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!

This was my first time at Coleshill Salon and it was fantastic , really welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere. Amy was very friendly and professional, she explained the facial and procedure . During the facial she explained what she was doing and asked if I was ok and enjoying it and we chatted easily in general, she really puts you at ease . Can’t wait to revisit and will recommend to friends and family .
