ProAcu is a fantastic and outstanding clinic. Dr Ding is excellent and has helped me massively with…read moremy headaches and neck and jaw pain. Dr Ding in addition to my main concerns has managed to help with my stomach pains and bloating, which I hadn't even mentioned. I am blown away with how much better I feel. I have had plenty of massage as well and she is amazing. The staff are extremely professional, friendly and welcoming. Especially Annie who mans the desk and all the appointment bookings, she is so friendly. I highly recommend this clinic and excellent value too.

This place is by far the best waxing place I have found yet in London. The girls actually know how…read moreto wax AND a few can do eyebrows quite well. Highly recommended. Also-- the location seems very random (right by Archway tube station) but it's by far the best place I have found in zone 1 and 2!

I was desperate for a Hollywood and upper leg wax so tried The Retreat one Sunday. It's merely…read more5-minutes walk from Archway station, which admittedly isn't the most attractive of areas. And neither was the salon reception. It was dark and gloomy and really needed a lift and tidy. The treatment room was nice but very, very narrow; bordering claustrophobic. The job was done fine - I've had better and worse waxes, and this was average. The beautican (middle aged, Greek lady) was very quiet for the first 30 mins, but then we got nattering and she seemed very nice. I already knew how much my treatments were going to come to, but £43 (£25 Hollywood, £18 half leg) is still a shock when you hear it. It really is astonishing that waxing costs so much. Yet, although not cheap, it's not expensive compared to the majority of central London salons, hence the salon still gets a 3* rating. Especialy since my appointment was on a Sunday, and it's generally quite hard to find a salon open then.

Alright soo I'm a bit biased as my best friend works here. However, this is one beauty spa that I…read morereally trust. I've had my nails done here and experienced a thorough waxing experience. Danielle was my waxer and she was very professional. The overall experience was as pleasant as possible given how painful waxing is! She even did a great job with my eyebrows. I didnt want much off on my eyebrows--just a shape-up--and she followed my rough guidelines and did exactly what I had asked. She was also able to deal with how nervous I was about the whole waxing process. I will be returning to Bijou for all my beauty needs! They are purely awesome!

Lovely place with lovely staff. Especially Collin (with the curly hair) whose the most kind and…read moreaccommodating person! They did my highlights very well and always do!

I have booked directly 6 sessions laser package for the full legs at the Sultan Hair & Beauty…read moreClinic which I paid upfront in total. Today (29th April) I went there for my final session which didn't happen because I was asked by the manager to pay 50£ extra for it otherwise the beautician wouldn't touch me. The beautician I met today was different from the one I had all the other treatments with and she found a paper note saying that I missed an appointment on the 15th April, that was a mistake as I never had an appointment on that day. I showed the manager all the texts with the appointment reminder to prove I never had an appointment on that date and that my schedule must have been mistaken with someone else and despite obvious evidence the manager asked me to pay initially 50£ extra and then he lowered it to 30£, however that was just an excuse to get more money out of me because of a mistake they made at their end. As I didn't want to pay the additional fee I was forced to leave the clinic without my last treatment completed. I strongly discourage you from booking anything with this clinic as they are too full of themselves to admit their mistakes and look for excuses to gain more money from customers instead of fulfil their agreement as a business.
