    Don't go there if you value healthy strong nails!…read more I'm struggling to give them one star! I've been a long term customer for many years, but after my last experience I will not be returning. Not that I will be able to get my nails done for some time, since it will take me months to grow out the damage caused to my fingernails from this one bad manicure/butchery! I went for gel removal and deluxe Mani & Peddi. The technician who was removing the gel from my fingernails, rather than gently buffing the surface on the gel to enable removal used a very coarse file and filled all the gel along with most of the layers of my natural nails, till they were paper thin and had to be cut off all the way down to the nail bed to enable the manicure to be completed. I stopped her five times and asked her to stop filing. If I hadn't had another technician working on my feet, I would have walked out then and there. After completely stuffing my nails, she applied one thick coat of polish rather than two to three that are usually applied, and the nail art is so crooked and badly done, that, rather than getting compliments, for the unusual design, I have been asked a number of times since I got out of there, " is it meant to look like that?" The answer is NO IT'S NOT! APPALING! Even when I complained and asked her to stop, explained that she was filling off the layers of my nails she argued. I'm kicking myself for being to polite to make her stop and do the work properly.

    Initially finding the recommendation on Yelp I decided to check it out as I desperately needed a…read morepedi. The salon was quite during my mid afternoon visit so luckily for me there was no waiting! My pedi was quick (30min) but was accurate and done well. No tools are re used. However, the pumice and nail files used during your treatment are then kindly offered to you to take home (optional). The loyalty card given to me will definitely be utilized. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

    My experience at Miss Fox today was just so damn lovely I could pop. After ogling the pictures and…read morereviews for the past year my lovely partner must have realised my desire to go and so he surprised me with a gift voucher - squeeee! I was greeted at the top of the stairs, immediately offered a cup of tea and guided over to the brightest yet most elegant chairs I have ever seen. As I hastily checked in on Yelp I realised I need not fork out my wallet to purchase a glass of champagne - you get a free one when you check-in. Woo! I was treated to a gel polish manicure on my visit and it was simply exquisite - a far cry from my usual manicures that I get from a certain chain store up the road. The whole process was slow but not tedious and incredibly relaxing. I chose my call - a bubbly pink called "fantasy". My manicurist said "Can I show you my favourite pink polish? I think you might prefer it." SHE WAS RIGHT. It was wah-aaaay better than what I chose. We had lovely chats about family and travel while I sipped my champagne and treated my nails. It was just such a lovely experience. Yes, Miss Fox is pricey however it is worth every penny. A voucher to Miss Fox is probably the best gift a gal could ask for.

    I've always had a lot of nice things to say about Miss Fox and her classic beauty (both the spa and…read morethe owner herself!) but I had to update my two year old review after getting my first full spa treatment there recently. I have long been sending people here but never had a proper massage myself...thankfully this was rectified with a thoughtful Christmas gift of a Diamond Glow Indulgence Ritual (hot tip for partners: this is a gift where serious brownie points are guaranteed). The spa treatments are up another level, where the mood is even more peaceful again. The music is just right (no awkward woodwinds, whale sounds or tinny oriental music here) and the girls are always on hand to settle you in with tea or champagne. The relaxation massage itself was hands down the best I've had in Melbourne/Australia. I've tried many and always been disappointed, but not here. I have extremely sensitive skin and am allergic to a number of natural products, which means facials make me really nervous and I tend to avoid them. When they're in packages I usually try to swap because when I've had them I couldn't enjoy it, feeling too unsettled about my face tingling or possibly erupting in a nasty rash as the therapist ums and errs awkwardly about whether or not it was ok. The girls at Miss Fox are incredibly professional and my therapist Cassie made me feel completely at ease that she had looked into every ingredient and put together a treatment that was going to be suitable for me. I loved it and my skin feels great, ridding my tricky combination skin of its dry patches without giving me a big breakout. If you're wondering whether it's a worthy treat yourself splurge, it absolutely is. I was relaxed from head to toe and my only regret was coming her in the morning and having to do stuff later in the day instead of sitting around drinking champagne!
