Apparu is a very small and intimate shop with a treatment room which makes the experience very personal. The therapist was very experienced, friendly and capable. The only reason I have not rated 5 stars is because I have had some excellent waxists in the past who have been complete perferctionists. However I would recommend apparu for waxing treatments as it is very good value considering the quality and the location.
The atmosphere was relaxed and really friendly and professional beautician. Hot wax was used for everything and wasn't very painful, yet fairly quick. There were a few stray hairs after but overall was very neat. More pricey than hot wax in other places but managed to get a last minute appointment. Would definitely go back if it weren't that bit more expensive than other places I've been.
I had a Himalayan Pedicure with Sophia, it was luxurious! Sophia was careful and thorough and explained after each element what came next. She was friendly and professional and easy to be with - this pedicure is 1:30 so you want to be very comfortable. Voya tea - I had Chamomile - and a head neck and shoulder massage is included - wonderful! The actual pedicure and polish were excellent. This is absolutely worth the cost - try it.
