I have had Lvl a few times precious and been fortunate enough to receive good results, however after Molly did my LVL treatment in the most professional way, in quick and efficient time, I have to say the results are better than any other, the lift is outstanding, gives my eyes a real pop. Molly explained the aftercare in great detail and knowledge and also advising about a lash serum to keep the hold as long as, highly recommend the salon, girls and Molly.

So had CACI with Emma to usual great standard but the stand out for the day was Laura who multi tasked getting me ready for my Pedi while her other ladies Shellac was drying. Then helping the lady to manoeuvre the steps when she left the salon. It's not all about treatments it's also about how you are cared for and Laura deserves 10/10.
