I love this place! It's always so friendly, the treatments are excellent value and the staff are all equally talented. I have been to other salons and had my nails done but these are the best in terns of how long they last. I love the whole experience in the salon, now I've never actually watched loose women but I know the concept of the show and it has that feel in Essentials! Everyone joins in the conversation and has a view and I never want to leave! I always come away thinking I must go back there more often! Great salon, fantastic staff and great value!

Yesterday was my first caci non-surgical face lift and my skin already looks and feels so much better! I have booked a course of 10 and am really looking forward to seeing more in my skin. The therapists are extremely helpful and knowledgable. They recommended this facial for my skin type and they were spot on. I would never go anywhere else for treatments...5 star service everytime

Treated myself to a full body exfoliation and back/neck/shoulder massage - I love Decleor products so,it was like heaven. The therapists are very kind and knowledgeable, with excellent skills. The salon is a little hidden gem and also an oasis of soothing tranquility. I came out feeling very relaxed and my skin is still lovely and soft a few days afterwards - will be going back very soon and would highly recommend to anyone wishing to spoil themselves, without breaking the bank.
