Thanks to Marg for the 2 complimentary "Cleanse and Finish" kimrobinson @ Ngee Ann City vouchers worth $58, which she has gotten from Lee Hwa Jewellery.
The voucher expires on 1 Aug and she gave us only on Thurs so we like this weekend to go. Then I called up to make appt for both JC and I to find out that it was the hairstylist's last day today (31 Jul). The definition of "cleanse and finish" is actually wash and blow dry. So we tot it's nothing much and even had 2nd thoughts of going cos if we go all the way to Taka just to wash and blow, isn't it abit waste of time. but then again, I suggested to go since it's FOC anyway and we can even have lunch there after.
Good decision made! Notice the following high class services that normal salons dun normally provide:
1) Staff were professionally dressed: formal white long-sleeve shirts for guys and hairstylist in jackets, ladies in black long-sleeve shirts
2) Complimentary drinks to choose from, we ordered honey water with lemon slice that was served in a glass with transparent cover for hygiene purpose
3) Were asked to wear a black robe instead of those normal salon which only covers your clothes with a cloth. Somehow I feel that it's more personalised like some hotel room services
4) There were individual private rooms for haircut, hairstyling etc meant for VIPS or even actresses/actors who wanted more privacy for themselves
5) During the hair wash session, the staff would ask if we prefer cold/warm water and if the pressure he applies for the hairwash is ok for us. It's as though we were in a business class flight served by sauve-looking air steward. One more thing was that the head n neck massage was really gd!
6) Randy Ong styled my hair to create a more-volume effect which curls in at the bottom and he helped to trim my messy fringe as well. I was happy with the results cos I knew that I was in good hands from the way he blowed and styled my hair!
Towards the end of the session, we were given more welcome vouchers valid for 3 mths or 4 mths but no signing up of packages were offered. Cool. If we want to do pedicure, we can even get complimentary manicure. Pretty tempting! :P
