Even though in 2010 I moved further into the city, the fact that Jay is now 20 minutes walk for me and yet I still go to see her says everything you need to know. I occasionally have other treatments but as far as the regular wax goes, the time goes so quickly and pleasantly as Jay keeps me talking throughout. She remembers everything I talked about during my last treatment and asks how I'm getting on with all my projects. We also swap movie chat and she listens patiently as I tell her about by travels and my writing. Jay has never been late for me despite always being busy. They offer late appointments and only take cash but there is a cash point right outside.

Situated in Edgbaston near the top of Broad St, this salon is very convenient for anyone living or…read moreworking near by. The interior is a lot more inviting than the exterior would lead you to believe. It;s decorated with patterned wallpaper which gives it a modern feel. They have a good clientele base with many regular faces popping in throughout the week. There have both stand up and lay down sunbeds available which you can either pre book or just walk in if you're passing by. Before you go in the sunbed, don't forget to ask the girl behind the desk for some goggles. They also sell a range of tanning creams which will prolong your tan so definitely worth asking about these if you pop in.

I assumed the treatment rooms would be quite small however i was pleasantly surprised to find that they were a very decent size! My therapist Hannah, was lovely and immediately made me feel relaxed and comfortable. I had a back neck and shoulder massage, which was amazing, i could really feel the difference....it did get quite painful at one point as i had ALOT of knots in my shoulders but she got them all out and my back felt so much looser afterwards, so she did a brilliant job! Next i had a facial which made my skin feel really fresh and soft and. I was very impressed that Hannah was very knowledgeable, i assumed i had a few whiteheads on my face, she told me straight away its Milia and its very common and how to get rid of them. Lastly i had a manicure and polish, they use OPI polish and there was a good selection of colors available, so its almost been a week now and only minor chips on the tips of a few nails. Hannah told me to take my car keys out before she put the polish on, after the polish was applied she passed me my keys and put my bag on my shoulder for me so that my nails wouldn't get ruined, which was very sweet of her. All in all it was a fabulous experience, and I've found my new local masseuse. Can't find any fault, or negative things to say , so five stars it is!

She is chatty and friendly and good at what she does. My only niggle was that the room was quite cold... and when you're having to remove layers of clothes and lie on a bed with just a blanket over, raising the room temperature is a must! The heater in the room didn't cut the mustard unfortunately. Still, I pointed this out and was compensated with extra blankets which took the bite off, but the building and the sub-zero temperatures outside was the main cause of the problem. Happy to recommend this place to others in the area and, like the other reviewer said, you have to go into the tanning place and up the stairs to get to this. But call to make an appointment and the rest is a breeze.

Unless you walk up the hill directly from the back entrance of the train station, chances are you wouldn't know it's there. However, as its been running for years I always see the same regular faces which shows they have a good clientele base. There are 5 stand up sunbeds available, and I think there is a lay down one too but I've never used that one. I have to admit, these are not the strongest sunbeds I've ever been on but I think if you're a first time tanner or a regular user then this salon would be a good place to build a gradual tan. Before you go in the sunbed, on your left you'll find a range of face cleaning products, hair bobbles (one for the girls) and some goggles. They also sell a range of tanning creams which will prolong your tan so definitely worth asking about these if you pop in. The girl on the front desk always smiles and says hello even when I'm just walking by to go to work.

They are knowledgeable about the products, and always upsell where possible without being pushy. They do stand up, and lie down tanning beds as well as spray tanning here. I always opt for the spray tan, as I'm very consious that using sun beds would probably play havoc with my ultra sensitive skin! I would recommend the Mystic tan which can be sprayed in a range of shades. This is an automatic spray booth that you step into, is very easy to use and has voice activated instructions. The ladies are always on hand if you have any questions, and explain everything very clearly if you are unsure what to do. The tanning shop is in a great location, behind the back entrance of New Street train station and therefore is right in the city centre. They also have offers available on a regular basis. They always have booking slots available for a time that is convenient to me, and there is a good footfall of customers throughout the time I am there. All in all, if you are looking for a sun kissed look I would pay this shop a visit!

Then I had to put on some very attractive paper pants before the lady started to wrap me up using lots of bandages that had been soaked in what can only be described as a clay like substance. They were left on for around 60 minutes whilst I was left to lay on the bed and relax. Afterwards I was measured again and I had lost a combined total of 5 inches from different parts of my body. Very impressive.

I've had one or two wax treatments from Julie, who chat's to you like an old friend throughout. Julie also offers an array of other services; massage, including aromatherapy, and facials that include treatments for acne, sensitive skin, anti ageing or something simply to hydrate tired skin. There is also the option of hand and feet care including the obligatory manicures and pedicures although that's not my thing. There are also tanning treatments and products to available, all of which you can discuss with Julie.
