    12/15/2018: I woke up early so, I may have my hair washed, given a hair treatment, blown dry, and…read morestyled for my daughter's wedding today-appointment was at 9:45 but, I decided I should arrive earlier. The entire procedure took about 1 hour~cool. First, my hair was washed then, the hair treatment was applied onto my hair. Afterwards, I climbed up to the second floor where the hair treatment's intense heat machine location is and sat underneath the machine for about twenty to thirty minutes. Meanwhile, I'm served hot coffee and biscuits. As soon as the hair treatment machine turned itself off, the hair stylist escorts me downstairs and rinses the hair treatment: My hair felt moisturized and not brittle unlike before the hair treatment, my hair felt thin, lackluster, egregiously dried out from enduring the cold weather. The hairstylist, Tanya has my hair blown dry and styled: My hair appears amazingly healthy and my hairstyle is appropriate for attending my daughter's wedding. I removed a star due to when it was time paying for the hair treatment and styling, The Work's credit card machine became inoperative: Which meant-I had to leave my Pacsafe bag hunting down an ATM Machine withdrawing cash and paying for the services renderred. BTW: I had to hunt down the credit union's ATM which was inoperative then, I ran the opposite way finding a Barclay's Bank ATM machine diagonally across the street from The Works' Salon. Upon returning with cash in hand, the owner was calling credit card machine repair having the credit machine fixed! FYI: Go to the Barclay's Bank ATM machine should The Works' credit card machine becomes inoperative again! Oy-Evay . . . Eye-Roll.

    I went to see Karthika for a brazilian wax this morning and I can honestly say it was one of the…read morebest, if not THE best wax I've had in my whole 7 years of waxing. She uses hard wax, which is virtually painless and gives way better results than strip wax - I totally recommend that you try it if you've only experienced strip wax. She was so professional, quick and thorough (went over strays with tweezers afterwards, made sure I was 100% happy before I left) and was chatty with such a warm nature- totally put me at ease and I'm sure it made it hurt less than normal as well. I got the impression that she's had a lot of experience in brazilian waxing, which is always a good thing. She is definitely my person to go to in London for waxing now; the place is only a 5min walk from Elephant & Castle station and even if you're not from around the SE area (I'm not), it's 100% worth the trek. Can't wait to go back and try the other treatments! Go here and you will be pleasantly surprised with the brilliant treatment and results....oh, did I mention it was only £20?
