My new go-to for amazingly radiant skin. Mimi is her name! To tell you the truth...I don't really…read morewant to tell anyone about this. Thing is... It's a very quiet salon. I can most of the time call, to be squeezed in on that same day. CACI with all the right products. (Caci is a method to strengthen your muscles to tighten them. To get rid of wrinkles...get it? No Botox! No!) I've never been a big facial fan. But, for these girls, I'll keep coming back. It's amazing. She really looks at what my skin needs that day. Mimi fires up the CACI machine and starts buzzing away. An idea if the price? 1 hr for £47. In Caci world that's very good. I'll be back next week!! ...if not in 2 days?! E*

The atmosphere was nice and the staff was really attentive. I requested a haircut that was certainly a bit of a change and the stylist was confident and did a nice job. It's not easy to find somewhere that you can trust with your hair, but I'd definitely go back to Cobella if I received another offer. Paying full price, I'm not so sure.

Ninety minutes later I came out with plump, moist, glowing skin. The sun damage, alas is still there, but is far less of a feature than it was.

While the treatments are a little on the steeper end (probably because they are located in Kensington) I think it is well worth the treat. I believe it is Marcela herself who runs the front of house and my is this place organized!

The girls working here are efficient and professional and the atmosphere is relaxing. Go with your girlfriends for an afternoon treat! Ok, even updating the review because this place is so good and professional... Went back again and again and although pricey I don't think you will find better in London, and I would know!

I've been on the search for a good manicure place in my areas on London. I judge a good manicure on…read morewhether I could do one better myself. At Marcela's 'you get what you pay for' definitely applies. I walked in for a Shellac manicure and walked out with an Artistic manicure (think they're similar). It was not cheap, £50, but for a manicure that lasts me three weeks and took over an hour to do, I think it is almost justified. My therapist did an awesome job. Very neat, very careful and she shaped my nails to the exact shape I asked for. The gel was applied very precisely with no ragged edges, something that has happened elsewhere when I've had shellac done. She also didn't hack away at my cuticles and the skin around my nails, which is a real bugbear of mine: I don't have a lot of excess cuticle, why cut for the sake of cutting? I rate this place in spite of the cost. Tip: they are always book up so worth calling ahead.

This place is a disgrace. I have never ever seen anything like it. Eventhough my appointment was…read moremade and pre-paid upon showing up a very unfriendly staff told me that my hairdresser is not there and no one will be able to do my hair. I have insisted for someone to cut my hair as it was my last day before i was meant to fly to France for my 1st anniversery and for heaven's sake it was paid and travelled from the other side of London. Staff only spoke very broken english and they have never heard of customer service. I ended up wasting £10 on travel and have left very upset. This salon is not managed by anyoone, the hairdressers (who are very dodgy) rent the chairs from a landlord. Please i am begging you steer clear of this place as it will only disappoint you!

Had a brilliant haircut at Drakes today. Although living in the area for the past few years, I'd…read morenever been... until today. The hairdresser who cut my hair (I forgot his name, sorry!) was super friendly, approachable and easy to chat with (and I normally find small talk forced). I got a standard haircut ("hair styling") and they did a great job if I may say so myself. I also got a free shave (just with a trimmer instead of a full wet shave which would have been £30) and a 10% thanks to Yelp! One thing that would really make Drakes 5 stars is if they improved their entrance / waiting room. When you enter you're not sure which room to go to (there are two, excluding the waiting room which is in the back). I had to ask for help from a hairdresser who set up an appointment and when I came back instructed me to the waiting room. It was also a bit strange and informal (an employee was having a beer in there... nothing wrong but I would have loved one too!). All in all. Good haircut even if it's slightly on the expensive side.

The staff are friendly and attentive and there's enough services here to satisfy the vainest of men (both gay and straight). Geared primarily towards straight guys (I'm gay myself but don't mind the fact they have Soccer AM on in the waiting area and the copies of GQ), it's a great place to get a haircut or indulge in one of their facials. I regularly get my haircut here by a guy, who, I have to say has given me some of the best haircuts ever. I've also had a facial and manicure here, which were both amazing. It was my first time and I was made to feel relaxed and comfortable. I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep on the table. Prices are fairly high, but not unreasonable. Ask for a loyalty card, as you may get hooked, and the eleventh haircut is free!

*******Warning from Doctor about this place Very…read moreunprofessional and rude staff . Very poor unprofessional customer service with negligence . They used to be good 10 years ago but they are far beyond all professional and ethical standards. No wonder the recent poor reviews and no wonder their desperation by reducing their prices and sending offers ,to attract customers . One of the receptionists at Earl's court named Bella is rude .she talking to her colleague while I was talking with her ! I contacted Headoffice who promised better customer service and professionalism however ,this person continued to be rude . I called to book massage and enquired to use one of the vouchers they provide to loyal customs but she laughed ! I was very offended from such rude and unprofessional behavior .  My understanding is that you offer the vouchers to your loyal customer when they purchase package to use them and I never used any of the 5 vouchers ,so anyone would expect from a presumable professional salon to deal with  customers in a respectful ,decent and professional manner ,rather than such disgusting and offensive behavior ! I contacted the head office again about this person's rude and unprofessional behavior but no acknowledgement or apology !!! They used to be good 10 years ago but obviously they fell very short of the required professional and ethical standards ! As such ,I was honored to go this place again and applied for a charge back through my bank for a refund of all prepaid massages . Avoid and better go to a professional place . 0/5
