My experience at Miss Fox today was just so damn lovely I could pop. After ogling the pictures and…read morereviews for the past year my lovely partner must have realised my desire to go and so he surprised me with a gift voucher - squeeee! I was greeted at the top of the stairs, immediately offered a cup of tea and guided over to the brightest yet most elegant chairs I have ever seen. As I hastily checked in on Yelp I realised I need not fork out my wallet to purchase a glass of champagne - you get a free one when you check-in. Woo! I was treated to a gel polish manicure on my visit and it was simply exquisite - a far cry from my usual manicures that I get from a certain chain store up the road. The whole process was slow but not tedious and incredibly relaxing. I chose my call - a bubbly pink called "fantasy". My manicurist said "Can I show you my favourite pink polish? I think you might prefer it." SHE WAS RIGHT. It was wah-aaaay better than what I chose. We had lovely chats about family and travel while I sipped my champagne and treated my nails. It was just such a lovely experience. Yes, Miss Fox is pricey however it is worth every penny. A voucher to Miss Fox is probably the best gift a gal could ask for.

I've always had a lot of nice things to say about Miss Fox and her classic beauty (both the spa and…read morethe owner herself!) but I had to update my two year old review after getting my first full spa treatment there recently. I have long been sending people here but never had a proper massage myself...thankfully this was rectified with a thoughtful Christmas gift of a Diamond Glow Indulgence Ritual (hot tip for partners: this is a gift where serious brownie points are guaranteed). The spa treatments are up another level, where the mood is even more peaceful again. The music is just right (no awkward woodwinds, whale sounds or tinny oriental music here) and the girls are always on hand to settle you in with tea or champagne. The relaxation massage itself was hands down the best I've had in Melbourne/Australia. I've tried many and always been disappointed, but not here. I have extremely sensitive skin and am allergic to a number of natural products, which means facials make me really nervous and I tend to avoid them. When they're in packages I usually try to swap because when I've had them I couldn't enjoy it, feeling too unsettled about my face tingling or possibly erupting in a nasty rash as the therapist ums and errs awkwardly about whether or not it was ok. The girls at Miss Fox are incredibly professional and my therapist Cassie made me feel completely at ease that she had looked into every ingredient and put together a treatment that was going to be suitable for me. I loved it and my skin feels great, ridding my tricky combination skin of its dry patches without giving me a big breakout. If you're wondering whether it's a worthy treat yourself splurge, it absolutely is. I was relaxed from head to toe and my only regret was coming her in the morning and having to do stuff later in the day instead of sitting around drinking champagne!

She is incredibly professional, friendly, and makes you feel completely comfortable from the moment you walk in. Her attention to detail is amazing, and the results are always flawless.

Endota is slightly hidden away on Flinders Lane towards Spring Street, when approaching you think you are visiting the basement of a huge building. The discreetness is perfect for guys who want to spoil themselves with some relaxation... like for example a pedicure. So I have never had a pedicure but both of my sisters and brother in law swear by them, so I thought for one of my sister's birthdays I would treat her to one and get myself one at the same time. With my other siblings being pedicure aficionados they recommended populars places which were generally 90% female and not so discreet. Endota Melbourne sprang to mind as I was treated to a massage a year back for my birthday using a Red Balloon Voucher (do not recommend these things as they are so painful to use). Let me just say my issues with Red Balloon made me need a massage even more, but thankfully Endota Melbourne were extremely professional and sorted it all out. Ok so back to the pedicure, so the beauticians made both of us feel very much relaxed and the tea they give you before and after is so amazing. My feet have never felt so great, I just feel sorry for the beauticians that had to touch it... :P Will definitely be back to Endota Melbourne!
