From the outside, it looks like it would be the type of shop in which you'd be judged by what you're wearing, but it couldn't be farther from that. Yes, the products are all pretty high end, but the girls who work there are always on hand to give you some advice, wrap your purchase beautifully for you and send you on your merry way again!

Hello. Yesterday I was treated extremely rudely and verbally abused by a staff member at the:Unit…read more8/9, Fountain Centre, College St, Belfast BT1 shop. Woman's description: elderly, dark, shoulder length hair, wearing a black Savers staff jacket. Acted like a manager, I'm bot sure, nor did I get her name. Time: between 02:30 and 3pm yesterday Wednesday March 31st. First of all, I am hearing impaired and in my late 60"s. To scream and yell at a hearing impaired person, or anyone for that matter, I believe is unexceptable at any workplace. I was having difficulty hearing the cashier, which young lady would repeat or answer my question to how much the razors were she was trying to promote. Elderly woman on staff came running up out of nowhere screaming at me, if you take your headphones off, you can hear her. When I attempted to explain to her I am hearing impaired, She shouted, ''get over yourself, get over yourself!'' Which, fact being, I could not hear anyone whatsoever without my signal boosting headphones. All staff were wearing masks, so reading lips would not be possible for me. If only she had let me explain I am hearing impaired. She never gave me a chance. I wear a kind of headphones on the market that are a bone conduction headphones, noise-reducing headphones, and noise-isolating headphones that is used and highly effective for those who are hearing impaired. With a built in microphone that helps me to hear people.They really assist in addition to in my in-ear hearing aids. The only reason I know what events that happened and were said to me was a nice lady in the shop heard and witnessed everything and caught up with me on the street telling me how horribly I had been treated and she stated that was her behavior was inexcusable! This makes me think about how many of those customers, those unfortunate, elderly and impaired, this staff member has mistreated. I appreciate you attention to this matter.

I'm not one for the makeup and beauty products (except for maybe the occasional Friday night...)…read morebut this is a great place for you female Yelpers out there. This place supplies a lot of beauty shops so it sells a lot of stuff in bulk - much of which I have no idea the purpose of. It seems to me that women now need to have some type of experience as a painter and decorator to get ready for a night out. I mean, the process of doing your nails even baffles me. Some sort of primer/undercoat followed by a few coats of nail polish followed by some type of aftercoat?! (should that be overcoat?). I have no idea. What I do know is that the staff in here are friendly, as I was in one day picking up a bottle of some nail varnish (don't ask) which I thought was called opee-eye. Obviously, being unfamiliar with all this non-combatant war paint, I had no idea and just assumed it was the latest brand to launch. Turns out it had been around for a while and it's called OPI. This is the place that supplies salons with products you can't get in Boots. I'd say if any female visitors to Belfast (or groups of them) decide to take the short trip from the city centre for a spot of shopping in Boucher (see my Boucher Crescent retail park review) then they should take a quick trek round here. It's just a few hundred yards from Boucher retail park, which is about 5 minute walk (or four hours in those stilts that women affectionately call 'heels'). Had to give it four stars. I'm not a fan personally, but it does deserve four stars.

My new great discovery. Sallys sells salon size and quality goods to the public. I wonder who…read moreSally is though. Sallys has everything you could possibly need for a home grooming session, all under one roof and at very good prices. Nail supplies, including all the professional standard stuff you need to apply gel and acrylic nails so you and a friend could do each others nails and save a fortune on salon prices. The same goes for all things hair related. Tints, dyes, shampoos, conditioners and treatments. Also brushes and hairdryers, all salon quality. I got my last hair dryer there and it's great - light, very long lead and dries my hair super quick. Considering that the one before that came from Argos for £50 and was a pile of pants, I am very pleased. I think perhaps that in theory the cashier is meant to ask for your trade card, but I have never been asked. But then I am so glam that I could easily be mistaken for a beautician or hairdresser. In my dreams.

This is a company I'd like to support when I am able to, but I am concerned that the product is far too fragranced for my sensitive skin. I've used it now.... So I will just hope for the best.
