Response from Fox Hair Design - Barwell
Moria, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I am sorry that you experienced a number of issues and felt the need to bring them to my attention.
Let me go through these for you and give an explanation. I can assure you that this is not a case of me "needing to get my finger out". Looking at your record card you bill was £111 for services and £11 for retail items. For the services that you received, root colour, partial highlights, olaplex and a cut & finish we believe this represents excellent value for money. However, I take your points on board and apologise that your visit wasn't up to our normal excellent level of service.
1. The commercial coffee machine is under a maintenance contract, and has been looked at twice in recent weeks. The part required is out of stock. This has been ordered but is coming from the manufacturer overseas. A fire at the factory has caused a delay in production. We are offering a far from limited hot drinks menu: coffee prepared with freshly ground beans from my own bean to cup (from home), decaffeinated coffee served in a cafetière, hot chocolate, and a selection of teas including english breakfast, earl grey, decaffeinated, peppermint, blueberry, lemon & ginger, rooibos, camomile to name but a few. The only thing we have no facility for at present is steaming milk for cappuccino or latte.
2. The property is mixed use, there are two flats on the first floor and a neighbouring commercial property. By law all fire detectors within the property have to be linked. If the alarm sounded in the salon, it is likely that it was caused by a tenant in the properties above. I will ask the managing agents to investigate when they reopen. We can silence the alarm in the salon by pressing and holding the button, similar to a domestic smoke alarm.
3. Hot water, I can but apologise. We have a 180 litre hot water tank specifically designed for hair salons. , I have visited the salon following your feedback; the hot water tank has two emersion heating elements, one of the timers appeared to be showing the wrong time, presumably following a power outage. This has now been reset and both heating elements are working simultaneously.
Should you wish to contact me further regarding your visit please email me at [email protected] or telephone 01455 245245
