Hair by Elaine of London ~ My Appointment

My appointment at Hair by Elaine of London went amazingly. I ended up arriving half an hour early for my treatment due to my meeting with the bank going pear-shaped (when does it not?). However this was no hassle for the ladies that assisted me. They sat me down and tipped my head back to begin with the wash  and let me just point out here that I am an absolute sucker for scalp massages! Little did I know that I had been seated in an actual massage chair that massaged my whole back throughout the whole wash. What a pleasant surprise!

Thereafter, I was taken to the big scary black chair facing the mirrors of the salon and I squeaked out that I really didn't want them to take too much of my length off as I've been trying to grow it for years! I have tried everything from supplements to sceptical home mix treatments - but the process of getting my hair longer has been painfully slow!

I also showed them photographs of Jessica Biel's fringe and that's when they set to work. When it came to combing my hair forward and snipping the length away to form the fringe I was already completely relaxed about it, I knew that I was in good hands.

The end result looks better than I could have imagined. I am super impressed with the outcome, the service and the price!

My total was R300.00 (incl. wash and blow, trim, fringe and flat iron)

Their whole price list was actually incredibly reasonable! Perhaps it is because working at the spa I am at, connected to a famous 5 star hotel and a luxury location makes our prices crazy expensive for locals but I was really blown away.

Massages for as little as R100.00 (now I can't vouch for their other treatments just yet but what I have experienced, it may as well have been 5 star!)

Top points Elaine. Be proud of your company and staff and keep up the excellent service.
