The Essentials Beauty Salon

It was great to have my nails sparkle and shine again with Andrea today after all this time. Andrea and the staff at Castle Bromwich were very professional as usual and made me feel very welcome and safe with the COVID procedures that have been put in place. Having been a regular for many years I was however a little concerned with the extra COVID safe charge that customers will now have to pay in addition of their treatment charge for every visit. This extra charge may mean I will have to reduce the frequency of my appointments at the salon. I do understand why this is being charged but feel it is too much for every visit when other salons are not doing this.

First visit to The Essentials Beauty Salon but it won’t be my last. Felt completely safe from the booking to leaving with my nails done.

Another great experience at this gem of a salon. I was made to feel welcome and received a brilliant service from Laura. My nails continue to look fabulous. Thank you ladies, I’m so pleased that what I heard about you all is true and only wish I had come in years ago.

Great to be back!! Nicole was fantastic as always!!!

I was very impressed with the treatment I had at Essentials today. I was filled with confidence before arriving after receiving an email and txt regarding safety and providing a safety video so I knew exactly what to expect. They have implemented lots of safety precautions but I still felt the personal touch. The experience was as lovely as before and I was happy to be able to safely get a spray tan. Laura was friendly as always and made me comfortable and was a wonderful beautician as always. I will definitely be returning and I've left feeling much better about myself and feel I have had a spray tan safely.

Laura did a lovely job of my nails today. All the ladies do a great job, they never disappoint.

I had a wonderful treatment.

Really good Covid safety procedures in place. Excellent treatment and friendly staff

First visit back to The Essentials since lockdown, any apprehensions I may have had disappeared the second I arrived. All appropriate safety measures put in place. I had my own mask in my bag but these are provided and gel is available for both clients and staff. The girls were as friendly and welcoming as ever. Andrea made me feel relaxed throughout my treatment and I’d definitely recommend the collagen gloves upgrade to anyone have shellac. My hands are so soft. It was lovely to be pampered again. Thank you.

Lovely massage to welcome myself back to this lovely Salon. Felt very safe and clean. Thank you xxx

It felt fantastic to be back in the salon today, Emma and the team have gone above and beyond to make clients feel safe. Excellent treatment and the salon was spotless as usual. Thanks Emma for bringing some normality back to life!

Nicole was amazing as always! It was so nice to be back after lockdown!

As always fabulous treatments and service, no need to worry about cleanliness here - second to none!

After my hands became dry and neglevted during the lockdown I decided to treat myself to a manicure and mini pedicure. The salan is so welcoming and the girls are so friendly and knowledgable. Laura made a wonderful job of my nails and my hands and feet feel pretty again. Thankyou for my treat x

I visited the salon today for a shellac on my fingers. Sarah -Ann was really helpful advising me on colour. She also recommended a hand treatment using a collagen sock. The results were amazing , and have made such a difference to the effect anti bac and constant washing has had on my hands.
Thank you so much , for a moment of normality in a safe and caring environment

Had leg wax today, spotless clean room. All covid 19 precautions in place. Made to feel comfortable and welcomed.

Very good manicure carefully done. Shellac polish applied beautifully. I am very pleased.

I’m so happy to be back at the salon! Nicole has always provided amazing service ☺️

I know I work at the salon and have regular fabulous massages. But I have to say this Tropical Bliss was lovely, having the scrub and then massage my skin feels fabulous! It’s so smooth and soft and feeling the most relaxed I’ve felt in a long time. Heavenly...

Excellent, safe service. Lovely to see the salon back in action. Will definitely be back for some pampering.

Friendly and professional

Always super

Normally I book in for facials but with COVID and Borris... that’s not possible right now! So instead I decided to treat myself as I’ve been working throughout these crazy times and opted for a Tropical Bliss and had my toes painted. As always the girls are amazing; so friendly and welcoming and it was lovely to be back and have a catch up! I felt very safe going into the salon and they are going above and beyond to make sure you still have that salon experience even with all the changes!

Was lovely to see the girls again! Everywhere was very COVID secure and clean. Nicole was the best as always! Happy to have my waxing done again!

