Odd behaviour from the waxer, inappropriate touching when I had a bikini wax done. Unfortunately it…read morewas my first wax so i was unaware that it was irregular. Since then i have been to other places, although it took a while since the first was such an unpleasant experience. Additional to this the staff seemed unaware that their voices carried in the halls leaving rude comments in the air. Wax was decently fast, but as i say highly unprofessional behaviour from the staff. May be due to the location? But still unwanted, unconsentual touching!

I'm secretly really obsessed with spray tans, I blame my pale lineage and desire to be a person that absorbs sun, instead of being blistered by it. Pale people want to look tan, too. And for us, there are spray tans. And if you find yourself in East London, the spray tan of your dreams lives at Tao Hair & Beauty. A tastefully low key salon just off Great Eastern Street, Tao Hair & Beauty doesn't look like much from the outside. However, as you enter you'll find a very nice shop with friendly staff and great treatments, hardwood floors, super clean surfaces and a variety of options to make you prettier. My kind of place. I can do without the pomp and circumstance that some Shoreditch spas seem to revel in, so Tao is right up my alley and also close to home. Demet was my spray tanner and she was both professional and friendly. This salon uses St. Tropez system which is a good one that looks pretty natural (not orange). The spray tanning area is set up in one of the rooms downstairs and is clean and private. Never spray tanned before? Here are my top tips: Step-by-step guide to airbrush tanning: 1. Make an appointment. 2. Day of or night before: EXFOLIATE. 3. Show up with NO makeup, lotions, deodorant, etc. 4. Go to Tao. 5. Go into room. 6. Strip to your knickers (ok, its a bit personal, get over it). 7. Demet (or other tech) applies airbrush tan, in your selected shade. 8. Dry a bit. 9. Dry a bit more. 10. No exercising or ahem...other sweaty activities for 6-8 hours. Plan accordingly. 11. Shower at least 8 hours later. Bronzer washes off. 12. Beautiful (fake) tan that lasts for a week+ and all of your friends will wonder when you have the time to sunbathe. 13. Remember to moisturize to keep your tan long and strong. 14. Repeat. At 24.99, it's a bargain. I will now look sun-kissed for a week instead of fried to a crisp. Also, no wrinkles! Hasta luego, I'm off to Mexico!

Laura is always flexible and reliable, fitting in appointments around my schedule and coming out to me in Ealing, or to a friends place, depending on where I'm staying. Not only was I thrilled with the end results, but the price was great too. Would certainly recommend Laura's Mobile Beauty Treats to anyone who wants to bypass a salon.

Laura was easily reachable over the phone, very flexible time wise and I got the last minute appointment with her in the afternoon. I have to say that I had few beauty therapists over last few years that did various waxing treatments for me: Laura `s treatment (hollywood) was the quickies and least painful (actually not much pain at all) from all of them. Laura is very easily approachable, friendly and she makes you feel at easy. I will very happily use her service again.

The staff are very friendly and clearly explain the procedure to you but it does seem pretty rushed. I would recommend to get someone to do your tan for you the first time as it felt a bit daunting doing it alone when I'd never done that before! But basically you put barrier cream on your hands and soles of your feet and go into a booth, press the button and hey presto! The tan was pretty even but my hands and feet were very orange, the staff didn't emphasise the importance of the barrier cream enough I don't think as you must have to put a LOT on to stop your hands and feet going orange! Overall, though, it is a great place with very helpful and friendly staff. Would definitely go back there if I had a special occasion I wanted a fake tan for!

Doing your nails there won't break the bank and you can get them done in your lunch break. The last time I went there I got a manicure and pedicure and it cost me £28! You always get offered a drink, well a tea or coffee nothing stronger than that! Plus you will get the music changed to your taste if you ask nicely. They also offer eyebrow shaping and body waxing at very reasonable prices. You can't miss the place with it being pretty much next door to Bruce Grove train station and opposite Iceland, it has a massive sign that stands out in the dark!!

I'm not sure, but i've never encountered such problems elsewhere. The technician next to her was agreeing with her. I found this all rather bizarre and this is not the way a client should be treated. Considering the pedicure cost £40, i was not entirely happy with the job done. Moving onto the manicure, i'm disappointed this cost £26 and the white tip has now gone grey, barely looks like a French manicure anymore! She was unable to do a basic flower design, so i had to wait for another technician to do that part. She seemed very eager for a lunch break and when she finished the manicure she didn't even put moisturizer on my hands which is always the final touch and was rushing me to hurry up and pay!
