Looking like an iced fairy tale cake with its pink turret, it seems a suitable place to get your…read morelocks chopped. Inside they continue with a glamour/boudoir theme with chandeliers, pink bows and flock wallpaper. I've had Natalie cut my hair here, and she was very nice and gentle handed. She listened carefully to what I wanted and double checked before cutting which was reassuring. Linda has cut my fringe here and she also did a great job. Both ladies seem to know everyone who comes in - and it is a busy salon as there wasn't a gap for two days when I called for an appointment. They also seem to be a favourite in the area to cut children's hair but don't worry if you have come here to relax - there is a firm notice on the door stating that children must be quiet and under control! It is certainly relaxing here, they keep the local radio on low. Aside from the hairdressers you can also get a massage and waxing of various hairy bits done here. The back rooms are split up into little modules for each of the treatments. Prices for haircuts are very good - I paid £16 for a wet cut and £2 for a quick fringe trim.

Right, from the outside Ambertone really doesn't look like anything special, and if anything it…read morelooks tacky, run down and slightly dodgy... however don't let this deceive you as Ambertone is a great example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover as they have loads of offer and actually have some really good services! This place is a health and beauty spa, as well as an aerobics gym, and is particularly geared towards a female audience in the fishponds area. It is a small building, but they definitely have a good variety of things to suit everyone's needs. They have toning tables to help you keep fit, and offer massages, facials, skin care, slimming products, spray tans, waxing, manicures, piercing, and the list goes on... pop along or check out their website for a full list of what's available. Their prices are also very reasonable, and would be cheaper than anywhere in the city centre making it worth popping along to Fishponds. If you are after an aerobics gym that's women only, instead of being surrounded by men, then its also a great option as they have classes and gym equipment on the upper floor that you can have access to. I'd recommend the place and it's actually a great find, give it a go!

I had my nose pierced here in May. Was advised to come back 4 weeks later to get the bar changed to…read morea smaller one once it had healed, which I did (with a very frosty reception). The bar was put in and was too long, which I advised of at the time. I was told that it was absolutely fine. When sitting flush against the outside of my nose (where it should be) it touched the inside of my nose, and it's natural position is sticking out of my nose by a few centimetres, which looks ridiculous. It has also caused two separate infections, with a lot of puss and blood coming out of the piercing). I have tried to get a resolution from the manager with no luck whatsoever, I recommend avoiding this place of you want a decent job done with your piercing (as you'd expect from a professional service).

I don't really enjoy having my hair washed at the hairdressers so I prefer to opt for somewhere…read morereasonably priced that will cut my hair dry. Reflections in Fishponds offer this service so I have been using them for a couple of years now. They provide a good service there - they are polite when you go in and when you have an appointment I have never been left waiting longer than 5 minutes after I am supposed to be booked in (I find some hairdressers are terrible at this and it isn't something I would put up with more than once). Obviously all stylists are different but I have found with the girls I've had cut my hair there, if you want to talk they will, but if you want to be quiet for a bit they don't jabber on at you about themselves (another pet hate of mine!) Every haircut I've had there has been good, from junior stylist to top stylist, though I could really tell the difference when I had the top stylist so it may be worth the extra few quid if you're having something more than a light trim. Overall, I have been very impressed and at a very reasonable price.

Nothing really wowed me about the whole experience, usually when I get my hair cut at other places I feel really happy and relaxed after I see the outcome but this time it was not the case.

I have been a regular customer over the years but recently moved to WSM. I have over the past 6 months tried to find a salon near to me that offers the same high level of customer service, professionalism and high standards of treatments that Victoria's salon offers. As a treat I booked myself in for over 3 hours of worth of treatments and pampering. I have had a wonderful day and look forward to see you all next month (as I am coming back....!) nothing in WSM even comes close to your services. Thank you

They stock and use Tigi products so you will go home smelling soooo good. I believe its a tactic to placate your boyfriend for taking so long/spending so much money on your hair because he'll just be smelling your hair the whole night and forget. Not that this is expensive - about average at £25-30 for full cut and blow dry. I hate hairdryers and they remember that every time so I just have a wet cut which is a bit cheaper. Only complaint is the R&B soundtrack, but I guess that's for par for the course in most hairdressers these days... Find this hairdressers at the top of the high street just before Straits Parade.

I had also paid 15 quid for the hair extensions as a deposit but never went back to have them fitted as A. i had to have all my hair cut off and B. I was disgusted with the service.

If you do get a cut here ask for one of the more experienced girls - the junior stylists are really young and haven't learnt customer care as yet. When having my hair dyed here, I overheard one saying "why would anyone dye their hair that colour?" to another which really is just rude. It's my choice what colour I go and I'm paying you to do it, so keep the chatter out the back by the kettle kids.
