Another new property and more excellent service from Pete and Vanessa. Pete is prompt and thorough and is someone who believes in old fashioned service. He goes above and beyond to ensure you are happy with absolutely everything. We had him out to do our pest control spraying and a thorough termite check, post purchase of our new house. He'll be back to take care of that in a few weeks but in the meantime we are completely pest free. His products are environmentally friendly and safe for animals and humans. Honestly can't be beat. We've been using Pete for about 10 years now and gave him his very first review on Word of Mouth and I honestly wouldn't consider anyone else for pest and termite control.

The first time I visited this salon a few years back, it was great. I came away feeling a million dollars. I then recommended it to my daughter, who has had 3+ lots of foils over the last couple of years.
The first time she saw Tanya, who was wonderful and had been my colourist as well. The next few times, she saw others who were not so impressive. The last time she went the stylist was busy telling her what an awful job the previous person did on her hair (which she knew), but she didn't realise it was done in that salon and cost her over $350, by the stylist standing right behind her with another client that coloured her hair!
That gave her hope that this woman knew what she was doing and would do an excellent job on her hair. Well, this time she walked away with terribly bleached and damaged hair that was meant to be 'golden blonde.' It was anything BUT golden blonde. Her hair was literally fried, and it cost her almost $500!!
Sadly, because she is quite young, she didn't speak up and walked away unhappy with her hair and $500 poorer for the experience. Sadly, this salon has gone downhill so badly.
One bad experience, by one stylist, is one thing, but to have several from multiple stylists is a lesson learned and time to walk away.

My daughter recently went into this salon and paid for a full head of foils and a haircut. She explained to the owner that she wanted a nice golden shade of highlights to naturally compliment her hair colour. The outcome was nothing short of an extremely amateur and disappointing mess. I've honestly never seen anything like it in my life!

Firstly, there were very few foils actually put in her hair, considering she paid for a full head. The outcome resulted in uneven colours ranging from golden blonde (very few) to peroxide blonde, and I mean WHITE, to one side of her head! She had the added BONUS of a tiger stripe on one side of her scalp where the dye leaked above the top of a foil. They were unbelievably uneven, some (the white ones) abnormally chunky with absolutely no foils/colour underneath.

There was absolutely NOTHING natural looking or complimentary about these foils. They looked completely fake, unnatural and embarrasing.

They rushed her out of the salon at the end of the day with her hair still wet, assuring her it was 'so beautiful' - disguising their mistakes really well.

She usually wears her hair up which was impossible after she got the foils as one side of the top of her hair had huge peroxide blonde stripes and the other side was sparsely streaked with a darker blonde. Honestly, it couldn't have been worse if a 3 year old had done it!

I can't begin to tell you the tears that have been shed over the way this mess looked. She was literally too scared to go anywhere else to have it fixed after the complete botch job she received from [Redacted].

The next morning I had to buy coloured hair spray to hide the white hair so she would leave the house. Then, after watching several youtube videos and reading other peoples nightmare experiences. I fixed it for her the best I could.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this place to anyone wanting their hair coloured in any way.

Ladies, read all the reviews you can!! Next time, we will all be going back to the hairdresser I found on here a few years ago. When you find a good one... stick to them!!

This review is for endota spa Perth CBD, Perth WA

I was fortunate enough to experience a 3 hour spa package recently which was nothing short of divine!

The mood is set from the moment you walk up the staircase and begin to smell the essential oils and see the faint flickering of candles.

I was greeted by a friendly receptionist who led me into their comfortable lounge area for a herbal tea. Again, the air is lightly fragranced with essential oils and the lights are dim to begin the whole relaxation process.

I was led into a very comfortable room by Sally, who was my therapist for the entire 3 hours. I was made to feel comfortable and she gave me the best relaxation massage I have ever experienced! I asked for a firm massage and that is exactly what I got. She asked me if there were any specific area that needed attention and she made sure she worked on those areas very well.

After my massage I had a relaxing deluxe pedicure followed by an amazing hydropeptide facial. The products are all natural and feel and smell amazing. When it was finished, my skin looked and felt amazing and I walked away feeling totally relaxed.

