The guides: your corner to get informed, learn and decide wisely.
What people ask us and search for online, explained simply
Wellbeing · 22 September 2026Relaxing or deep-tissue massage: how they differ and which to ask forThey don't differ in how hard they are, but in what each one is for: one brings the tone of the whole body down and the other goes to a specific area. How to know which is yours before you call — and why it's fine if you get the name wrong.
Beauty · 22 September 2026Micropigmentation of brows and lips: you can have both done, but not at the same timeYou can have both, but not on the same day, and the order matters. Why you start with the eyebrows, how long you have to wait for the lips and what the lip has that the eyebrow doesn't.
Hair · 15 September 2026Keratin on your hair: what the salon one does that the bottle from the shop doesn'tThe keratin mask works. The thing is, it does something different from salon keratin, and mixing the two up is what leads to disappointment.
Hair · 8 September 2026After a straightening treatment or keratin: the first few weeks decide how long it lastsA straightening treatment that lasts six months and one that's gone in three weeks are often the same work. What changes is what happens in your shower over the following days.
Hair · 8 September 2026Highlights and colour at home: what works and what only gets fixed in the salonThere are things from a supermarket kit that come out perfectly, and there are others that then mean three trips to the salon. The line isn't where people think it is.
Hair · 8 September 2026Dyed hair: which shampoo and which care routine really make the colour lastColour doesn't fade on its own: hot water carries it off, as does daily washing and a shampoo that cleans more than it needs to. What really makes a difference at home, and where it stops being about the shampoo.
Hair · 1 September 2026Ammonia-free dye: whether it covers grey just as well and how it differs from the usual oneThe question we get most over the phone, and it comes from a confusion: “ammonia-free” doesn't mean what almost everyone thinks it means, and it certainly doesn't mean it'll last you less time.
Wellbeing · 1 September 2026Foot reflexology: what you really feel in a session, and what you don'tWhat exactly is done to the foot, what you'll feel when you get up from the couch and what the evidence says when you look at it closely. Including what it doesn't do, which is the part almost nobody tells.
Beauty · 28 August 2026Hair by hair eyebrow micropigmentation: what it is and how long it really lastsWhat exactly is done, what you'll see in the mirror each week as it heals —including the days when it looks like it's gone— and how long it holds before needing a touch-up.
Hair · 28 August 2026Highlights: how long they really last and how often they need touching upThe question isn't how long they last, because the colour doesn't fade: it grows. What decides how often you come back isn't fashion, it's the gap between your roots and whatever you've had done on top.
Beauty · 25 August 2026Facial radiofrequency: what it really does and how it differs from the home kindHome devices have left a lot of people arriving with their suspicions. They're neither a con nor the same thing: the difference is in the power, in the temperature control and in who looks at your skin before the machine is switched on.
Beauty · 25 August 2026Diode laser hair removal: whether it hurts, how many sessions you need and who shouldn't have it doneThe three questions we're always asked before we start, answered without beating around the bush: what you really notice, how many sessions you need and in which cases we'll tell you no.We don't have a guide on that yet. Just ask us: call us on 962 065 450 and we'll tell you about it.
