Like Liz I've used the mystic tan booth at Bronze Bodies on the Parade because I like the privacy -…read morethere's just something a little intimidating about wearing a paper g-string in front of a total stranger. The advantage of the private booth is that you miss out on the lines left by that crazy paper g-string because you can get all of your gear off. One big tip for you though is to remember that you don't have a person there telling you to hold your breath. This is a mechanised booth so don't forget to hold your breath while you're being sprayed otherwise you could end up breathing in some horrible tanning lotion. And I'm sure you can deduct from that tip that I have done exactly that! Bronze Bodies also have tanning beds but I can't stress enough how dangerous these things are. I'm really amazed at the people who use them but even more amazed that they're allowed to operate. If you want a nice summer glow, please just go for the fake stuff - even if it means you have to wear a paper g-string in front of a stranger for 10 minutes!

Bronze Bodies was my go-to tanning salon between the ages of 17-21 for a night on the town, or if…read morethere was a any special occasion I would feel the need to bathe myself in all goldenness. I'm paranoid about skin cancer and all that, so fake tanning is really my only option unless I tan somewhere overseas where an o-zone layer is still existent... Having said that though, I also don't constantly look like I drowned myself in a bag of Doritos - this is reserved for special occasions only - I still prefer a natural look overall. So when I want that extra radiance, I head to Bronze Bodies because their service is overall better than other tanning salons I've been to, they're close by, and they have the Mystic Tan Booth which is private. My personal favourite is the Amber Sun tan which takes around 6-8 hours to process and has a much more natural look. The staff are also very friendly and helpful, and their tans aren't OTT either, which is always good to see before you use their products.

It's all in the name! Offering pure indulgence, these wonderful ladies treated me so beautifully…read morefrom the moment I entered the salon. In fact, their service and warm helpfulness began on the phone. Referred by a friend, I phoned looking for a short notice booking for myself and two girlfriends. We wanted to all have facials at the same time, prior to my friend's wedding the following day. They bent over backwards to accommodate us and after some creative juggling on their part, sorted us out a booking just when we wanted it and complete with a private room so we could bring our own champagne and nibbles. We each had a facial in succession, while the other two stayed in the 'champagne room'. So we were there over 3 hours and they made us feel so welcome and pampered. Each spa treatment begins with a foot spa, which feels amazing. New clients fill in a questionnaire based on Ayeurvedic principles and temperaments, to determine the type of aromatherapy oils and blends that are most suitable. A complimentary hot beverage is also part io the treatment as is a small gift pack of products and information on the first visit. Their marketing materials could be the subject of a 'this is how you should do it' masterclass. The treatment room is dimly lit with candles, smells divine, has unusual and pretty ornaments and features as well as relaxing music. I saw Kerri who just made me float away with serenity. She was sensitive and professional. All of us came out absolutely glowing and our skin felt sensational! I felt compelled to return the following week for a full body aromatherapy massage and saw Rose, who was also sensitive and professional. The care and attention as well as the take-away feeling of utter relaxation and rejuvenation is just amazing. I can't recommend them too highly. The salon offers a range of services including beauty treatments, the patented Anastasia brow treatments, hair and nails. Can't wait to book in again. I could get used to a life filled with L'indulgence!

Kudos Hair is a small hairdresser right near the entertainment centre. Hairdressers are hard to get…read moreright, they are a very personal choice. However, the resident hairdresser at Kudos, David, is definitely a good choice. He used to work at SAX along Unley Rd until he recently opened up his own place. The interior of Kudos is very appealing. It is black and white, with minimal decorations and a red couch. Oh and the chairs. When you are having your hair washed you get to sit in chairs that give the rest of your body a massage. I didn't think there was anything better than a head massage at the hairdressers, but this is it. David always gives a good haircut. He is also amazing at dying. Once I decided my pink hair needed to be blonde. I proceeded to sit at the hairdressers for three hours until I had an amazing white blonde colour!

I paid $150 to have crap quality (heavy, plastic, matte black - way too long, asked for natural, these were NOT natural looking at all), massive lashes put on. To try and get them removed was such a hassle and I wasn't offered a refund or to replace them with natural looking lashes. The lady who put them on was so surly. So rude. If she had spent 5 minutes asking me questions before the appointment just asking what I wanted none of this would have happened. She saw I was pregnant and couldn't even be bothered offering me a knee pillow. I paid $140 for lash lift and tint. Afterwards my lashes were the same colour and my lashes were as straight as when I went in. Bitterly disappointed. I did these things as a luxury for myself. Lift and tints for birthday. Extensions for pregnancy (and being pregnant means you have so little options to do nice things for yourself).

The salon has some beautiful architectural features such as high ceilings, a rustic exposed brick wall and polished floorboards. Offering a range of beauty treatments as well as hair styling, this salon and its lovely staff can pamper you from head to toe. I appreciate good communication as part of a salon visit and Hayley and team begin with a consultation and then continue with updates throughout the visit to manage expectations. Although not a coffee drinker myself, I have it on good authority that they serve a mean cuppa here and that the Cibo beans are delicious! On my first visit, Hayley did a fabulous job of matching my highlights and mixing the perfect shades, even though she hadn't met me before. The colour lasted beautifully and I'm now enjoying my second visit as I type and am each moment getting closer to the transition to princess! All the little things are covered off well too; such as, cleanliness, refreshments, timeliness, latest magazines, easy access toilet, non-cramped stations and even a vibrating basin chair. They have a great (and active) Facebook page with tips and styles and my final tip is to check in on Yelp for an added bonus!

I have taken many of my girlfriends here for their birthdays, and I have been suprised a few times myself with spontaneous trips. With an inner city location, this Endota is smaller and a little noiser than others, just from sheer building size and traffic. But they have decked the place out with soothing music and equipment and try their best to make the place quiet and serene. Endota Rundle is 3 stories tall, with the reception and entry on the middle level. There is a tea/waiting room downstairs along with some treatment rooms and larger group rooms upstairs. The therapists are amazing, as expected, and they know their stuff, tailoring each treatment to suit the client. Sometimes I have had nice chats with them, or a laugh, or a silent treatment where I have almost fallen asleep. If you want something a little different, get Alex the male therapist, he is pretty cool.