All products used are natural and smell absolutely gorgeous so it's quite a sensory experience as well!

Sally is extremely well trained in her craft and is friendly and professional. I can't recommend her highly enough. I will definitely be back and will request Sally for all my future treatments.

Fantastic experience from beginning to end.

Darren has over 25 years experience with all types of bricklaying. He recently built a front boundary wall for us and offered a very competitive price together with years of knowledge and experience.

The result was top quality and I would have no hesitation in recommending Darren for all your brickwork needs. He also builds retaining walls, fire places and even pizza ovens!

DBI Brickwork also offer rendering services at very competitive prices.

Large warehouse which supplies every different kind of electrical cabling that you could possibly need for projects in and around your home. Although they sell wholesale, they also sell retail to the general public at very good prices.

They also sell a large range of switches including more upmarket designer switches, circuit breakers and smoke detectors.

We have purchased several items from this company and they have always been extremely helpful and offered advice on our projects.

Great place to browse and purchase all your wiring and electrical needs.

This review is for USA Foods, Moorabbin VIC

We have placed several large orders with this company and have been very happy with our deliveries.

They offer a great variety of US foods for those of us who don't have access to it any other way. Everything from cake mixes, chocolates, cereal, bbq sauces to seasonal gifts.

Some items are close to use-by/expiry dates but they are usually stated in the description of the item so as long as you thoroughly read what you are buying you shouldn't be caught out with expired or expiring items.

They will substitute items unless you specifically tell them not to. You are given the opportunity to state 'no substitutions' in the notes section at the time you place your order. Again, as long as you read through your order, you won't be caught out with substitutions.

Shipping can take a little so if I haven't seen an update of status on the website I usually find that a quick email will move things along.

I have always found the goods authentic and of a high standard. Even close to expiry items are perfectly fine consume.

Shipping costs can vary depending on where you live but again, worth the costs for some US treat.

I would definitely recommend this business.

This review is for Berry Farm, Margaret River WA

We have visited The Berry Farm in Margaret River in both summer and winter and it's always beautiful.

They have a lovely cafe which offers great food which is either grown on their premises or locally produced. It is always fresh and tasty. It is set amongst the gardens so you are usually joined by gorgeous blue birds and other local birds while you are eating.

They are famous for their beef and red wine pie which is served with a beautiful fresh garden salad and their own Indian Tomato Relish - divine! The gourmet vegetable tart is also a big hit with our family.

We always visit the store after we have finished a lovely lunch overlooking the herb and gardens to buy a few jars of their Indian Tomato Relish, which is great on a variety of foods. We also stock up on the strawberry and blackberry jams.

They offer a huge variety of freshly made jams, relishes and wines that are made on their premises. We always come home with something new from their range.

It is off the beaten track in Margaret River but well worth the adventure. There's a nice play area for the kids including lots of grass for them to run around on. It's a lovely picturesque place to visit for all the family.

Have enjoyed both lunch and dinner here mostly on weekends.

They offer a good variety of food at very reasonable prices. We've enjoyed several different varieties of their gourmet and traditional woodfired pizzas which are always delicious.

Fettuccine Pollo e Funghi is a firm favourite which comes in a very generous serve. My husband has enjoyed a variety of seafood here and has always found it to be of a very good standard.

The free bread rolls are delicious and we always manage to eat a couple of baskets of them between us all, especially when they are straight out of the oven!

Never sit in the back of the restaurant as you will get forgotten when they are busy. We always try to sit in the front near the pizza bar and at times we still struggle to get noticed. You have to be prepared to chase your wait staff at times as they seem to serve quite a few tables.

Great gift shop which offers a huge range of new age gifts, including aromatherapy, books, music, crystals, and jewellery.

I've purchased several birthday gifts for friends and family. They have a lovely collection of hand crafted intriguing gemstone jewellery. The shop always smells divine and has a lovely calming atmosphere.

From amethysts through to turquoise, the many crystals inside Zodiax fit a variety of needs. Whether it's assisting with illness, soothing anxiety or focusing the mind, they offer crystals for almost any purpose imaginable.

They also offer a variety of Clairvoyant, Psychic, Medium and palm readings at different times.

The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable if you are looking for something specific.
