Could not fault Nicole's spray tan. I went on holiday to Dubai with a beautiful brown glow. I was so impressed with how natural it looked. No patches or streaks, and it still looks lovely a week later. Will certainly be using Essentials salon again, very friendly staff and a beautiful salon. Nicole was very professional and provided a fantastic service. (Loved how simple and easy it was to book online too) thank you!

Had a spray tan and nails with Laura ready for a wedding this wedding. As always, Laura worked her magic on my nails and they looked amazing. Was a little worried if I'd look silly having a spray tan this time of year but just wanted a bit of colour. Laura chose the exact right colour I was after and looked perfect on the day!
