I've been here a few times to get my eyebrows waxed and I've never been particularly impressed…read more Every time I've been here I've arrived perfectly on time for my appointment (I'm a punctuality freak, okay?) and am always kept waiting in the waiting room for at least fifteen minutes. This wouldn't bother me too much (I understand that businesses get busy and then get behind) but at 5th Avenue Beauty there are always two or three staff and only one other customer. I don't understand why they're behind when they have more staff than customers and two or three empty treatment rooms. When I finally get in to the treatment room, the waxing is fine. It's perfunctory, and there is no head massage or relaxation element to it, but the end result is decent enough. But I'm always a bit disappointed in the pain level (higher than I'd like) and the price (which is the same as what I've paid elsewhere but without service as good). The staff are perfectly nice, and my quest for neater eyebrows is always successful, but the whole experience is fairly basic and a bit of chore as opposed to elsewhere where getting hairs ripped from my face almost seems like a pampering. Also, don't be fooled by their hours. They say they're open Tues/Wed/Thurs 9am-9pm but when you read the fine print you find that it's only by appointment so that if you try to call for an appointment on one of those days you'll get no answer. 5th Avenue Beauty is convenient to where I live and useful in an eyebrow-related emergency, but it's never my first choice.

Beautiful day spa, great staff but pricey!…read more We were a little confused about the service offered and costing, but not to worry. The ladies sorted us out. Had the best shellac polish I've ever had and a great little massage - mmmmm. Would definitely come back - but only for special occasions. Definitely not an everyday activity purely based on price.

Ever wanted to feel like a princess for a day? Then you need an appointment at Sakura day spa…read morepronto. Just had the most beautiful experience there. Booked in for a full body scrub, wrap, mini facial followed by a rain shower and came out feeling like a new woman. Now I know you can get these services in a lot of places, but lots of places give them to you in rooms that are basically the size of tall coffins and hardly relaxing. My treatment room at Sakura on the other hand was actually two rooms and bigger than some hotel rooms I've stayed in (with two other people I might add). To say I was transported and then transformed probably sums it up. And the whole thing was made even better by the caring nature of the lady who looked after me. Can't wait to come back.

I was given a gift voucher by my husband that was worth around $400 for a 4 hour spa package. I…read moremanaged with great difficulty to convince them to use this over 3 sessions as I have young kids. On my first session, Due to limited parking on Vernon terrace or surrounding streets I was 6 mins late, so upon arrival instead of being welcomed I was told by the therapist that next time they would have to take the time off my session as she has back to back appointments today. During my massage she kept talking and asking me where I was from because I didn't look Australian and had different skin and features. Then she asked me really irrelevant questions such as how long I have travelled to get there. On my 2nd session the owner was at reception and I was 5 minutes late again due to the parking issue. As I entered she asked me if I had been vaccinated for Covid and if not why not. Then she said that her staff had been vaccinated and that soon she is going to introduce a policy at her day spa to reject people entry who have not been vaccinated. I said vaccinations aren't mandatory yet by the government so she should stop asking intrusive questions. Then she told me to fill out a form with 4 really intrusive questions about vaccinations: have you been vaccinated? Are you on a waiting list for a vaccination? Which one, Pfizer or AstraZeneca? Something along those lines. She then said, you're late again and this time we will have to take the time off your massage but instead of taking me straight in she put me in a room to have tea for 10 mins taking another 10 mins off my massage. She said sorry but my staff has back to back appointments again. The whole time I was there I only saw this one staff she had booked up back to back 2 weeks in a row. I didn't turn up for my 3rd session as I felt super anxious going there because I didn't know what to expect this time. Halfway through this treatment I started coughing with a tickle in my throat because my sinuses were playing up which usually happens due to cheap essential oils in some cosmetic products. So the therapist left me for about 10 minutes and entered with a mask (which I realised she wasn't wearing the whole hour prior to my cough). Vaccines don't exclude you from wearing a mask, she should have been wearing one to begin with so that was another 10 mins taken off my session. Sadly I found this experience far from relaxing and pampering. The whole time I was there I felt resentful, tense and ripped off. In addition, the sheets and towel felt oily and unhygienic and the products used in my treatment were cheap. Absolute Waste of money. Apologies to my husband who had spent a while researching the best gift to get me for Mother's Day. This place is bringing down the vibes in a classy end of town. Spend your money on another day spa if you're looking to get pampered in a relaxing environment and not be judged.

From the moment I walked in, I felt at home and very comfortable. The lady at the front desk greeted me with a smile, and although I did not have an appointment they fitted me right in. The shop was extremely tidy and clean, exactly what you would want and expect. The massage therapist that looked after me was named Dar. You could tell she certainly knew what she was doing. There was a wide range of massage therapies to choose from, I went with the deep tissue massage. I suffer from chronic neck pain and when I pointed this out, the massage therapist was very accommodating. She was also very co-operative with the pressure level I am comfortable with. This is where a lot of massage shops fail in not providing suitable pressure. I will be recommending Bangkok Thai Massage to all my friends!

The space is compact but they're easily able to seat four at the nail tables and a few more in the back for pedicures and waxing. As you walk in you can sense that many of the clients are regulars -- a good sign as a first time client! I was in and out in under 30mins and despite the state of my nails, Prue was warm and welcoming. She worked her magic and gave me some top tips on keeping my hands looking their best in between appointments. They offer a range of nail services, waxing (for the gents too) and I shall be back for a shellac manicure in the near future.

Having tried out another salon nearby and deciding they just weren't for me, I am now firmly on the Brazilian Beauty train. Once a month you will see me wandering down Vernon Terrace to their little salon. Walking in is like transporting yourself to a beautiful oasis. There is lots of comfortable seating and while you wait you will be surrounded by a wide variety of products and samples to play with. You can sip on the kettle of herbal tea being gently warmed by a tealight candle or just soak up the relaxing, soothing music and essential oil blends permeating the air. My therapist, Beth is a skilled woman! She takes care of all of my waxing requirements and is down to earth and professional. Wax is always fresh and it takes just 20 minutes for her to do a full brazilian! I also see Kaitlin every few months for my anti-wrinkle needs. A qualified injectible practitioner, Kaitlin is very knowledgeable and skilled at what she does. I've been to countless salons and she honestly gives me the best results out of any of them. Her treatments are painless and effective and I am left with minimal recovery time. I have also had a spray tan (my first ever!) administered by Charlotte, the salon manager. It was a fantastic experience and I will always be thankful for her patience that day! I can't wait to try more of the treatments available!
