First time at Coleshill and I was extremely impressed- not that it should come as a shock to find Essential 2 would be as lovely as Essentials the original!! Two of us had shellac treatments and then massages, as a birthday treat. The staff were delightful, friendly, and efficient. The salon is beautifully done out and fresh, clean and welcoming. We both left fully relaxed and looking for a place for a cocktail and an afternoon nap to carry on the good vibes. Thank you for a chilled out few hours in lovely company. ?

I had the absolute pleasure today, of spending an afternoon with the lovely Emma at Essentials Coleshill. Finger nails painted, toe nails to match and then the closest thing to heaven i know, was the collagen plump and lift facial, which carried me away into a deep and relaxing dream like state, only thing that kept me concious was my fear of snoring.
The staff at both the Coleshill and Castle Bromwich Salons are second to none. In both places there is an easy friendly atmosphere and every member of both teams are extremly attentive. I will certainly be back for more.
Thank you Emma and the Essentials ladies.

I visited Essentials Castle Brom today. I have wanted to try LVL on my lashes for a while. I was a little nervous as had problems with false lashes before, and dint think I had enough of my own to make a difference. Amy did my treatment and was brilliant. I was completely relaxed the whole time, almost falling asleep. The finished look far exceeds what I thought it would and they look awesome. No mascara for me for a while !!! Thank you Amy your a little gem xx

Very nice treatment, skin felt very refreshed and clean. Disappointed that the scalp, neck and shoulder massage wasn't performed as it was listed to be a part of this treatment, and would have helped to distract the drying time of the face mask. Without the massage this treatment felt quite expensive.
Nicole was lovely, explained the treatment fully before hand and good advice given for aftercare X

Thank you for the feedback. We apologise that you did not receive the choice of a scalp and shoulder or foot massage as advertised. We will look into this. We hope that you still saw the main benefits of the treatment in your skin and we hope to see you again.

I have never had a facial before but Megan at Essentials soon put me at ease. She recommended a Decleor Aromessence facial and it was amazing. As well as a facial there was a back, neck, arm and hand massage which was so relaxing. The products used smelt beautiful and hours later my skin still feels soft and supple. I can't wait to go again.
