    5 stars for the lovely Edel (makeup). My esteemed colleague and I were after a bit of pampering in prep for an evening rubbing elbows with some fine folks, and we landed at Brown Sugar for the treat. Edel was a gem. Super professional, great listener, perfectionist (which is what you want!), and just overall really nice to be around. She's very skilled and though I entered looking tired and worn, I exited looking fresh and fierce. Miracle worker! Beyond that the reception staff kept plying us with prosecco and cupcakes, so...can't really argue with that. Beauty, sweets and booze!? I mean, it's the trifecta of an afternoon well spent. Overall a really easy breezy experience from start to finish. Walked out sugared, buzzed and with a face I've not been able to replicate since. It's a bit pricey, but not exorbitantly so given the attention to detail.

    Tucked away shampoo aka treatment room

    Booked for me as a surprise, I was a little apprehensive cause their blackrock branch, hmmm... Well I wasn't impressed but no, I'm totally won over by this place! Brown Sugar, primarily a hairdresser but these guys have got it right... It's a one stop shop; you can have hair, make up and nails allowing you to totally pamper yourself. Got a special occasion coming up, hit this place and have everything coordinated without having to run from hairdressers to beauty salon :-) My consultation on hair cut was great, stylist really took time to understand what I was after and how best to work my limp thin hair... Ok, cut decided, I was taken to the 'treatment room' which is a dark subtle lit room with beautiful essence oils and the most amazing massage chairs so totally relaxed as my shampoo'ing was done. After shampoo, taken back out to for my cut and was presented prosecco + cupcake, so cupcake is a standard but they knew it was my birthday so they laid on prosecco, great little added touch! Loved it... Going for a complete change the stylist really did work well on it and I left the salon feeling great and for once, my hair was set great so didn't feel the usual urge to run home and redo it...! I also had my nails done, file + polish, wow they had a massive range of polish colours to choose from. They do everything from basic polish to gel nails, manicures, etc. Why only 4 stars? They were so busy that things seemed a little chaotic, I should have had my nails done first with my friend in the end they split us up so I had hair done first, my friend had her nails and also I wanted a patch test so had to remind them twice. And trying to schedule in for a colour next week took a while cause front desk, the poor lady was juggling 5 people trying to settle up and phones ringing! Looking forward to seeing what they do with my colour, tint and halo next week!

    I am in Brown Sugar as I write for a special treat. This chain of salons have trainees you see, and they need people to practice on. That's how I got there! 1* For the hairstylist: Shawna is a gem. Although she is a trainee, she gives her everything everytime she takes care of my hair. And I am super careful when it comes to my hair due to past hair nightmares happening in the past at other salons. That could be in another review... 1* For the salon: They have just moved to 26 South William street for some reason unknown to me. The new place is spacious, new, clean. Maybe lacking a bit of a brand touch but it's fresher than the previous salon! 1* For the product: I chose to have a chestnut colour as we are now entering autumn time. I think it's a smart move. Plus I going on a business trip tomorrow, which means I need to be hair ready. You know what I mean. The products are gentle to the hair and soft like a bunch of feathers. I am on a cloud! 1* For the service: Shawna has a light touch, like an ASMR girl ! I am always happy when she works with my hair, it makes me feels so relaxed it's unbelievable. I recommend her 200%. 1* For the overall experience: This place is magic. It makes me like hair salons again. For the price I cannot really tell because of the special trainee treatment I get. It's a bit of a gamble to me and a training for her. Thumbs up for Brown Sugar in South William street ! Let me know if you have any questions and I will get back to asap. Take care :)

    Prosseco and cupcakes. Eh yes please
