Eversince I moved back to Manila, I've tried and tested many different salons and colorists and there was always an issue of either one of the following: price, location, quality and consistency of service, and ambiance. I found a really good colorist and stylist before but unfortunately, the salon was too much out of the way for me. I'm usually not so fussed when I go to the salon and I know I just need my touch ups and usual haircut (no need for haute couture or cutting edge styles, for now), a good manicure and pedicure, and other services like hair treatments, threadding, and foot spa. At Piandre, I found all the elements and treatments that make me a return customer almost every week. I found my colorist and hair stylist who doesn't feel the need to gossip or chatter my ears off. I found my manicure and pedicure therapists who cut and treat my nails very well and with care, and i found a salon that has a QUIET ROOM. I think this is one of my favorite things about this place. In the middle of the crazy mall and a bustling salon, you have an oasis of serenity where you can have a mani-pedi, foot spa, and even massage. No noise, just the gentle zen music and relaxing chairs. The receptionists are also very friendly and already know the kind of services I enjoy. I must also add that the energy and aura of the people who work here is refreshingly positive and good-natured. They told me that the owner encourages spirituality and good values and I think that's just a plus that makes me come back and even refer it to family and friends! Make sure to call ahead for an appointment as they are usually booked. read more
