I have just had a terrible experience at the Tranquility beauty salon on Bellevue Road. I normally get all my waxing done by the lovely Aleesha at Independent Mind Body Soul in Balham but she is away, and the other therapists booked up. I often find it very difficult to get an appointment there. I called Tranquility a few days ago to enquire about hot waxing as that is what I normally have. I was told that there would be no need to use hot wax for a standard bikini line so I decided to give it a shot as I trusted they knew more than I did. How wrong I was. The lady who treated me was rude, brisk, and left me with a really painful bruise. I knew right away that she had bruised me as her hand slipped and it hurt a lot! However, when I mentioned it she told me it was my fault for not holding my skin taught enough (i was) and that I should have warned her that I bruise easily! The whole treatment lasted approx 5 minutes and when I left there was someone else waiting outside. I believe it wouldn't have happened had the lady allocated sufficient time to do the treatment properly. I am really shocked and was left quite shaken by the whole experience.
So, back to my original question, which is can anyone recommend another salon and therapist in the area (Balham/Wandsworth Common)? Thank you!
