This is the 2nd time I have been there to get my eyebrows done. The lady doing it is great at it which is why I went back. Knocking a star off because of her attitude which could have been polite/friendly. But great work.
Very polite and professional
Great value for money. The only thing is that it was super hot inside the procedures room
This was my first time at Arthee and my last. Honestly the most horrific Hollywood Wax I've ever had. I've had this wax at numerous places a few times and never have I experienced what I have at Arthee. I had an eyebrow thread firstly, I had been growing them out for months and asked her NOT to thin them just shape them, she proceeded to completely thin them - not only thin them but then completely different shapes - I pointed this out and she seemed confused and just not seeing the obvious difference in shape. She adjusted them (thinning one side more) and then there was not much else I could do but just accept. She then went onto wax - after no wax for 5 weeks I was obviously longer down there than usual. She didn't trim or anything. She literally spread the wax all over down there and waxed one after another with no pause between. She did this "to limit pain" and to "be over with quickly". Honestly the most horrific wax I've ever had. I have now 2 days later been in so much pain. Burned completely down there and blood in a few spots. It was also not done thoroughly (hair left in different patches). She didn't apply ANY cooling cream or anything - just some oil. She saw I was in distress too. Literally anyone thinking to go here, it's all well and good for it to be £22 but there's a reason for that!! Avoid this place at all costs. I am now daily applying sudocrem and to top it off hair is already growing back after 2 days meaning she basically ripped the hairs out - improper technique!
Not sure what products they used this time, but my skin is severely hydrated and tight. My face is extremely red and Unhappy, no amount of moisturiser is helping it at the moment. as i was going away for a family wedding I went here, my face and skin is completely ruined and not sure if it will recover by next week.