Fantastic masssge by Nicole, would definitely recommend The Essentials beauty salon. Always feel very welcome each time I visit.

Having no clue what my wife had booked me in for, it was only when shown into the room did I find out. A deep tissue massage. My masseuse was Sarah. I explained the areas that I had issues with so she could concentrate more of an effort on them. She began gently working to quite intense level, though never actually hurting. I am looking forward to the next one. The only disappointment is I'm having to pay for it myself but will do so happily.

Thank you Sarah for the amazing massage- just what I needed!

I cannot recommend this salon enough! Emma and the girls have done an exceptional job in ensuring a safe and secure environment and my recent visit to the salon was as wonderful as always. I have been a regular for two years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else! The girls are always so welcoming and friendly and Emma is an absolute star. My recent Treatment was great - as always - and I’m looking forward to my next visit!

Lovely pedicure with Amy today.... highly recommended! Great procedures in place to keep every one safe.

So happy to be back at the salon, Nicole was her normal happy self and taking all the new procedures in her stride. She did another great job for my bikini line thanks so much Nicole. Salon felt very safe but still inviting. Well done to all the Essentials team your doing a fab job

Brilliant massage. I would like to book for my nails, wax and spray tan, though, whilst happy to pay an additional £5 for my first visit toward the Covid requirements, I feel this is extortionate if applied each visit and would affect my decision making. I would definitely look for an alternative services .

It was good to see everyone today it was a lovely pick me up

A last minute booking for half leg wax today with Laura. Thank you so much for the usual brilliant service and treatment. So good to see Amy and Laura and to see the salon open at last! Also had my patch tests ready for my eyebrows and eyelashes next week! So excited!

Had a lovely manicure and nails painted. Service was ecellant and the staff made it a very safe environment?.

Had a lovely shellac colour put on my names and also tried the collagen hand mask. My hands feel lovely and soft and I love my new nails!! Thank you Laura and Essentials x

My first time at Essentials. Nice to meet the girls at last after working next door for so long. Had a lovely pedicure by lovely Laura. My feet feel amazing. Felt very safe in the salon, very well organised. Thank you so much xx

Excellent service as usual from Sarah-Ann. I was really impressed with the post COVID set-up. I felt very safe, the salon felt very safe and clean. Keep going girls

Lovely and professional with all the right measures in place for COVID. Amy listened to my reasons for a massage and ensured I was comfortable throughout. Thanks a lot.

It has been so long since I was able to feel this pampered! I have been needing a wax since the start of lockdown and Sarah did not disappoint. As usual, she was so welcoming when I entered the salon and everyone was so clear on the new procedures. The treatment was fab and I left the salon feeling fresh and beautiful!

Very good massage, friendly and professional staff, on point with corona virus requirments.

First time attending Castle Bromwich salon and I was met with the same friendly customer service and professionalism as at Coleshill. I received advice about the condition of my nails and cuticles and opted for gel overlay which was applied both beautifully and carefully and then topped with tutti fruitti shellac polish. fabulous, thank you very much :)

Nice to be pampered again! Fab massage and pedicure. Back to have brows done on Saturday!?

So lovely to be able to go back to the salon today, everything is well organised and super clean, it’s still a lovely atmosphere. Laura did me an amazing pedicure and shellac nail art. A lovely relaxing treat, just what I needed. Thank you!

It was great to be back in the salon. Thank you Sarah-Ann for a lovely pedicure and shellac on my toes. My feet feel so nice.

I realised how much I missed Amy working in the tension in my back and shoulders. Really amazing how much better I feel. Booked in for another in 3 weeks. Highly recommended!

Fabulous as always!

Had a lovely pamper this morning. Gel toes. Amy and Angela are such lovely ladies. So friendly. Felt very safe with all the precautions that have been put in place. Thank you x

Thank you for making me feel so comfortable and relaxed during my most enjoyable pedicure and manicure this morning so pleased with the colour too.

Amy, as ever did my manicure and pedicure brilliantly. So happy to be back

Amy was great as always! I was really nervous to come back after lockdown but we chatted the whole time and I felt relaxed and pampered! And hairless! Yayyyy! Thank you :)
