthly facials and trying out the new Katherine Daniels range, which I love. Amy does wonderful facials and is very knowledgeable about the products. With her help I have finally found out what my skin type is and I’m now on my way to better skin and can already see the difference!! Overall a fantastic salon and amazing therapists❤️
