I'd tried everything i could to stop, but i even got used to the taste of the horrible stuff you paint onto your nails which is meant to taste so horrible you won't even think about putting your lips near what was left of your cuticles. I was going strong for about 2 weeks, when i was walking past Creations with my boyfriend who said that if i kept it up for a month then he'd treat me. Perfect idea. I managed for over a month and took a trip to Creations to get my nails done professionally. I was so excited to finally have nails and there were so many other options, patterns, colours and styles to choose from that i was a bit overwhelmed and opted for the safe bet of the French Manicure. It wasn't terribly expensive, and there are great set deals in Creations which give you the chance to have four different parts of your body pampered for only £20.

I've just moved to the area so decided to try out the salon to have Shellac nails…read more Initially they looked lovely and I was really pleased but the next day they started to all chip. I called up to let them know I had lots of chips in the gel- a few of them I actually had to remove as they had curled up so much and were catching on things. The gentleman on the phone said to pop back in to have them fixed. I was working away so came in at the earliest opportunity which was under a week to have them fixed. I've had shellac done many times before and had no problem but this was just such a terrible job as all but about three nails had chipped very badly. The lady in the shop said that as a week passed there was nothing they could do unless I paid to have them done again. I explained that the shellac hadn't even lasted a weekend without chipping very badly. The attitude of the staff was very abrupt, mean and rude and made me feel really uncomfortable. In the end they begrudgingly removed the rest of the shellac but said they again would only fix the shellac if I paid more money. I really felt this was unfair as I had paid initially for such a faulty job and didn't want to end up paying again for it to possibly happen again. The whole experience was really unpleasant and upsetting and I definitely wouldn't want to repeat it. Before visiting the salon, a friend had told me that they had a terrible attitude but I thought it best to give them the benefit of doubt. However I do regret that now.

The layout: The building is oddly laid out there is a pretty shop downstairs and the actual salon is 4 floors up! There are signs that point to reception being upstairs. When i was having my massage all i could hear was the floor upstairs creaking which was not very relaxing! Negatives: when i found the reception i waited 15 minutes to be welcomed, a young lady said hello and left me there and i presume the owner/manager came and made me feel a bit uncomfortable stating no one knew i was there and they had been waiting for me.....hmm man your reception desk then i was thinking, but being ever polite..i didnt say that. Wasnt the ideal welcome to Icandy i had been hoping for-does annoy me when business make the client feel at fault. Regardless it was a mostly positive experience. i think i will be going again they have lots of different treatments that other salons don't offer and the eyebrow tidying was really very good.

Having endured several cruel asides about my orange palms, streaky knees, brown cuticles and crusty, muddy elbows, when I was due to be bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding I decided to call in the experts. But, knowing I was attending a wedding in a visible role with my dearest friends (and harshest critics), I decided arriving the mahogany tone of David Dickinson or the orange hue of an Oompa Loompa was not desirable. I trawled the websites of Bristol's beauty salons and decided it was best to avoid the San Tropez nightmare. I Candy does a really good range of airbrush tans, so I plumped for them. Yes you do have to drop trou and don the paper panties, but I promise you, you won't end up looking like Ross from friends. The result was so good and realistic that I decided to go with them on my own wedding day. I was somehow also persuaded to go for bio-sculpture gel on my finger and toe nails and, desperate to be the perfect bride, I agreed. However, I found it to be a really destructive force on my nails. The woman at the salon did assure me the layers would come off with a strong remover but that was not the case. And when I did finally get them off, the nails underneath where like brittle, wrinkled grapes. It's taken six months for them to recover. So, I would say go here for spray tans, but not for nails. They do do a range of other treatments from the more invasive treatments like skin tag removal, electrolysis and teeth crystals to the more standard like main-pedis, waxing and facials. The only other treatment I've used is waxing, which was fine and I'm sure many of the other treatments would be. But the salon is a bit shabby inside and I think the service could be better and more personal.
