New ID Burlingtons, Manchester Review

Overall Rating

I had a great day with my boyfriend (who I had to drag in kicking and screaming by the way as this is not his kind of thing on any level) in the Newcastle branch. I thought the salon was lovely and it was really clean and all of the staff were really friendly. Courtney met us for our appointment and was really helpful, got us drinks and helped me keep my man from legging it! As well as telling us exactly what to expect that really put us both at ease. We got our hair done first off and we were both really happy with our cuts, I was offered colour that looking back I wish I had taken but at the time I was still feeling a little bit bashful. Mark looked really handsome and smart and even let Judith put a little bit of foundation on him to even out his complexion and will certainly kill me if he finds out I have written about that. I loved my make up and got some great hints and advice about how to make a bit more out of myself and I was amazed how glamorous I could look. I had my nails filed and colored and then we got changed into our first set out clothes our hair then got touched up again and we had a bit of breathing space before Tanya got us in front of the camera, we were both really nervous and lets face it who wouldn't be but Tanya was great, she was really good fun and got us really into the swing of things and even Mark had to admit that he was really starting to enjoy himself. I was feeling like a film star and wished it could have gone on and on and on! Anyway, we had some bucks fizz and waited for our photographs, and I was astounded both with how great they turned out and at the price but I felt no pressure to buy more than we could afford, well we did actually spend more than we can afford but we loved the pictures so much and we just cant stop looking at them. We have had some framed and put them around the house and everybody has commented on them. I think it gives you a real boost to have a make over, I know I am making more of an effort with myself now and Mark is loving it. I think it's a great experience for couples, it put a bit of spark back in our relationship and if you can get your man to go with you then do it, its great. I have read a lot of negative comments about this company but I have to say that I don't have a single negative thing to say about them; perhaps other people just caught them on a bad day!
My opinion, it was wicked!
