The background:A week ago, because I had heard a lot of raving reviews about Eden Salon & Spa I thought I would visit them to see what the hype was really all about!

The Review: So after my uninviting and not so warm or friendly welcome to the salon I sat down and a lovely girl prepped my Gelish removal. I was then told to choose my colour which I spent absolutely ages on :S They have SO many colours it is pretty cool and I will give them credit for that but then I ended up opting for a French Manicure as it is classy, chic and goes with everything. I had only one person working on my feet and then my hands and as lovely as she was, I did not find the mani and pedi to be thorough enough. I was there for 2 hours which was fine but the seats were not so comfy and I think it has to be a must if you are going to be relaxing for a long time. Anyways, when I was there it was quite busy and noisy but the last half hour was so nice and quiet as there was hardly anyone there! The Gelish looked good when she was doing it but when it was finished, I notice detail well and the white line was smudged/blurred on a few nails which hasn't happened in previous salons. Also when I got home, I had a nap (hehe) and when I woke up my big toe nails were smudged too. To be honest I think the salon is best for haircuts and hairstyles which I may try out one day.

The Verdict: I would give them 6/10 and this is due to how I was welcomed when I entered the salon. I found the receptionist to be quite arrogant and stuck up which turned me off the whole experience there straight away. I think Eden Salon and Spa is overrated and there are much nicer spas like Nail It and Me Time and I am sure there are others too. Also they were not as thorough as Nail It in Hawally and Me Time Spa in Al-Rai so I would not revisit for a manicure or pedicure - maybe for my hair but we will see!
That's all for now - will blog soon :)
Love & Blessings,
