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.

Bloke grooming is ALL the rage now! Mint is the ideal place to visit to keep your eyebrows at bay. I had my set tidied up within 5 minutes and for only £8.50, I was pretty happy with the service too. They also offer beauty treatments, nails service and spray tans. Ideal location near to New Street and the Bullring. You don't have to book in advance, and can just call in, but you may have to wait a short while. Overall a great service.

They have a lot of regular customers and due to the central location, they also get many passers by popping in for a quick touch up or replacement nail. I've had full nail extensions done here a few times which tends to take just under 1 hour.

The girls are always really chatty which is just what you need when you're treating yourself to having your nails done.

So I went along with a thumb nail broken way down by my cuticle and said what can they do. I wanted BIAB but on my thumb they put acrylic to help make it stronger. We have all been going there ever since and that was about 6 months ago now. They are always busy no matter what time of day which says a lot for them. I had a discount card which kicked in on my 5th visit A nice gesture for loyalty. Everyone chats to each other whilst having their nails done it's a lovely atmosphere always.

I had my nails done for a wedding, and they lasted for over three weeks before a change- and my job is hands on. Nail wise, they do gel and acrylic in upwards of 60 colours, extensions, glitter, crystals and ladies who can do nail art. In the manner of procedures, eyelashes, brows, I'm fairly certain that they do tanning too, and the owner, Dawn is trained up in laser removal.

I've been in this beauty salon once before and it was a fairly pleasant experience. I wouldn't say it was my best overall experience out of all the nail beauty salons I've been too but it was terrible either. I waited for just under 5 minutes before having my nails done. That to me is not too long to wait; as I've been in other stores where I've had to wait much longer than that. The service I received was average. I didn't really have much conversation with the staff but sometimes there really isn't much to talk about; you'd rather just get whatever you want and walk out. Overall, I was satisfied with the service I received but I'm not sure if I'd go there again because I've had my nails done better at other salons across Birmingham.

Utopia is, well, pretty much Utopia as far as beauty and tanning in Birmingham is concerned…read more They're a cut about the rest of the beauty salons that I know. Of course, the prices do reflect this, but not too steeply, which is great. They are quite ahead of their time with various treatments as well, which makes you feel like they really are experts in their field. I feel it's time I talked about bikini waxing. Here, it's quite an art form. They even have a little chart that you can look at to see what you want, and all styles have names. I suppose some haircuts have names (the 'bob', the 'pageboy, the 'Rachel') so why not hair in, ahem, other places? They also have Peron Rigot Comfort Hot Wax, which reduces the pain of normal wax. Like I said - a cut about the rest.

As well as the available sunbeds, they have a few packages available which allow you to pay for a set of treatments; such as full body waxing (perfect if you're going on holiday) at a reduced rate which saves you lots of money whilst you relax and are made beautiful. They sell a lot of the beauty products that they use to do some of the treatments so if you find something that you like it's definitely worth asking if they have them in stock and available to buy.

I normally just file and paint my nails myself. However, as it was a special occasion I decided to…read moretreat myself to a full manicure. When I arrived, I was seated on a small table in the corner and the lady took my previous nail varnish off. Next she filed my nails into the desired shape and began the full manicure. The inside décor was pleasant, it was quite neutral although some of the posters on the wall looked dated and slightly off putting. There were some nail varnishes and similar products available for sale but I always feel they can be over priced in salons so I didn't purchase any. The woman who was doing my nails wasn't overly chatty but the service was quick and my nails looked better than ever.

Those that know me, know I love getting my nails done. I've been to a number of places in…read moreBirmingham and people are always asking where to go so I'd though I'd expand on my knowledge and check out Nails 4 U on Corporation Street. It's right down at the end, close to the Children's Hospital and Boston Tea Party. It's quite small inside. There's seating in front of you as you enter and there are three tables where you can get your nails done on the left hand side. They also do waxing (cannot comment much more on that) which they do at the back of the shop behind a curtain. There's also a hairdressers downstairs. I went on a Friday afternoon around 3.30pm and they managed to fit me in immediately. It got busy around 4.30pm and a queue did start to form. The gentleman that did my nails, prepped them very well. It doesn't look like I had infills which can be the case sometimes as the nail starts to grow. However, I had a replacement nail put on and its wonky. I didn't notice at the time but I'd be concerned if I was getting a full set here. That's not where the bad news stops. The nail varnish. I knew something was going to go wrong when the gentleman didn't understand that I just wanted the tips of my nails painted. My nails are rather long and he initially put just only about 5mm of varnish on. I had to ask for more twice. Most people when they do the tips, paint the nail then 'tidy it up' with nail varnish remover and a brush. That did not happen here. I hate being mean to people but I was not happy at all. The varnish was painted on in a straight line, it was lumpy and it was so thick at one point I thought there was more nail varnish on than acrylic! The cost for this was £16 which is about right, if not a little cheaper than some other places, but I was very unhappy with the varnish and my wonky nail, even though the prep was very good. This could be down to who served me but it's put me off for life.
